I am sceptic too about workflow and ease of working to get to a certain result but in my opinion though, many, if not most think in a strange way about the tools and workflows offered.
It's like the discussion I've heard oh so often about synthesizers and synthesized sounds, discussions about the most realistic and natural sounds of which synthesizer. Synthesizers are synthesized, hence artificial sounding by definition. If you want realistic sounds, buy a sampler go out and sample the sounds from where they come. The same thing counts for drawing and graphics in general. If you want a real drawing on a computer, grab a pencil and paper and draw, then scan it in. If you want digital images, use your computer, fiddle around with vector graphics or 3D graphics or even gimp, mypaint and equivalents. Don't turn things around, and try to get a analog result with digital tools, or a digital result with analog tools. I don't use my classical guitar to create a techno beat. I use a sequencer and a drumcomputer and neither do I try to create a classical guitar-tune using fluidsynth or even linuxsampler... I grab my guitar and play it. http://www.bartart3d.be/ On facebook <https://www.facebook.com/pages/BartArt3D/169488999795102> On Twitter <https://twitter.com/#%21/Bart_Issimo> On Identi.ca <http://identi.ca/bartart3d> On Google+ <https://plus.google.com/u/0/b/116379400376517483499/> 2012/8/26 Ralf Mardorf <ralf.mard...@alice-dsl.net> > On Sun, 2012-08-26 at 08:50 +0200, Ralf Mardorf wrote: > > On Sun, 2012-08-26 at 01:13 -0400, Melvin Ray Herr wrote: > > example of what inkscape can create/edit. > > > > > > http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Inkscape0.45.png > > > > No doubt about it, this isn't a deformed animal, but it's still airbrush > > like.
