Kids Doodle - Color & Draw: A creative app for kids

Posted by Unknown Selasa, 20 Agustus 2013 0 komentar

I am sure that almost all the kids love to draw, paint or simply splash colors from their crayons or sketch pens. But I have seen, every time they start drawing they need a new drawing page and this could soon become an unmanageable task for their parents.

Now, I must say Google play store has something or the other to cater all your needs and for all age groups, even these little artists were not ignored. Kids Doodle is the drawing app which I believe is one of the best for kids, using it they can draw or paint or do whatever they want in a super easy way.

The main menu of Kids Doodle is very easy to understand, there are just three options to choose from, ‘New’ to start a new painting, ‘Photo’ to choose an existing photo from gallery, or ‘Gallery’ to choose from the existing paintings created through Kids Doodle.

Once you have chosen any among the three options, you will land up on the painting screen, where at the bottom there is a toolbar menu showing a minimum set of options. Options like, ‘New’ to make a fresh start, ‘brush style’ options, ‘eraser’ if something went wrong, ‘undo’-‘redo’ options, ‘save’ to save your masterpiece and finally a unique ‘movie’ option. We will see what this ‘movie’ option is, later in the post.

Kids Doodle provides 18 different styles of brushes to choose according to your mood and requirement. You can chose from the range of a neon glow brush, spray, multi-color, circles etc. You can undo or redo the last few strokes or if needed, can erase unwanted lines / strokes using eraser.

As you save the just drawn painting using ‘Save’ option, the picture will be neatly organized under Kids Doodle folder and can be accessed from photo gallery.

Kids Doodle - fun to play with

Ok, the highlight of Kids Doodle app is the ‘Movie’ option, where using this option you can play back the steps taken while creating the drawing, like a movie. It is very cool to see the painting being created from the scratch automatically, you can even increase or decrease the movie playing speed.

SketchBook Mobile: Fantastic drawing / painting app with professional touch

Posted by Unknown Minggu, 16 Juni 2013 0 komentar

SketchBook Mobile is a drawing application with a professional touch. It offers a lot of features for the beginners as well as professional alike.

You get a range of brush styles from simple to more fancy and amazing brushes to draw the beautiful drawings, complete with the full color palette.

Layers are also available (upto 12) to create more complex and stunning graphics. SketchBook allows the user to choose a picture from the gallery or make use of the phone camera to click one, for adding those special effects. Pictures can also be used for layers. Transparency level of layers can be controlled along with other features like rotating, scaling, moving to name a few.

Something I noticed though, the SketchBook app itself is not that heavy, but once you start drawing especially with the help of some of the fancy brushes, noticeable lag can be observed. This is my experience on HTC Desire S (which only has single core), I am confident the latest and more beefy smartphones can conveniently handle the load.

Here are some screenshots from the SketchBook in action.
