Making the most of your Wacom, with Pablo Muñoz Gómez – Tip 3: Customizing Your Pen Buttons

October 29, 2024

Welcome to Making The Most Of Your Wacom, a 10-part series of videos full of tips and tricks for how to maximize your productivity and creativity with your Wacom, hosted by Pablo Muñoz Gómez. Pablo primarily uses ZBrush software, so many of the tips will be especially relevant for 3D sculpting! But they’ll also be useful no matter what creative software you use with your Wacom device. We’ll be covering everything from setting up and customizing your pens to creating custom radial menus to using your Wacom accessories to the fullest.

Here’s what this series is going to cover:



Tip #3: Customizing Your Pen Buttons

In Tip 2, Pablo showed how you can physically customized your Wacom pen. For Tip 3, he shares how he customizes the buttons and functionality of the pens with the different software he uses to create his work.

From Pablo: “Iʼm also going to cover how you can customize different pens (in case you have older pens from other devices) with different shortcuts so you can have access to various features and tools depending on the stage of the process you are in.”

Every artist has their own creative ritual, whether it’s the perfect cup of tea, a morning walk to clear the mind, or that burst of inspiration that hits at just the right moment. 🫖🕯️🎧 Maybe it's lighting the perfect candle to set the mood, or sketching out ideas on an old notebook. Whatever it is, these little essentials set the stage for our best work. For me, it's all about my Wacom tablet. Wacom has teamed up with my club, @wearethedesignkids, to make sure students have the right tools from day one. With the right gear in hand, we can build our own creative rituals and refine our craft. So, what’s a must-have in your creative ritual? Maybe a special sketchbook, a cozy corner, or the perfect playlist? #WacomPartner #WacomForEducation #digitalart #inspiration #wacomintuos

🎨✨ Navigating license agreements as an artist can feel like a maze. Too often, we’re faced with contracts that lean heavily in favor of clients, leaving us with little protection. For artists like Zeynep Alpay, finding a way to make these agreements fair and transparent has been a true game changer. Now she can focus on what she does best, creating art, while the details are handled with Yuify.  🔒 Want to see how artists can truly protect their rights?
