Hello!

If y'all don't mind, could I get some tips and tricks for making good art on Autodesk Sketchbook / MedibangPaintPro for Windows? I don't have a touchscreen; I either use the trackpad or the mouse, but I can't get my art to turn out well. Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you!

Honestly, I suggest sketching on paper first. That way you dont have to worry about sketching circles and squares with a trackpad/mouse. That way you just have to line and color.

That's what I've been doing, and it works alright, except some lines don't come through when I scan it onto the computer, and then I have to eyeball it anyway. ^^"

It definitely makes things much easier, though! ^^

As an Autodesk Sketchbook user for almost 3 years now, I'd be more than happy to help you! First off, I wouldn't scan pictures, since they tend to come out lighter and harder to see. I would, like Intergalactic said, sketch my drawing out, take a picture of it with my phone, send said picture to laptop, then line it. Yes yes it's a process, but it's highkey worth it. I give props to you for using a trackpad/mouse, I could never-

With that being said, in Autodesk, there's this feature called "predictive stroke" and this helps wobbly lines look more smooth! However if you turn it up too high it'll ruin the line by trying to maoe it something else. I typically use that for shapes.

I would take a pic with my phone, but the camera is HORRID. >.<
Everything comes out blurry and awful because it was a cheap phone. >.>
However, I'll definitely play with the predictive stroke feature more. ^^
Thank you!

Yeah, predictive stroke is a lifesaver! I struggled for quite a bit working with my eight year old computer's trackpad lmao, so yes, getting a pen and tablet that registers pressure will be a life saver. They can be pricey, but are so, so worth it.

I am currently saving up for that, aha. ^^"
But until I can buy one (hopefully a standalone, aha), I've gotta work with what I've got. And my tablet hates me when I try to connect it to the internet (it's such a PAIN to update apps on there anymore >.>), so drawing on there and emailing it to myself is out. -_-

I dont know if I'm a little late to respond to this, but I use Sketchpad the online one. and I do it exactly the same way you do... e.g a normal laptop, the touchpad thingy. like you said in your top post. I haven't seen your art yet.
.
but I tend to use the Sketch tool That you can use on the site. this allows you to do a rough sketch and then you can do the main one. The only problem is doing it on a laptop takes a LONG time.
trust me I understand. I've once tried drawing my art on paper or a sketchbook and try to take a picture with the camera of the laptop as then you can change the brightness of the picture which by doing this you can then see the lines more clearly do you can draw over them.
.
It's nice to meet someone else who is doing art like this. ^^
Because I am doing art on a laptop it tends to take up to 1-3 days just to complete one piece if it's really detailed. I can't really think of anyways to help other than suggesting take your time and go slow, otherwise, it might turn out bad. :D
.
Hoped I helped in some kind of way. and I'd love to see your art sometime.

I figured going slow might be the answer. :')
I haven't used Sketchpad that much, but I might try it again sometime. ^^
