First Snow...

My 30 minute sketch for the CGSociety Daily Sketch Forum.  You can see that I am using some of the brushes that David Bentley made.  They can be found here: http://www.sketchbooknews.com/news/custom-brushes-by-dave-bentley.html

My first trial run with Sketchbook Pro

 

My first sketchbook pro sketch...

Yes, I blatantly ripped off this guy,

but I was just taking the brushes for a spin.

Sketchbook Pro

I recently switched from Photoshop to Sketchbook Pro for my drawing.

I really like Photoshop, but my CS version was no longer compatible with Lion and I just couldn't shell out the $1'399 for the software just to have CMYK capabilities.

My set-up now is pixelmator, Apple's built in Color-sync and Sketchbook Pro.

I love Sketchbook Pro since I don't have to switch a lot between mouse, tablet and keyboard. I was using the shortcuts for Photoshop, but the zoom/scale/move interface of Sketchbook is just as quick.

My gripe with Sketchbook Pro was that I lost all my custom brushes as well as brushes that I had gathered from other Photoshop users.  And even though Sketchbook let's you customize brushes, I didn't feel like creating them all again.

But I found a great resource that lets me convert my Photoshop brushes for Sketchbook Pro and I will be posting some of my sets here for everybody to download.

If you would like to share your custom Sketchbook Pro brushes with me please let me know in the comments.

Thanks!!
