Decent app, but paying to color is crazy!!
Thankfully I mainly needed this app to sketch my drawing, but the line work tools were extremely limited, and having the ability to access colours being blocked by a paywall is honestly very bad when there’s apps like Adobe Fresco that are free! Shoutout to Walter though, he’ll always have a special place in my heart ❤️

Could’ve been the best drawing learning app
Although this app was abandoned 4 years ago without recent updates, I write this review as a plea to the developers and people in charge to consider revamping this real drawing learning app.
For years I watched others a few others try to make drawing teching apps, and most didn’t come near teaching the way this app does from the book lessons. Even now, no app is on this level of teaching making a drawing from shapes, using proper tools, and shading, and so on. The complaints and bad reviews are just people frustrated with the app not being updated anymore. I don’t know what happened or if the licenses are still good but this app could be a moneymaker and no doubt should have been.
Walter Foster has long made some of the best books on teaching how to actually learn to draw. I own some of the books these lessons are based on. There are a ton of books on drawing but not many are made to actually teach the skill by people qualified to teach it. But Walter Foster books are. They look older and don’t have eye catching huge flashy titles like “Draw 50 monsters.” (Those books don’t teach, it’s just someone who copied parts of the design over into steps. That’s not how you learn drawing. Drawing is shapes, and training the eye to draw them, usually from big to smaller details, just way Walter Foster does in these lessons.)

really hard to learn
It’s hard to learn with this app. Plus when I was catching my Dragon and the app glitched and it didn’t save it
Terrible. Not good beginners , for learning basics
Doesn’t teach drawing basics or any technique. It only shows a picture and how to copy it. Not good for learning basics
My PAID FOR lessons don’t download after buying a new iPad.
I’ve bought most of the IAP’s in the past but, since changing my iPad and choosing ‘restore purchases’ the downloads just sit there doing nothing.
