Media size

It would be great if there were watercolour sheets sizes to choose from ie full sheet, half sheet and quarter sheet sizes

Original owner of CopyIt, the grid drawing method.

CopyIt has saved me a lot of time with the grid method. I love the color selector. In some of my paintings, the little crevices make it difficult to see the dark colors in the shadows. The movement of the shadows helps me select the dark colors and the depth of the shades. I’m enjoying the CopyIt app!

Great app

Good app with many very usual features. The new ruler is particularly needed for detailed work. A screen lock function would also be useful for tracing details.

CopyIt

I'm a professional painter and work mostly from my own photos. I have found this app great so far and think it is well worth the investment. My recommendations would be for different ratios to be made available or a grid option of standard canvas sizes to use in cropping and then creating a grid for an image. Being able to enlarge each section of an image is great! Also, more detailed instructions would be helpful. So far I have not figured out how to choose a specific number of columns that vary from the standard settings. ??

Buggy

This is a good idea, but has a number of bugs that make it difficult to use

Fantastic product for oil painting

There’s a learning period when you start using this app. I still don’t understand everything this app can do. I use it with most of my oil paintings that are done inside my studio. I use this app with a smaller iPad, with Velcro attached to the back of the iPad . I can place the iPad on top of the easel with the other side of velcro. I can move to different sections of the photo to see details. I think it’s one of the best apps for artists!

Update: I’ve been using this app for several years ago! I get my perspective, color values, etc. I share this app to my artist friends. It doesn’t matter where your skill level is, this app can help you. I tell them to play with the app and get familiar with the different ways you can use for your art. Buy it, work with it until you comprehend the tools available for you!

Mrs

This app is brilliant. Well worth the money and really easy to use. I have lots of photos on my iPad and this app has enabled me to make accurate enlarged drawings of them. I like how you can save multiple projects ,so that I can have more than one drawing on the go . Lots of other useful features like grayscale, onion skin etc.... Very clever little app that any budding artist can make good use of. Thankyou.

This app is so clever and can be used in different ways !

I use it for the grid method for drawing and for tracing but I also use it to turn my iPad into a light box for colouring vellum !
There’s an onion skin mode and you can can posterize the image which I then put through a projector to break down the image for creating under paintings either in mono or original colour ! If there would be one thing that I could say to improve would be to be powered by metal for faster speed and give more photo shop like posterize to give further definition with the different colour groups but very good app ! Fully recommend !

amazing

amazing thank you

Awesome

Love this app so far. Lots of options and so far working like a charm. Love that it has an instruction guide and things are clearly written. User friendly too. Thank you so much.

Indispensable for artist’s

Why do you need a crop tool? You should have edited your picture BEFOREHAND! This app is invaluable for transferring an edited photo to canvas or paper ready for the painting. It's like a renaissance electronic pounce bag! If you don't know what that is then you're not a proper artist! It doesn’t need music.....unnecessary!

Game changer for aspiring artists

This is a great App for artists. You pop in a picture from photos etc. then can see it as black and white, Notran or other formats / levels of grey scale. The grids allow precise copying or guidelines and the colour picker is almost as good as real paint pro. Get that as well and your up and running with creating great paintings. You’ll need paints and brushes and canvases too of course. It’s only an App just a very useful one imho.

Wonderful

Best aid to drawing I have come across

Updates

Not enough updates.

Packs a Punch

This is everything I need. I nearly bought a Lucinda Drawing Tool. I got this instead and there’s no regrets!

CopyIt

I don’t buy many apps but so glad I got this one. I use it all the time for my art. I am a coloured pencil pet portrait artist, and find it suits all my needs. All the grids and different aspects of the app are so helpful. Would highly recommend.

The Best Drawing App Out There

This app has helped me understand shading and has helped me improve my drawing ability immensely. It has given me the confidence to draw independently and enjoy drawing and painting purely as a hobby. This is without doubt the best drawing app out there !!

Copyit is so good

I find this very useful app for helping with my art work. Drawing accurately for portraits - with or without the grids works well. On magnification I can size to whatever I want and use the same measurement on the drawing. then I don't need the grids. Recommend.

Fabulous!

The best app for artists I have ever used! You will be able to place everything perfectly!

Not user friendly

Love this idea. Was referred to this by a fellow art student. It’s impossible to resize the grid or photo even though options exist for it. Wish it worked. It would be nice to resize my photos for a large canvas
