Nikolai indicates he’s at the moment also part of another project called Procreate, a painting-app that allows artists to work on ultra-high definition images. As a matter of fact, almost all images you can see here were created by Nikolai using Procreate on the Apple iPad. That clearly shows you really don’t need expensive tools to create detailed work.
