#I drew this on my phone with ibis paint last night

A quick icon art of my new salmonid boss!! during their night wave/known occurrence (which is only a lowtide event), there's red mist that ghosts above the water they arise from

Last night got bored and installed ibis paint on my phone to try my hand at digital art again, it's been about three months seen I've done it so I don't think it's terrible. I'm use to using medibang, not ibis

I drew macaque because I think he's neat, line art sort of messy though. Hope you can at least enjoy my shading and highlights I did, they are the only things I like doing.

Used one of the Ibis Paint bases cuz the outfit literally just popped in my head and I was like "holy damn"

hello!! I'm so sorry to send an ask again, but I totally forgot to ask this, this is a follow up to my last ask about what art program you use, and as a struggling artist.. who kinda wants to move on from ibis, do you have any art program recs ??? I'd thought I could ask since you are one of my favorite artists and I adore your art :] again, so sorry for so many asks!!! have a good day/night, <3

Ooooh not a problem at all!! I'm so flattered 🥺, I got a little wordy so I'm gonna stuff my answer under a cut XD

I haven't used too many programs, so I can't give you a super wide review, but I can speak a bit about these:

Artrage - DO NOT USE IT. LEARN A BETTER PROGRAM PLEASE OMG SO MUCH TIME WASTED ON IT IT CAME FOR FREE WITH MY TABLET I DONT RECOMMEND IT

Photoshop - basically the most powerful software you can find. However, from what I've heard, other cheaper programs can do the exact stuff PS can do and I would advise doing some research on those alternatives. Other artists can def tell you about them!

Autodesk Sketchbook - I use it to doodle on my phone when I can't use my computer! It's fun! And I don't have a stylus but I imagine it would be pretty powerful-and always helps that it's free! Drew this down below with it :) It supports my style well enough

FireAlpaca - Last used it a looooong time ago, and from what I remember, it's good for being free! Plus you can animate in it! It's beyond frustrating to animate in it, but still possible! Made this down below in it a couple years ago~

Aggie.io - Especially fun to use because you can draw with friends in real time! It has a very similar feel to Photoshop, lots of the same functionality, but also missing some of the powerful tools. I drew the one on the left entirely in aggie, but then I colored it in Photoshop :) Con is that it's browser based... I think you'd need wifi to use it...

Side note: The majority of my friends use Clip Studio Paint, and I think it would be a good investment! They do great stuff in it! I just don't know anything about it, never used it ^^ I've also heard good stuff about Krita!

Sorry for being so long winded >< I hope I helped at least? Remember in the end you'll be able to make any software work :)
