The BEST FREE Drawing Software - Autodesk Sketchbook Pro (Ft. Alita Battle Angel and Venom)

[@PopCross]

UPDATE ON SKETCHBOOK: It was just brought to my attention that Sketchbook has been acquired by another company and is no longer free on desktop. It's now $20 American or $27 Canadian. The tablet version is still currently free and it is still possible to find download links to the older free versions online such as 8.7.1 which is what I'm using currently.

[@sonnyboneses6745]

I'm not finding it anywhere.

What do you use to draw, what tablet I’m looking to get one. Please and thanks

[@budsif]

Thank you for making this video! I've been using sketchbook pro for over a year but always felt like maybe I was stunting my development by not using one of the "big guys" in the software world, like Procreate or PS. I've been trying to transition over to Krita or Sai but I just feel so comfy with Sketchbook. Before you I haven't heard any professionals talk about sketchbook, which made me uncertain. But this is all the validation I need, sketchbook works for me and my art has grown immensely since I started drawing digitally.

[@PopCross]

That’s awesome to hear! Another great artist who uses it regularly is Trent Keniuga! His channel is awesome too!

[@Cutbyabz]

I use this for all my drawings which i do on my tablet

[@Razznm]

I’m a little late, but I love this app. And yes, I draw on my phone. It’s easy once you get use to it!

[@digilifeindia8557]

Only problem on phn is pressure sensitivity....it kind of simulates that but its not good enough....but with a graphic tablet sketchbook is more then enough for me....

[@MattHalpain]

I suck at drawing but I enjoy it as a hobby. I've been drawing since 1985 traditionally and I'm in my mid 40's and ever since I got my 6th gen. iPad in 2018 I have switched to only drawing digital. I'm going to check out Sketchbook on iPad as I like what I see of the app in your video. Thank you for your art channel on YT.

[@BriarDavisOfficial]

I love using auto desk sketchbook to, I’ve used it for every digital art I’ve made

[@vegetasamaaa8063]

I draw/sketch in sketchbook then ink and color on procreate. Drop n fill is so convenient lol.

[@zackanima8833]

I've been using this program for about two years and still didn't know how to use it as efficiently as you do, watching this video really helped me learn a few new techniques I can apply onto my on art style, You have no clue how thankful I am after realizing you were using Autodesk. Thank You PopCross Studios for helping improve my own art once again!

[@ikazuchioni]

Thank you for posting this! The Photoshop skills that I have learned are just average, that being said, I am a little bit hesitant with trying out other drawing software. But this one is not the least intimidating, it actually looks intuitive and very user friendly. I am excited to try this one out as I have just finished downloading it.

[@boopagm8275]

AUTO DESK SKETCHBOOK FOR THE WIN! IT'S MY NUMBER ONE FOR YEARS

[@starwantrix5324]

That's a great tutorial! I've been drawing in sketchbook for a year now, it's easy to use, what I like most about it - the design! Whenever I go to photoshop, cause pros draw in it, just to try, I get immediately terrified by all the stuff that's happening on the screen, and I'm getting confused, it's simply too hard for me. While in sketchbook I'm like flowing in the water, everything is simple and beautiful and very easy to learn and draw, absolutely love it!

[@MirkwoodCrow]

Thank you so much for this video!! There are just too many artists who only praise procreate and photoshop, which a lot of people can't afford. I wanted something easy to use and free with my Samsung Galaxy Tab s6 lite I'm gonna get tomorrow. Everyone criticized Autodesk and kinda made it look bad but because of you, I'm going to get it right away when my Tab S6 lite arrives :D Thank you! ❤️

[@jorge54]

Honestly more people should be talking about Autodesk and or using it. It's super great for people who are trying to get into digital art but still used to pencil and paper. I've been using it for like 3 years and I love it a lot just started using illustrator and Photoshop and it's been hard to learn the software's lol

[@carktheshark]

Just bought an iPad because of you! I’ve wanted to start drawing digitally but didn’t how and where to start! You’ve really inspired me and helped me start!

[@michaeljohnson9507]

As a long time user and prior subscriber of sketchbook pro and consider myself well versed in the software, I still found this informative and learned some new tools for shading. Keep it up.

[@OwolabiEsther]

I love your personality! I love this channel! I subbed! With notifications on!

