Addictive! Stunning results possible! Great for puzzle-piecers.
The "paintings" Ive made are so much nicer right off the mark than any oil painting filter in a retouch program. Watching the painting take shape under your fingers is immersive and relaxing, almost like working an intricate jigsaw puzzle.
The oil paint and chalk tools are amazing, and the brush type, the paper textures, and background colors can be changed at any time.
The shake to undo feature is nice, but if youre like me and dont like flinging expensive pieces of technology around, you can undo from a menu selection.
It only undoes one step back however, so if you overwork a section or work into part of the picture that you didnt intend to, your choices are to live with it or start over completely. And another word of warning, if you save the painting to you camera roll, then youre done, theres no going back to a canvas after that.
With that said, theres almost no way to make a serious mistake. Its just pure painting fun. Its still a little buggy but I am impressed at how quickly and how often and this developer addresses issues. All in all it seems to be a quality product. Im really looking forward to playing with this app for a long, long time!
(PS I have an iPhone 3G running 3.0 and have never experienced crashing or problems opening the app.)
