autodesk sketchbook review

Those who like to sketch should of, by now, have heard about AutoDesk Sketchbook, arguably one of the best apps for sketching available. As such, it makes sense its developers have created a Windows 10 version, recently releasing a touch-optimized version of the software.

For those who have not yet used AutoDesk SketchBook, the app has a very powerful brush engine with around 140 brushes to play with. They perform the same way as the x86 app, so nothing new to learn: just jump in and begin taking advantage of what the brushes have to offer. Futhermore, the app works with unlimited undo and redo, along with unlimited layers.

Here is a list of the top features:

  • Designed specifically for both pen and touch input on Windows tablets
  • The entire screen is your canvas with a full screen workspace and unobtrusive user interface
