Hi All:

Just a note: As to the latest versions of Manga Studio and MS Surface Pro 2, stylus pressure sensitivity is not compatible...but single lines and block painting works just fine.

 Hi Gustav --

Yes, Fresh Paint looks not bad.
But as John noted on videos Manga Studio ( http://manga.smithmicro.com/manga-studio.html ) is used. 
I didn't know about Manga Studio and I'm quite impressed with it. 
I'm not going to start comics/manga authoring but I suppose Manga Studio could be used (here) for web sites and/or UI/UX drafting/sketching.

Do you own MS Surface Pro 2?
If yes, do you like it?

BTW, I have got collected links on the set of hardware/accessories, which could be used with MS Surface Pro 2 - here it's (do you have anything else/better to add to this list? ):

>Also, AFAIS when they draw on the screen by an electronic pencil then the screen gets a bit "sagged", and I thought that Surface 2 Pro screen has strong glass not plastic surface, which can be sagged. Is that a special transparent plastic they use on top of Surface 2 Pro screen glass?

>>Hi Shamil
>>
>>They are both Surface 2 Pro.
>>Not sure about the software but the second looks like Blend with the dark theme. That would surprise me though.
