Just like Procreate, Adobe Illustrator is incredibly popular in the digital art community. Download Illustrator for iPad, free, with in-app purchases (opens in new tab).

Illustrator on the iPad has plenty to offer artists (Image credit: Ben Brady) (opens in new tab) The app as a whole package is sleek and smooth sailing, plus it's only a one-time purchase of £8.99/$9.99 in the Apple App Store meaning that it's kind on the bank account, too. The downside is it's only available for iPad. We love the new 3D painting features, which mean you can now create pretty much anything you like on the app. Plus, Procreate's colour library is like no other with its ability to create your own palettes, colour options and even colour recommendations. From the colour picker to the brush size, there are so many options to help improve your workflow. Our testing asserted that Procreate's biggest selling point is its flexible and customisable interface. However, if you're wanting to know more about this brilliant app then have a read through our Procreate 5.2 review. The app has taken the digital art world by storm with its many different functions, versatile interface and 3D painting abilities (it's actually compatible with Zbrush, Blendr and others). The likelihood is that you've already heard about Procreate. Download Procreate from the App Store for $9.99/£8.99 (opens in new tab).(It also changed the opacity and blending mode, which is a little bug, but it shouldn’t result in merged file).Procreate is great for drawing, and has new 3D tools (Image credit: Glen Southern) (opens in new tab) I just checked appimage Krita 4.2.8 and it worked perfectly fine: the only thing is that layers have different names, but I believe it’s normal for tiff files.įor the fill layer, I also checked and for me it only converts the fill layer into a paint layer, but the result file is still layered. If you save it properly as tiff and you don’t get any warnings and make sure you uncheck “flatten the image”, and you still get a merged tiff, please tell us which exact version you have. Since ArtStudio is quite new, it might use the Photoshop type of multilayered tiff and just because it can’t open the tiff completely, it uses the rendered/merged result (which… i don’t know if it’s used in tiff files, but maybe it is). Do you have layers of different color spaces (which is possible in Krita, although that’s kind of an advanced and less often used feature)? Relevant bug report: Īlso if you open the same tiff file in Krita, does it have layers or not? Because there are two kinds of tiff layered files: the standard one and a Photoshop-based abomination, and Krita doesn’t open or save the abomination one (Of course it’s a joke with this abomination, but for some reason Photoshop uses a different standard of tiff files than the standard says and than any other graphics program uses).
