There's more. One extremely important feature of EX you forgot to mention is converting 3D to linework. That you cannot do with photoshop even as far as i know.

I use the comic book feature of EX to generate sketch books as well as comics. Every time I do a new sketch, or a picture I generate a new page. The advantage is I can see an entire months worth of sketches and pick out pictures worth completing, and at the end of the month, I can batch export the entire art pad in a few clicks. The time this saves over doing individual fiels is enormous. exporting and naming an entire month of pictures individually used to take hours, now it takes minutes.

Are their any differences to the brush engine in EX. Specifically I was wondering if the ribbon setting have a random single output option. It seems to be missing from the pro options when it shouldn't be hard to implement, considering there is a random string output _or_ a single output. Random single would be extremely useful which is why I considered it might be limited to EX

So for a beginner ex is just fine. Olso I have a question it says Export animation cels and exposure sheet not with pro. But doss this mean ik can't save animation without a background like for alerts for twitch or GIFS
As a csp Debut user, I can tell that its lack of so much compared to the other versions (no perspective ruler for example). So if you think of using it as a pro you should at least get the PRO version.
I would use it for just drawing , I have another app I could do animation on
I think you should compare Clip Studio Paint Pro and EX to Gimp and Krita. Because from the looks of it, I can do all this in free and open source software. I get that some companies require the use of either Clip Studio or Photoshop. But unless you get a license for free, I don't really see its purpose. Maybe I'm wrong. And please correct me if I am. But I just don't see it.

So just to be clear: in order to access the comic tools you NEED to buy EX? Or is EX entirely for animation? I don't ever plan to animate, but I do plan to become a full-fledged manga artist down the road, and a program that actually creates panels with a text editor seems like a godsend. I'm here as a long-time Sai user looking to upgrade, only because Sai doesn't behave with many new tablets, least of all Huion...
