![]() Of course they design the app so this pretty much has to be a Creative Cloud app. Draw is essentially a vector-based scratchpad for jotting down quick ideas and then exporting them to a desktop application where you could do more work on them. Adobe Illustrator DrawĪdobe Illustrator Draw is another in Adobe’s line of extremely dumbed-down apps for iOS so they can say they actually develop for the platform. They want a laughable $3.99 a week, $4.99 a month, or $29.99 a year for an app that is kind of a novelty at best. The app was severely hamstrung when it was changed into a subscription model to use the full features of the app. The result being a really clever little app that has virtually no barrier of entry for simple graphic design. But to be fair, it is a professional level design app that can do a hell of a lot more than Procreate.Īssembly was built on a neat idea: have a vector design app where the shapes were already pre-created and users just picked and manipulated an extensive list of objects to create their design. The app though, to be sure, can be complicated, and is certainly not as intuitive as something like Procreate. I think they’ve largely found many innovative was of solving these types of problems. A vector app like Designer can do A LOT, the program needs to not make you toggle down into endless menu windows to find what you are trying to do. Where the Affinity suite of software really shines is modern user interfaces designed for simplicity and ease of use. They are quickly becoming many artists and graphic designers alternative to the expensive Adobe Creative Cloud as they are pay-one-time applications and are very reasonably priced for apps that are so fully-featured and capable.Īffinity Designer is akin to Adobe Illustrator, it is a complex and quality vector-based application. The Affinity suite of apps from Serif are incredibly impressive and seem to get more so all the time. $19.99 | Developer Website | Official Tutorials ![]() ![]() If you want to say hi where I’ll see it, leave me a comment below. So back to sketching and working on new things to share on this art journey of mine. Hell, I’ve even deleted my social media apps from my devices to make it just a little bit harder for me to check back in on the roaring tide of…nothing much at all. Let the site autopost the links and just forget about it. I’d just much rather sketch and finish stuff and post it on my blog where it exists for longer than the 15 seconds of spotlight you get on social media in the hopes of grabbing a few precious “likes” so you can tell yourself you’re good enough. If you start feeling that you aren’t doing good enough, remember, you are, and maybe it’s just time to take a break from the never-ending timelines of margaritas and masterpieces (new band name). We start to think that maybe everyone else can just hammer these amazing pieces of art on the daily, but it’s a curated image. We have to remember, people aren’t sharing all the pages and pages of sketchbooks before showing that finished piece. But there comes a time when instead of getting inspired, we’re just feeling like we’re not measuring up. It can be a lot of fun to converse with talented people and cheer them on. You’ve saved me so much money and frustration.One of the hardest things we have to do in terms of our digital content intake these days is decide when it’s taking too much of our time and energy away from the things we really want to be doing.Ĭertainly, for creative people, it can be invigorating to see all the other work that other artists are doing. The price for this app is perfect, in my opinion (and honestly it’s even a bit low, for all it’s able to accomplish) and I really want to give a huge thank you to everyone who worked on/is working on this app and updating it. It’s basically Photoshop, but without having to pay the ridiculous Adobe subscription every month. It’s got everything you could need and MORE (I especially love their amazing smoothing/line weight algorithm and pressure customization). Unfortunately, even though Procreate is indeed an amazing drawing program, it still doesn’t really satisfy my need for the familiar feel of photoshop and drawing with photoshop brushes. I’ve been using Photoshop on my PC for drawing, photo editing, and professional work for the past six years and when I finally got an iPad with Apple Pencil support I was really hoping Procreate or one of the numerous other drawing/editing apps would be able to replace the feel of PS. ArtStudio is just too good not to leave a review for.
