SketchBook Pro review

Ready to create hardcore illustrations or just wanna doodle away on your iPad? SketchBook Pro for iPad is Autodesk’s paint and drawing app that brings its powerful desktop paint engine and streamlined tools for iPad with an easy to use interface and loads of features for $7.99 in the App Store.

SketchBook Pro for iPad features a large 1024×768 full-screen drawing area, with support for 2 and 3 finger touch and swipe gestures to easy panning and zooming around while you draw. Pick from over 75 brush types like pencil, pen, markers plus photo brushes to create accurate and realistic sketches. Flood, fill, smear, and more.

The SketchBook Pro iPad app emulates pressure sensitivity using a synthetic system so your brushes fade-off. Undo or redo up to 10 times and create up to 6 layers for complex yet dynamic drawings. Files can be emailed out (even in PSD format).

SketchBook Pro is amongst the top 3 painting apps that are releasing iPad versions of their apps, including Layers for iPad ($6.99) and Brushes iPad Edition ($9.99).
