Ipad Pro Question
-
When my daughter Layla was asleep last night I couldn't help but sketch on it haha. Here's a sketch of UK politician Nigel Farage...

Oh, and don't expect this forum to be a nice experience on the iPad. This forum's software sucks on mobile devices and the iPad is the same.

@Ace-Connell I agree - my iPad goes crazy sometimes on this site if i have it horizontally - so i often end up having to surf with the iPad vertically which fixes the craziness - but is not very good for viewing art - your caricature is awesome!! Have you been to the Schoolism website? - some seriously awesome content there for subscription price - there is a caricature class from Jason Seiler ...pretty cool stuff - ..........so i just watched Will's review of the iPad pro now that he's got the apple pencil and he seemed just as happy with it as you are - ...Apple Pencil is selling for almost $170 on Amazon right now ...price gougers cashing in on Christmas... things should settle down after the holidays though. Thanks again for giving your perspective on this. It was very helpful.

@Ace-Connell Hey Ace, or anyone else using the iPad pro. I finally got my pencil and have been loving it but have you noticed unusually fast battery drain on the iPad ? This only seems to happen when I'm in Procreate using the pencil but as I don't use the iPad for much else I don't have a decent comparison. I've noticed my battery is gone at about 3 hours. Wondering if that seems normal or if I need to take it in to the Apple Store for an exchange. Sketch looks awesome.

@Jonathon-B 3 hours seems a bit extreme. I have mine on full brightness when I'm in Procreate and get maybe 6 or so hours solid drawing whilst streaming music via Apple Music and sending that to my Bluetooth speaker.

@Ace-Connell thanks, I thought that seemed extreme too. I'll take it in and have them look at it.

@Ace-Connell Glad it's not just me. This is my first time on the forum and I'm using my iPad Pro and screaming "WHY IS EVERYTHING SO SMALL!"
BTW I'm really enjoying the forum and everyone's art and advise. I don't know Nigel but I really like your sketch of him. -
@lindsayraecarr Just got the iPad pro yesterday (apple pencil is still two weeks out) - and i have the same issue with everything being very small - i think the site is not optimized for mobile and iPad - my iPad air goes crazy on this site sometimes too unless i hold it vertically - does not happen on any other site though - anyways...welcome to the forum!

@Kevin-Longueil Thanks Kevin. Ordered the Pencil in November so I've had it for about a week now. Really like using it. Second best purchase of 2015 behind the iPad Pro for me. I'm sure you'll get lots of use out of it.

@lindsayraecarr I didn't realise people were still struggling getting Pencils! That's crazy to me! I feel really lucky I got one a couple of days after the iPad Pro release date and I was even annoyed about waiting those couple of days haha