[@lynnbarnett5140]

I first learned of Autodesk sketchbook when I first got a Samsung Note 2, it was the Express edition which I was extremely happy with and paid for the mobile version of Pro. And have had that version on every Note phone and tablet since, thanks for sharing the Sketchbook love

[@ArtwithAmarBrisco]

I use clip studio, krita and sketchbook pro. I recently stopped using photoshop after 30 years of using it. I have drawn allot in sketchbook pro on my note 4 phone and my tablets (IPAD and TAB S3).

[@guido69x]

I was pretty ceptical about to get into digital art,cause ,even if I know how to draw,theres an huge learning curve about the software and m.o. using it! Sketchbook Pro totally elliminates that!! The layout its pretty obvious and easy to work with!The tools are amazing,from vertical and horizontal mirroring,predictive strokes, or even make our own brushs from scratch (literally). I think just needs a vectorization feature to make it perffect. Nice video and Alita vs Venom was a great idea and it turned out great ;)

[@arizonacan5635]

Glad this finally got the recognition it needed. I remember when I was in high school and it was in 1.0. You had to pay $5 for the pro sets and later it got better with each year. Eventually when it became free to use even better sets and features came out and I still use it to this day

[@digilifeindia8557]

Autodesk has a student licence program...under which you can get any professional product at free of cost...autocad, maya anything you name....

[@the_elder_sibling]

I'm even obsessed with its android version which is also amazing and easy to use,

[@gendoikari6062]

I thank you for sharing this tutorial.! I come civil drafting in AUTOCAD, and trying to do my old sketches in digital form using this software that you make look so easy to use... Cheers!

[@theoroderick782]

this is genius, thank you for sharing this. Just satrting to use digital and sketchbook and this helps me understand a bit more how this works as opposed to how the usual traditional art works

[@zsmall]

The video was so informative, I've been using Sketchbook for awhile but you told me some stuff I had no clue about. Thank you!!

[@PerryPictures]

100% feel the same! Also have a sub to Adobe CC and still do all my drawing in Autodesk with few exceptions (sometimes I work in Krita or Procreate) but Autodesk is the most user friendly and capable software I’ve ever learned and it holds up. I’ve been using it since 2010/2011

[@littlepixie1437]

I absolutely love this app too! But since I only have my phone back then. I used my phone. Yes, I create masterpiece (not really) with mah fingers!!! But really, I'm satisfied with my art in my phone.

[@Joshua-ju5uc]

Highly enjoyed this video. Both for the software and your own tips. I highly recommend sharing more tips for those of us struggling due to either too little detail or focusing too much on a lot of detail. Like in making the backgrounds

This looks amazing. I think I'm try it out sometimes. Thanks man for introducing this to me.

[@theohallenius8882]

I was using Sketchbook Pro for illustrations for over a year or so and it was my first drawing software (I paid for Pro version because free version had a limited number of layers and other harsh limitations), but once I switched to Clip Studio Paint I've noticed a significant improvement in quality of my drawings, day and night difference. Would even recommend it over Photoshop for illustration purposes, because it has dedicated tools for this that no other software has.

[@nikbowman3478]

I can't use this or the thing talked about in the video on my android tablet

[@davesartbook]

I use my phone to draw, I use ibispaintx, I think it's mainly designed for people who like to draw in a manga style but I find it gr at for a cartoon style. I've even tried realism a few times.

[@astinbryson9949]

I LOVE Sketchbook! I recently downloaded it (when I first got my tablet, it was pay-to-use, but now that it's free...) and it's quite reminiscent of GIMP in my opinion! I adore GIMP and certain aspects of Sketchbook reminded me of a better version of that! Thanks for making this video! It was super helpful and I love that art piece!!

[@havenhs97]

Omg! I thought i was the only one who prefered sketchbook over ps. I've been using it like for 5 to 6 years, and it's really confortable. The only things i think it lacks are, clipping masks, liquify and more layers on flipbook mode

[@axie545]

Hey thanks for this! I draw for fun and recently picked up a tablet, but I was finding Photoshop really hard to get into (and my version is really old so I couldn't figure out if maybe the features I was looking for just weren't available or all that easy to use yet). It's really cool of you to get the word about about this program! And I'm subscribed now so draw on your phone, coward.

[@andee6245]

I draw on my phone. When i started digital art I used ibispaintx (I recommend it for beginners btw) Then I got tired of it coz it was hard to blend colors there, so i switched to autodesk. Ive been eyeing it for a long time actually,, i just didnt know how to use it. Everything looked so basic compared to what i was used to. I gave it a chance anyway and i use it up to this day. The brushes are amazing, the colors are easy to blend, and ive grown to love the simplicity of the app. Go try it!
