Read full description

Intersect Studio is a reference and study tool for understanding how 3D forms meet, overlap, and define structure. Build geometric scenes, visualize intersections, and explore structure through outlines, lighting, and perspective. Capture precise visual references for drawing, design, or spatial study. FEATURES Intersections See exactly where forms meet with precise intersection lines. Toggle visibility, adjust thickness, and control whether occluded intersections are shown. Structure and Outlines Show clean outlines around forms. Enable see-through rendering to reveal internal edges and understand complex geometry. Lighting and Shadows Adjust light direction with a sky-dome interface. Control intensity and enable shadows for added depth and realism. Perspective Control Smoothly transition from orthographic to wide-angle to telephoto views. Frame your scene from any angle. Precise Transforms Move, rotate, and scale with axis handles or scrubbing controls. Enable snapping for exact measurements in world or local space. Shapes and Scenes Start with six basic shapes: planes, cubes, spheres, cylinders, cones, and pyramids. Combine them to create complex arrangements. Save and Export Save scenes and build your own reference library. Export high-quality PNG images directly to your Photos library. Workspace Customization Toggle procedural sky, infinite ground grid, and coordinate axes. Adjust your environment to focus on what matters. Full History Undo and redo support for all transforms, additions, and deletions. Work confidently knowing you can always go back. --- Start exploring today!

About

Sketcha

Read full description

Sketcha is a complete drawing and animation studio for iPhone and iPad, and the first one with a real third dimension built into it. SKETCHA SPACE: DRAW INTO DEPTH Give your layers depth and tilt, then orbit around your own drawing. This is genuine 3D, not a parallax trick. The page dissolves into open space, a perspective ground grid sweeps beneath you, planes foreshorten as you turn, and foregrounds swell past the camera. - One tap stages your whole layer stack in depth. No numbers to work out, just named shelves from Very near to Horizon. - One finger orbits, a pinch dollies, two fingers pan and roll. - Fly to layer lands you exactly 1:1 on any plane, so you keep drawing on it, even a tilted one. - Save viewpoints as bookmarks, name them, jump between them. - Turn those views into a cinematic flythrough. Drawing in Space, orbiting, depth, tilt and bookmark jumps are part of the core app. A BRUSH ENGINE THAT FEELS RIGHT Pressure, tilt and velocity drive size, opacity and taper. Adjustable stabilisation and StreamLine smooth your line without lag. QuickShape snaps a held stroke into a clean shape. Touch and hold to sample a colour with a live loupe. Seven hand-tuned presets and an eraser to start, then Brush Studio to build your own: grain, dual texture, scatter, jitter, colour dynamics, pressure and tilt response graphs, and four render modes. LAYERS WITHOUT LIMITS Raster and vector layers, groups, symbols, text and shapes. 27 blend modes, layer masks, clipping masks, alpha lock. Select by rectangle, lasso or magic wand, then move, scale, rotate or warp. Smudge, liquify and clone. Adjustments for curves, colour balance, gradient map, motion blur, sharpen, noise, chromatic aberration and halftone. Symmetry, drawing guides and perspective assist. Import photos, SVG and layered PSD. ANIMATION, TWO WAYS Draw frame by frame with onion skin, a light table, per-frame hold and adjustable FPS. Or keyframe everything: position, scale, rotation, opacity and effects, with a bezier easing editor. Add bone rigging with IK and smooth weights, morph layers, lip-sync mouth keys, motion paths, a keyframed camera, an audio track to sync to, and scenes to hold a whole film. EXPORT PNG, PNG sequence, GIF, MP4, sprite sheet, time-lapse, and a rendered Sketcha Space flythrough. .SKETCHAKIT: AN OPEN KIT ECOSYSTEM Brushes and their textures pack into a plain .sketchakit file that anyone can build, share or sell. Import a kit in one tap, export your own from the brush library. No walled garden and no in-app store taking a cut. YOURS, OFFLINE No account. No sign-in. No ads. No cloud. Your work is saved on your device, autosaved as you go, and never uploaded anywhere. The only thing that ever leaves is anonymous usage and crash data, and you can turn it off in Settings. Made by Gambit in Turkiye. SKETCHA PRO Sketcha Pro is an optional subscription that unlocks multiple scenes per project, bone rigging with IK, morph and lip-sync animation, authoring Space flythroughs, and MP4, sprite sheet and time-lapse export. Everything else is included in the core app. We never limit your layers, your canvas or your frames, and we never watermark your work. - Sketcha Pro Monthly: $4.99 per month - Sketcha Pro Yearly: $14.99 per year Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. A subscription automatically renews unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
