But only $19 at the moment, and possibly to offset the development for all these platforms - Linux, Windows, Mac, iPad. Paintstorm chose a different path and does charge a nominal fee for their software. In the previous Draw and Paint we talked about Gimp and Krita, which are both Linux friendly and both free.

Finally we have a Linux friendly program for full scale painting in our list. Maybe it's the next big thing.ДЄnother interesting full featured program with a fun name is Paintstorm Studio. Give it a go and see how it rolls for you. It's unusual to be offered such a full fledged program with no catch, but stranger things have happened.

Which is impressive for a free and well crafted app. It has versions for windows and mac, ipad, iphone, and android. It's also available on a load of different platforms, though again, sadly, not Linux proper. The interface is customizable.ДЄnother interesting choice is Medibang. The screenshot shows the mobile setup, but there is a larger desktop setup with a different layout and more tools.

Update - SmithMicro is selling their last physical copies at reduced price, as the software transitions back to Celsys, the original Japanese producer. The EX version sells for $209, but is on sale at the time of this article for $89.99 and is definitely worth the cost. Both the more expensive EX version and the standard version are available for Windows and Mac.

This is definitely worth checking out and doing a trial version. There is a nice selection of pencils and inks that render well. CPS is also a much more responsive environment for fast paced drawing and sketching.

What's more important is the large and creative toolset under the hood.Д¬PS has an array of drawing tools and drawing aids, such as a variety of rulers and perspective tools that can be very useful for map making in iso or bird's eye views, as well as top down. That being said, Clip Paint is identical to Manga Studio. The Essentials version is only $50.ДЄnother intriguing choice for map makers is Clip Paint Studio (CPS), formerly Manga Studio, which was more explanatory for what the software was designed to do. The full Painter costs around $430 but can often be gotten on a discount. Beware though, as Painter is quite resource intensive. There are versions for both windows and mac. There is also a less expensive Essentials version of the software. I've recently been experimenting with some of it's features and can say that some rather interesting effects can be achieved with it. It isn't spoken of much by map makers, predominantly due to cost, I imagine. One of Painter's key selling points is its ability to render more natural looking media, such as watercolor and inks, as well as thicker paints and underlying surfaces such as canvas. And in time, to draw and paint maps as well.ДЄnother high cost program for painting is Corel's Painter, which is a monster of a program with an incredible list of painting features. Over the years many artists used it to layout and digitally paint scenes and images. Originally, it was to be a digital darkroom for photo editing. The high end of painting software is by and large occupied by Adobe's Photoshop, though ironically it was not made to be such. Most of these come in at around the $25 to $50 price range, with a few being higher and more full featured as well.

I'll touch on some of the ones we previously listed - most of those are still good choices and you should definitely take a look at that list.ДЄgain, there are lower cost options that are interesting and we'll look at several. In that time there have been some new players to add to that list. Back in 2015, we did the first list of programs to Draw and Paint Maps.
