sketching app - something as elegant as Paper 53

**MikeLip** · 07-18-2012, 08:01 AM

I have a couple really nice sketch apps on my iPad. I love Paper 53. Is there something straightforward, using a sketchbook like feel, or anything that is just really as well done and intuitive?

Best I've used is Sketchbook Pro. Give it a shot.

I do have that one. Any yeah, it's really good. But - and I know it's silly, because it's not as capable - Paper 53 just seems more usable. I am not trying to do art, and in fact one thing I really want is a real technical drafting program. There isn't a good one out there for ANY tab. AND Cad is the closest there is and compared to even Cad Standard (A $30 program on the PC) it sucks.

Something not overly complex, that defaults to a simple line - not a 1/2" thick round end brush stroke - that lets me draw STRAIGHT lines (constrained lines) and simple arcs, and other geometric forms in a controlled way, and also a freestyle mode.
