CopyIt The Grid Drawing Method Reviews

Indispensable for artist’s

Gillian74 on

Why do you need a crop tool? You should have edited your picture BEFOREHAND! This app is invaluable for transferring an edited photo to canvas or paper ready for the painting. It's like a renaissance electronic pounce bag! If you don't know what that is then you're not a proper artist! It doesn’t need music.....unnecessary!

Game changer for aspiring artists

Don't buy any old rubbish on

This is a great App for artists. You pop in a picture from photos etc. then can see it as black and white, Notran or other formats / levels of grey scale. The grids allow precise copying or guidelines and the colour picker is almost as good as real paint pro. Get that as well and your up and running with creating great paintings. You’ll need paints and brushes and canvases too of course. It’s only an App just a very useful one imho.

Wonderful

This is everything I need. I nearly bought a Lucinda Drawing Tool. I got this instead and there’s no regrets!

I don’t buy many apps but so glad I got this one. I use it all the time for my art. I am a coloured pencil pet portrait artist, and find it suits all my needs. All the grids and different aspects of the app are so helpful. Would highly recommend.

The Best Drawing App Out There

This app has helped me understand shading and has helped me improve my drawing ability immensely. It has given me the confidence to draw independently and enjoy drawing and painting purely as a hobby. This is without doubt the best drawing app out there !!

Copyit is so good

I find this very useful app for helping with my art work. Drawing accurately for portraits - with or without the grids works well. On magnification I can size to whatever I want and use the same measurement on the drawing. then I don't need the grids. Recommend.

This app IS worth paying for...

This app is so far ahead of rival apps that it’s hard to compare. There’s just about everything you need in a grid app, and the extras are so well considered e.g. the greyscale tool which is invaluable for painting. I’d never even have thought about music in an app like this, but it’s such a practical touch once you’re aware of it. I’m continually impressed by how well this app helps in the creative process.
