Hello everybody,
I'm really excited about the imminent release of 0.43! I've been playing with the latest pre-release and I'm wondering if anyone has tips on the settings for the calligraphy tool. I'd like to use Inkscape, and in particular the calligraphy tool (I think), to do line work for my pencil drawings. (For those of you into comics, I'm essentially wanting to use Inkscape to do my inks digitally.) But so far I can't quite get the sort of taper response I'm looking for. Is it a settings issue or am I asking the program to do something it's not quite ready for?
Here's a post on my sketch blog where I'm playing with it and sort of comparing it (albeit unfairly at this point) to Expression 3 (which I'd rather not use):

So, any suggestions on best approaches/settings/etc. for freehand line art?
Thanks,
Matt Jordan
