Hey tumblr- I’m looking for a recommendation for a painting software!
So far I’ve been using Photoshop, but for technical reasons I need to switch it up (it’s been driving me insane).
So can anyone recommend a painting software which is PS-esque and possibly free? or at the very least without monthly fees..
Bonus points if it supports PS brushes :)
I recommend ClipStudio Paint! (Formerly manga studio) you can download brushes and things, and it’s pretty much just like photoshop but more accustomed to painting. It’s a one time payment, and usually they have a deal on for Black Friday (don’t know if it’s still on) but it’s certainly less expensive either way than paying a ridiculous amount for photoshop every month. You can download it online and there’s tonnes of tutorials around if you’re wanting to see how it works.
You can get the pro version but according to my lecturers here at uni it’s really not worth the extra money.
Hope this helps!
Oh! thank you!
Sounds promising ! - I’ll give the trial version a run :)
