User's Comments

I've never experienced a brush engine so smooth and buttery in my LIFE. I had been struggling with ibisPaint X's simplistic one for 5 years, but once I decided to take a shot at Clip Studio Paint, it was over for me. I bought the subscription (only $3.99/mo for me, which I'm fine with!) and never looked back. My art has leveled up and I am so incredibly pleased! Clip Studio is so worth it!!

It's an awesome app! I think 30 hours a month for free is reasonable. It's pretty easy to use, great brush variation too. There are no ads, either! Since I have used this app, I have not used Ibis Paint X is a while. I love both apps, don't get me wrong, but I absolutely LOVE Clip Studio. You can download a lot of brush sets, too. Also to import an image you hold the button that you use to add a layer. Overall, I LOVE this app! I very much recommend this app to people. Good experience on my end!

I honestly really like clip studio! I use the free version and thirty hours a month is fine for me. the most I've used in one month is 19. if you're more of a causal artist it'll be fine. there aren't any ads and I like that you can download brushes from people usually for free. the ui looks nice and clean and simple version is very easy to use. I also LOVE the pose models being added to simple mode because that's what I use. they are very fun and helpful. I highly reccomend this app!

Conclusion 

All in all, Clip Studio Paint is a great choice if you're new to digital illustrator or comic book creation. It offers most of the tools and features you need to get started, and its one-time price is very affordable. If you can handle the lack of publishing tools and a somewhat cluttered interface, it's worth a try.
