I use Procreate and Krita at the moment.

This was just a test drawing. My skill is diminished because I am trying to get used to drawing upright rather than flat as I am used to. This was don’t on a Chuwi Ubook (Microsoft Surface knockoff). When I use my laptop, I have a huion drawing tablet that I plug in. It is much easier than this upright tablet. Any tips for comfortability when drawing on upright surfaces?

    Imas I stated it is a MS surface knock off meaning it has a keyboard I need to use for shortcuts. I can’t keep the keyboard on it while flattening it. I could do away with the keyboard but that would mean all the features I use shortcuts for I would have to find the menu equivalent. So much hassle. I want to learn to work on an upright canvas like a painter on an easel.

      I used to use Krita on a Microsoft Surface Pro with the keyboard off. If you’re willing to dedicate time to tuning your configuration, Krita will let you customize the toolbars to have the action buttons you want. There are also some touchscreen-specific gestures you can do. I think you tap two fingers to undo? It’s been a while since I used Krita on a touchscreen.
