What are the best apps to scribble on the screen of the iPad?
Penultimate
As one of the first to arrive in the App Store, Penultimate is well known, but their quality is also responsible for the success. Among the apps that style moleskine, the work of the Cocoa Box has its advantages.
The principal is the simulation of pressure. Since the surface of the iPad has no sensitivity to pressure (as in tablet design professionals), the application creates this impression by turning the thickness at the speed of the stroke. Unlike cheaper competitors (and even some more expensive) features are also softer, and leave the gleanings more ... real?
The Penultimate is available on the App Store for $ 1.99 and, recently, developers of shopping inserted in-app to expand its collection of papers. Among themes for storyboarding, games and music, each package is between $ 0.99 and $ 2.99.
I would say the tool that is missing is the text. Mainly for notes would be nice to merge traces and texts in the pages of each book created as write with small letters without the help of the keyboard is difficult.
SketchBook Pro
In the folder 'Drawing' I have several of my iPad: Penultimate, ArtStudio, Brushes, Adobe Ideas LiveSketch even uninstalled and others for lack of use. If the goal is to design, my main indication is SketchBook Pro Autodesk.
Besides the large collection of brushes (brushes), controls the color, thickness and opacity, the Autodesk product has a clever way to position the menu options and take advantage of the multitouch gestures of IPAD.
SketchBook Pro is U.S. $ 4.99 in the App Store, and worth the download!
Adobe Ideas
I could begin this paragraph by saying that the Adobe Ideas is essential to have the iPad, it has several tools for vector drawing and did not cost me anything.
Entertaining, before finishing the post, I realized that the app is no longer free. Now it costs $ 9.99 for iPads and iPhones, plus $ 0.99 for the option of releasing layers (layers), which is almost essential. If you are a fan of vectors, you can choose from Adobe, but I believe SketchBook much more complete and more accessible.
More, more, more
As it was mentioned above, before SketchBook, my tools were mainly Brushes and ArtStudio. Although both require good interface improvements, drawing apps are great! I also leave the tip of a simpler option: the LiveSketch for $ 1.99, he created his own style of pencils for illustrations, and is a Universal app.
Another name that is not mentioned, but it must be mentioned, is Procreate.
He has received excellent reviews in the App Store and tech blogs, and a beautiful interface and menu options. Your download is $ 4.99.
What can improve
The large negative draw on the iPad is the support of the wrist. When you hand in supporting the screen surface, it can identify as a dash and interrupt the task. Some apps notes have the option of placing an area with no touch sensitivity on hand to support her, but in drawing applications, unfortunately, still have not found good examples of this tool.
Some illustrator among readers? Tips and opinions are always welcome! Meanwhile, I will remove the rust fists and practice more in the pencil and stylus, hehe!
