Manga illustrator Shotaro Tokuno live drawing

January 30, 2011 by Yein Jee

A video which shows Japanese manga illustrator Shotaro Tokuno (得能正太郎, loose translation) drawing a manga-ish character with Wacom’s Cintiq 21UX pen tablet. A bit long winded (15 minutes long), but pretty interesting…

The concept is similar with other tablet computers (iPad etc.) but with higher resolutions and more levels of pressure sensitivity.
