### 1/5 — Pencil sketch paper

*2022-09-23, version 15.8.2*

I trying to work on paper sketch but didn’t work some way it came out 2 set I got to pay for it is scrap

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2014-11-17, version 1.2*

This used to be a good app. Unfortunately the developed has not updated the code in some time and it no longer works with the current iOS (at this time, 8). Don't waste your money.

### 4/5 — Low resolution is the only drawback

*2011-06-04, version 1.2*

Great app with ultra realistic results, very fast and fun to work with, but results are low resolution and it’s a pity for such a stylish app!

### 5/5 — App

*2011-04-08, version 1.2*

Tried out the lite version. It was great, had to get it! (:

### 4/5 — Stunning results

*2011-02-27, version 1.2*

Blows me away. I thought the sample pics might be faked, but they are typical of results. Ultra fast and so real looking. I love this app! The only catch is that the results are low res. If only they were full res, this would easily earn five stars.
