Pencil problem

Added 2020-04-16 02:31:26 +0000 UTC

Guys, tonight I had a problem with my Apple Pencil. It fell VERTICALLY to the floor from my drawing table and you can guess what happened. Well, see it for yourself:

This is a big problem.

At first I couldn't make the Pencil work at all, but it seems the problem is just the tip, not the entire Pencil. No, I don't have any replacements at hand!

All the Apple retailers around my region are closed for obvious reasons, and the only obvious solution I had was to order a set of tips directly to Apple. The delivery estimate is about a week from now...

I haven't done that. Yet. I actually could manage to draw some lines with difficulty, since I have to place the Pencil in a vertical way for the flat surface to actually touch the iPad screen. Yay! But that's not ideal at all.

Check the attached video to see what I mean.

I'll try to work tomorrow with the Pencil as it is now. If I don't get the results I want (see video) I'll order the tips ASAP and wait at least a week for delivery... I'll let you know if it's necessary to wait a week to finish and post the new artwork.

Weird days, indeed.

Good night,

Rolando
