Sketchbook
Sketchbook installed in any graphic tablet is like a sword in any artist's hand. It has enhanced the quality of creativity and improved my sketching and graphical representation a lot.
PROSThe software is open to all and is free to use.
CONSIn my opinion, the software has not any demerits for initial users.

An amazing software but.....
I'm old enough to remember using the old glass bottle Magic Markers but since going digital, with the help of Sketchbook, Photoshop and CSP, I find I am more productive in terms of speed and quality of work. Drawing in Sketchbook is incredibly intuitive and satisfying, I only wish I could open more than one file at a time.
PROSI think the drawing brushes and pencils for linework are some, if not the best I have found in a drawing app. I especially like the snap to curve, elipse and perspective rulers.
CONSI am a storyboard artist which means I am usually drawing and colouring a number of frames at once, sometimes as many as 30-40 frames. I would love to be able to open up a number of frames so I can achieve uniformaty of line and colour across the frames. I also dearly miss the Copic colours you used to have.
Reasons for switching to Sketchbook
I found Corel Painter to be too bulky and slow. It also did not provide me with the accuracy of linework that Sketchbook offers me.

Benefits and struggles of Sketchbook
Sketchbook has a great variety of brushes, allowing you to recreate your favorite traditional media or adopting a new technique and style. Sketchbook is ideal for those random drawing ideas you get while out of the house (remember the software doesnt reach its full potential unless it's paired with a pressure sensitive stylus)
CONSWhile you can get anythin you may need for sketching and drawing, there are some functions that are limited in sketchbook that you can get in other drawing softwares regarding editing, heavy rendering and vectors

Why I enjoy using sketchbook
It was a wonderful experience, it's still one of my favourite drawing and painting software on Mobile phone.
PROSSketchbook is a software that allows users to easily draw/sketch, paint and create illustrations. It is a software I would advise a lot of illustrators to get. The brushes present in the software are very helpful when drawing or painting, also it supports the use of stylus for mobile phones
CONSThe only problem I have with sketchbook is that when I use it on my mobile phone along with a digital graphics tablet, I find it difficult to draw lines at a go compared to when I use Autodesk on my laptop with the same graphic tablet

Software stupendo per artisti
Ho installato anche la versione per il cellulare e collegando la tavoletta grafica posso disegnare anche da lì. Ho notato che c'è anche la funzione timelapse quindi, posso registrare passo per passo tutto il procedimento dei miei disegni. La consiglio a chiunque, anche a chi vuole imparare a disegnare e si approccia per la prima volta ad un software come questo
PROSUso questo software da diversi anni in quanto amo disegnare in digitale. E' facile da usare e da installare. E' dotato di tantissimi pennelli e può essere utilizzato sia da pc che da tablet. La qualità delle grafiche è pazzesca , ho fatto tantissimi disegni e sono super soddisfatta. Anche l'interfaccia del programma è carina e personalizzabile.
CONSDopo svariati anni che lo uso non trovo difetti in Sketchbook. Sono proprio soddisfatta.
Reasons for switching to Sketchbook
ho deciso di cambiare perchè lo trovo più comodo e più indicato per il disegno.

Non potrei farne a meno
Io sono davvero talmente tanto soddisfatta del programma da averlo addirittura nella barra dei strumenti in fondo al mio desktop. Comodo, semplicissimo, con ogni pannello completamente personalizzabile, realistico davvero stupendo.
PROSAdoro la vastità delle opzioni di scrittura, ha una vastissima libreria di pennelli e sono davvero molto realistici e funzionali.
CONSIn realtà ho impiegato un pò di tempo per rispondere a questa domanda, non ho nulla di questo software che potrei dire che non mi è piaciuto o che mi è piaciuto meno anche paragonato ad altri concorrenti. E' gratuito ed è perfettamente paragonabile a qualsiasi altro programma a pagamento. E' pieno di funzioni ed io lo utilizzo con il mio Surface 7Pro, Scrivendo direttamente sullo schermo riesco a realizzare anche ritratti perfettamente. E' fatto davvero tuto molto bene.
Reasons for switching to Sketchbook
trovo la modalità di disegno digitale molto più semplice e veloce su Sketchbook

great creative tool
An awesome tool for my presentation work. It is intuitive, very easy to use and allows you to explore more of your creative side that you cannot do with a regular sketchpad and pen.
PROSApart from it's wide selection of brushes and pens, Sketchbook allows the user to create architectural perspective views from it's built perspective grids and customizable vanishing points.
CONSit would be nice if it allows scaling of objects and grids.

Muy fácil de usar
Comienzo a realizar los bocetos de mis diseños y patrones en este software, debido a la comodidad y lo rápido que puedo crearlos, y luego los paso a otros softwares cuando realmente quiero algo más elaborado. Me siento contenta con este software.
PROSLo que más me gusta es que es muy fácil de usar, tiene una variedad de pinceles que permiten dibujar de forma intuitiva, tiene las herramientas básicas para hacer figuras y dibujar cómodamente. Se sincroniza rápidamente con cualquier tableta gráfica. Puedo exportar a diferentes formatos y la app es excelente.
CONSLo único que no me gusta de este software es que, al no crear vectores, no permite escalar la imagen ni sirven para imprimir.

Book in a Hand with lots of custom pens

Free and easy to learn
I love using sketchbook for drawings and I especially like that you can import any photo or picture you have saved on your phone, change the transparency, so you can trace over it and make it your own with brushes.
PROSI love that it's an app for your phone that's free and has lots of features included, everything you need to draw and lots of brushes- pencils, pens, spray paint, watercolors, acrylic, inks and crayons
CONSI haven't found any cons, the app always opens up easily and it's quick to export your drawing. Maybe some other apps have additional features but I've only try sketchbook as it was the one that had the best reviews compared to others when I searched.
