Hi Brad. Thanks for all your good videos. I have a question for you: I have a Wacom Intuos Pro M. Unfortunately one of my cats jumped up one day I was drawing and made an annoying scratch. Not terrible deep or big. But deep enough that I can feel a slight click and wave on the line when I draw. Is it possible to eliminate those scratches some how. Like with a bit of filler and some sanding with grain 1000 or so?

@@Choedron As it's not a display you COULD, but no matter what it's going to change the feel in that area. So you can just deal with a small scratch or sand it down and have a larger area that just feels different. I guess you could also try to fill the scratch somehow. You could even try finding a screen protector of the same size and placing it on the tablet. It will again change the feel, but at least it would be constant across the full tablet. In my experience consistency is the most important thing if you want smooth lines.

I think it is shown subtly that Apple Pencil is a little bit superior from their interaction. Wacom is 'slower' at first.

I can only tell from my experience that the pressure curve is much better for Wacom. Especially the lift of cursor is what I miss on Apples pencil and it takes alot more pressure to get an initial stroke. With Wacom I can draw very thin and light lines much easier

I guess it’s a matter of taste, for me that’s exactly why I prefer (by far) the Apple pencil, it just feels more natural, in reality you have to apply more pressure on a pen or pencil in order to create a stroke, I had been a wacom user (and fanboy) for about 15 years but when I used the iPad with an Apple pencil it was uncanny, it does feel so real, in my very humble opinion and experience there’s not even a point of comparison, hands down the iPad and Apple Pencil win, and also in price since the best wacom experience is far more expensive than any iPad while the old pencil on a basic iPad has exactly the same functionality as the 2nd gen on a Pro.

As someone using them both on an almost daily basis, main takeaway is: Both they will get you where you want to go. The feel of each is different though. For those used to standard pencils, Apple's version comes out more naturally (and the drawing experience feels more natural too). Pressure sensitivity might be a tad more refined on Apple's Pencil too. But these days I've been working more on my 24" workhorse tablet and in the end what counts is getting the job done and both tools are capable of it.

Most newer models of screened drawing tablets come with some sort of textured cover or protector pre-installed. Wacom goes farther and actually has etched glass on their newer models, the glass itself is textured so you don't get that slippery feel and dont need a cover. Although, I don't think it's worth spending wacom money to get a slightly better handwriting experience, they are freaking expensive.

Fun video ... i enjoyed it ... thanks for that

The most important question for anyone who is focused on drawing and doesn't make a living from digital art should not be what is the better pen, but the better overall concept. I'm 100% with Wacom when it comes to pen quality, drawing feel, flexibility and features as well as supported applications. And yet I draw significantly more on the iPad. It's smaller, lighter, mobile,, has great battery life and a great display, and the Apple Pencil is just fantastically integrated into the system. I don't know the latest Samsung devices yet, but so far nothing on the tablet market could hold a candle to the Apple Pencil.

On the Huion tablets, there is some sort of smoothing on the driver that make the line feel like it's lagging behind the cursor. You get used to it, I use both, one on my mac, and one on my android phone for sketching and what not. The big difference is the pressure. On a wacom tablet, applying pressure on the pen feels soft and natural. On huion, xp pen, ugee, and other brands, it feels like you get a bit of a click when pressing the pen onto the tablet surface. I've tried all of them, Veikk, Huion, XP Pen, and the Ugee 2150 and now U1200. They all got that click that bothers me after working on it for some time.

Personally I like the Wacom Stylus more. I think it's easier to control than the pencil. When you do stuff you feel the pressure go from 0 to 100. With the Apple Pencil it happens more frequently that the pressure goes from 60% to 100%. So the Apple Pencil feels more chunky. That's not a problem for many artstyles, but if you rely on pitch perfect brush (color picker rendering) control it can be annoying sometimes.

I guess that's because the tip is designed to be used with textured screen of these tablets, as they will wear out fairly quickly, it has to be small and easy to replace. The small tip means they are cheaper to make and can be stored easily so you always have a spare. That said, I'm not sure how the Apple Pencil tip wore out if you use something like Paperlike, but it seems to be more expensive to replace and storing the bigger tip need more space. I knew my Surface Slim Pen wear out quite fast after I added a matte screen protector, so perhaps it's similar. They were designed to use with smooth glass.
