Paintstorm Studio

Not only does digital painting support a large number of techniques and enables you to quickly correct any mistake you made, but it also helps you obtain the highest quality of color and is one of the best choices for layers and transparent effects.

Paintstorm Studio is a comprehensive program that provides you with a plethora of brushes, pencils, buckets, airbrushes and numerous other tools to create drawings and paintings as if you were working in the traditional way.

Comes with a customizable GUI and multiple floating panels

While it may appear rather bland and overwhelming at first, you will be happy to learn that the interface is customizable. To be more precise, you can add and remove any panel, move them to the desired location on your screen, leave them as floating panels, scale them down or up and make them less opaque are just a few of the options available to control your UI better.
Then again, the lack of tooltips can make the learning curve slightly steep for users who have not worked with similar applications. In addition, since the app allows you to design a workspace to the very detail, then there is a chance that some users can get distracted.

Provides you with a plethora of brushes

The impressive number of brushes available is one of the features that makes the application stand out in the crowd. In fact, there are several categories by default each with dozens of options available and you can always import your own utensils, in case you do not find the one that you need for a project.
The application enables you to organize brushes in categories and move them up or down in their dedicated panel, a feature that can be useful when you are focused on a project and do not want to be distracted. In addition, you should keep in mind that you can bind the frequently used features with hotkey combinations that you use on a regular basis.

A handy tool for anyone interested in digital painting

In the eventuality that you are interested in honing your talent as a digital painter and have limited funds at your disposal, then Paintstorm Studio can provide you with a flexible and feature-rich environment where you can practice.
