Description

The most advanced simulation of real paint on iOS! Get creative on a digital canvas with smearing, blending oils, delicate watercolor, and much more! Ever wanted to try painting your masterpiece but were put off by the mess and expense? Now you can!
ArtRage isn't just about color: It knows how much paint you've used so you can smear it around to spread it over the canvas. It knows how wet your paint is so you can blend it with other paints. It even knows about the roughness of your paper so your pencils can be used for soft shading.
It's not just a special effect either - ArtRage is a live simulation of the properties of real artistic media that lets you can get creative with colors and textures using tools you already know how to use!
ArtRage takes full advantage of the features of your device like larger canvases on iPad Pro, Apple Pencil support for pressure & tilt, and 3D touch on your iPhone.

Features:
Real world painting tools: Oils, Watercolors, Paint Rollers, Pencils, Crayons and more. Each tool has a range of familiar properties such as how much thinner is applied to the paint, or how soft a pencil tip is. Tools apply texture as well as color, and blend under the brush.
Add Layers to your painting and work on individual elements without damaging others. ArtRage supports a wide range of Layer Blend Modes, and layer contents can be scaled moved and rotated independently.
Import images, converting them to oil for smearing or as Reference Images pinned to the canvas as a visual guide. Load photos as Tracing Images which are overlaid on the canvas, and have ArtRage select colors automatically as you paint.
The interface has been designed to maximize your creative space without hiding away critical functions such as tool and color selection. As you paint, it gets out of the way so that you don’t have to stop and manually adjust panels.
Record your paintings! The ArtRage Script system lets you record strokes while you paint for playback in desktop versions of the product at higher resolution.
Import and Export using external services such as Dropbox, and iCloud Drive. Share your images on Facebook, Twitter, and any other sharing app on your device.

A very good app

Many tools, simple and intuitive app. Probably the best painting, drawing/sketching app on the app store. love the media and colour selection toolbars.

Very slow in responses!!! In ipad2

Too slow to draw something , it's not follow my finger in real time Please fix it or add one specific mode which is just for fast drawings

Put some hard-working in this app and we five stars!

In my opinion, the only one of its kind is procreate, but I also think your interface and layout is pretty amazing. It’s sad to see this at 3.4 when it should be 5.0 As many others have said, this app has so much potential to be so much greater than Procreate… Chin up my friend I gave you five stars and hopes that you will update this app, and make it great again, drawing apps need some competition to make iPad. The preferred tablet for artists.

Good

Just a few weeks ago I was able to turn the picture with my fingers but now I have to turn my whole iPad but other than that it’s an amazing app!!

So much potential! Just started and enjoying it so far!

No google photos on

United States

By far the most traditional art app I’ve found . The controls are intuitive , but I would love to see color assignments “stick” to a tool (such as graphite grey for pencil, while brushes keep the color I was using on them). Another “easy” feature that’s missing is the ability to have a pallete sampler to easily pick some base colors and paint away. Another feature would be allowing to mix pallet colors to blend new shades to bring it even more in line with traditional painting)

Save or you will lose everything

This would be a great app if they updated it. Crashes a lot and if you don't SAVE...it's gone. They basically rugged and left the app in limbo

Dude...no

happagirl on

So my mom made me download for no reason and it was very weird. So I tried to draw lines but it wouldn’t let me and I made sure it was at 100 opacity and I made sure it was black color but it wouldn’t draw. Also when I zoom in I can’t zoom out for some reason and it keeps crashing. Pls upgrade it has a lot of potential. Also add more tools/brushes.

Save the old one please?

7/8Time on

There is another, older version of this app, that holds many drawings of mine. It doesn’t work with iOS 14. Can it be refurbished for the new OS, at least enough for me to export my old doodles? It doesn’t need more functionality than an “export all” button.

Immediately obsolete 😭

I've been an Artrage user since v1 on desktop Mac, way, waaay back. After reluctantly retiring my beloved Wacom in favour of the iPad ecosystem; Artrage was a natural purchase. Sadly, comparing it to its peers, what once was cutting edge media simulation feels quaint, like so much CG from the nineties; there are stunning apps out there doing incredible real media simulation. What Artrage pioneered with innovative user interface that delivered an accessible digital painting experience (in the face of behemoths like Corel Painter), also feel old fashioned and even clumsy, again compared to other apps. Some of the tools or code appear ill matched to retina display; brushes strokes and other tools produc visibly pixelated results; as though it would probably look right on an old 72ppi monitor. But the real insult added to injury is that literally three days after my purchase, this app is obsoleted when the developers released a whole new, separate Artrage for iOS, rather than update this one. How very unlucky for me, and very sad that I just cannot recommend this version. That's coming from a longtime fan 😭
