The Text tool is so basic to not even bother reviewing it, I can only hope it is better in paid versions.Symmetry tool has a very noticeable issue with markers, not mirroring the actual bleed/build-up characteristics.Very limited brush options in any version, and no way to create or import custom brushes.The cluttered floating windows, "Lagoon", etc.Subscription based software, a deal breaker for me.Other basic traditional medium tools, so it lives-up to the program's namesake.

They are a highlight for sure, and likely the best markers I've used in any software (even with their no option bleed/build-up limitation).
Or using the Zoom tool (see Selection Tools image below to see it). Includes a Hard and Soft variation, with options to adjust Size and Amount erased in percentage. Paint Fill - Has one and works good, but has zero options. I really wish that was a option that could be adjusted as it is a glaring flaw to me.Ĭommon Necessities - Other tools that are primarily tools, and is surprising lacking in some software making it necessary to include them briefly. The one problem is the amount of bleed/build-up when the marker sits, which in real life varies on the paper weight and illustration board types. They respond as their traditional counterparts and really leave other software lacking in marker technology. The standout as mentioned previously here is the Copic marker tools. Of course with no brush tool options anyway there is no point in importing any. No matter what version there appears to be no way to add custom brushes, which really limits SketchBook. The subscription version offers many more, but even then brush options/properties is limited to Size, Density (opacity), and Slant. Options - A few presets of brushes, erasers, markers, and the Smear /Blur /Sharpen tools at the bottom. How it does on larger images or resolutions I do not know however. Program Speed - Quick and responsive with no lag. Online help, and tutorials/videos can help get you started as well. If subscription software is something your interested in then try it for yourself.Įase Of Use - Easy to get started, and fluid on the images which is limited to my screensize (and 100 dpi). It is definitely not Pro, Enterprise, or any other mode for sure.Įither way it is really limited, and I will review what I can. Looking for details online it appears that Sketchbook is running in the "free mode" as mentioned in their article about the markers.
