Ratings and Reviews
Great!
This is my first digital art program and I have absolutely no experience in it, yet I was able to quite quickly learn and improve increasingly every time I draw with it! There are many useful and interesting tools and brushes to make the process fun and easy! I would definitely recommend this program, also since it is quite similar to photoshop except with a lot more useful tools.
Yet another attempt to make us rent software that has no business requiring a subscription
Having been a light user of the software on my Mac, I was willing to purchase a licence to use on my iPad. However, the desire to make us rent our software (even though there are no online features I want to make use of, and literally only want to use it for drawing and painting), with no option to own the software we pay for, means I probably won’t ever purchase the upgrades to the desktop version. I don’t accept that nonsense from Adobe, and I sure as hell don’t accept it from Celsys. Pity, as I really liked the desktop version, and would gladly have paid to upgrade to newer versions. However, there are free and perpetual licence options out there that are every bit as good, and even the 3D model features that the developer keeps using to justify the subscription are available on free or perpetual licence alternatives. I am sticking to Procreate, and taking advantage of MagicPoser. There’s nothing here that competes with the value for money and features of that combination, and even if there’s something I need that it can do that those combined can’t, there are plenty of other options out there I can add to my toolset for a much more reasonable, consumer friendly, business model.
Best alternative to Photoshop
I’ve been using CSP for desktop for around 5 years, the iPad version is a fully featured desktop port which allows you to work one the same piece between both devices. The pen stability feels a lot more fluid than Procreate and with the new “simple mode” it’s a lot more tablet and user friendly. Still missing some vital feature in simple mode, but a huge step forwards!
