ASTROPAD DARKBOARD
Darkboard is a new ultra-light ergonomic drawing surface for iPad. It’s developed by the creators of Astropad Studio, long-time friends of the podcast.
They created Darkboard to fix some of the most common pain points of artists — like hand cramps, bad posture, and being stuck at your desk. Later in the episode I want to tell you more about it but Darkboard launches next week on Kickstarter. The first backers will get the biggest discount on Darkboard, you can go to darkboard.com now to join the waitlist.
