This painting of a strange duckbilled creature is my first attempt at using Infinite Painter on a Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite with the S-Pen. Painter is a really smooth experience that comes close to ProCreate.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite might be one of the affordable Android tablets but Painter runs on it like a charm. The S-Pen is a bit skinny in the hand but it feels great. The soft tip feels a bit better than an Apple Pencil (overall I still prefer the Pencil).
I feel that Infinite Painter is the closest you will get to ProCreate on an Android device. There is also a version for the iPad. The price differs by region but it is really low for such a powerful application. There is a vector-based companion app called Infinite Designer. I will give that a try on occasion.
I'm still trying to get a hang of the smudge tool but I'm loving the experience so far. I think that main purpose of the app, painting, is close but not quite as good as ProCreate but the other drawing tools are better than those found in ProCreate.
Here are some more timelapse videos on painting, though I painted these using ProCreate on an iPad Pro:
- Eye monster: youtu.be/n6WiwV_nCCA
- Happy flower heart face: youtu.be/5IesZ9HKc78
- Dragonrider: youtu.be/7-Lw6DfEwu0
- Dude eating a tasty sandwich : youtu.be/XL520ZtCq_o
And this one I started out traditionally on paper and then colored it in ProCreate on an iPad Pro:
- Disgusting Goblin-like creature: youtube.com/shorts/XWvAoHjk-WE?feature=share
This one I painted in ProCreate on an iPad Mini 5 using a Logitech Crayon which doesn't have pressure sensitivity:
- Happy worm: youtu.be/Ibylnw7piEA
