that this is nice even then i dilike it cause of akward sensing on tablet pressure. I admit it if i did not know about MyPaint and used it, i said. Looks to me more like using ball pen with markers. It is not good for advanced sketching or natural sketching. In the marketing some think IPAD/MAC users are stupid for buying same hardware at double price, that`s why they think will get free stuff then buy something that they don`t use so if you see in the video that the basic brush part it is under MyPaint defaults and only that marker is well simulated. This it is a MAC users battle, get the to use Sketchbook lite on IPAD, get them to use Artrage on IPAD (yes an Artrage exist) and so on. Remember the driout ? When you needed to use alchool to make them work again ? etc with your music hardware then when you are more advanced you are in need to buy full version.Įven if it has Copic in his name, i used that tipe of marker in childhood and it leaked paint on my hands.

Addin Gimp for crop, texture fx and color postpro and you have it final from sketch to i think it is more like the 123d program trick users to a lite version to get the pro, this is used in the music industry get Cubase, Abletone. Combine default pen with round-wet brush and you got a good workflow with no limit on canvas or colors. I don`t like Sketchbook the default burshes of MyPaint are better. This would be frustrating to learn something I can't reuse later, right ? But I guess it will be part of the marketing strategy at one moment to push user to buy the Pro version. It work pretty well with Wine on Linux, but I will not use it a lot because most of it can be done with my workflow Gimp+Mypaint with a better ergonomy in my opinion ( just a matter of taste ) and the copic colors palette is easy to download and open with Gimp if I need this specially.Īnyway, I prefer long-term vision with using/contributing to open-source softwares too, this thing is 'free' at the moment, but nothing can assure me it will stay free or be available later. This present to give this 'lite' version of sketchbook for free is a good deal and worth a download, at least a try :) On drawing community like Deviant Art, Copic are very popular. I like how this marketing adv between Copic and Autodesk promote for both.
