    This is super neat! Out of curiosity, how are you liking Adobe Fresco? I generally use Adobe Sketchbook, but now that they are replacing it and the others I was hesitant to find other peoples opinion on Fresco before trying it out. Also- have you ever used Procreate before? Just seeing what program I might want to use once I can’t use Sketchbook anymore. Thank you for any input! :)

    Thank you! The first art app I ever had was Adobe sketch, and I really liked it. I used it for a while, then purchased Procreate because it had more brushes/features. I pretty much just used procreate after that. Then Adobe fresco came out, and I downloaded it, but still didn’t delete Adobe sketch. I like fresco a lot, and it is a step up from sketch in terms of features/performance. If I had to rank those apps, I’d say my first favorite is Procreate, because it’s extremely user friendly and has more brushes than sketch or fresco. My second favorite would be fresco, because it’s basically a slicker, more advanced sketch. I still like sketch, but it’s more of a gallery of my old work now, I don’t really draw in it anymore. But you don’t have to delete or replace sketch to download fresco, it’s possible to download it separately. I would suggest you go ahead and download fresco and see how you like it. Keep sketch as a backup. Hope this helps and good luck! :)

    Thanks! This helps a lot. I think I might as well try them both- from my research and now your opinion it sounds like procreate is well worth the money, and I have been wanting to get it for months now xD Adobe is actually discontinuing Sketchbook and Draw- not sure if you knew that? So I’ll only be able to keep Sketchbook until December. That’s why I was looking at Fresco so I can still use my Adobe ID to transfer my existing work over. Thank you so much for your feedback! I really look forward to trying these out. :)

    Gosh, I had no idea they were discontinuing sketch! Glad I already transferred {:| Good luck with your art my friend!
