For any digital artists out there? I know a lot of people use photoshop but what’s a good free/pay once and it’s done software that you recommend? I’ve been wanting to get into digital art.Apr 17, 2021

I used to use Firealpaca since it was free. I bought Clip Studio Paint not too long ago now and have been really enjoying it! Theres so much it can do that I have yet to discover 
And as an added bonus, they frequently do half off sales

I used both Gimp and Medibang on pc for many years but since I got an IPad it has all been about Procreate
•
I use FireAlpaca and I love it! It's super easy to use and you can do animations there as well which is great! I do sometimes use sai when I wanna play around with brushes and textures tho
•
Procreate all the way. It’s around $10. However if you want a really good free one try out IbisPaintX
•
Procreate is a personal favorite of mine! I also heard that Paint Tool Sai is nice!
•
Procreate for sure. Its only 10€/$, and its so easy and with great features. True you need an ipad and apple pencil but like me, you can find those 2 hand for great prieces. I actually use the ipad 6 gen 2018 and I love it. It's like 500€ and I paid 170€ second hand.

Hi! I personally only use paint tool sai because i cant seem to comprehend more than that LOL. But anyways clip studio is a great option as it works on both ipad and pc and as i recall its like $49.99 for the pro version and its a one time payment. BUT if you absolutely beed to work in photoshop for some reason, photoshop cs2 is free
•
I used autodesk sketchbook for YEARS before switching to CSPaint, now I also mix in procreate 
•
Clip studio is great. Before I that I used Autodesk sketchbook which is free and I could still use it. CSP was more of a quality of life improvement. I only used photoshop for editing and dont see why people would use it for drawing since csp and other drawing programs exist.

•I use pro create but I heard Krita is good for PC and I think it might be free? I used to use Paint Took Sai and GIMP when I was on pc
•
•I use Clip Studio Paint but it’s like $49.99 for the pro version. For free ones Krita is good and I’ve heard good things about Firealpaca too
•
•definitely go with Clip Studio Paint if you looking to buy. Krita is a good free alternative.

Hello, I’ve been using procreate recently. I use an iPad for drawing and paid $9.99 for procreate. I’ve had it for a little over a year. Hope this help~
