How to operate:
1 - Drawing lessons.
To complete these lessons, you only need the 3 sizes of the pencil, and one dark color.
Step-by-step pictures are displayed in the small part of the screen. They can be conveniently moved with one finger and resized with two fingers. So that you can choose to see a small detail or the whole picture.
A drawing grid is also provided to guide your eyes in the sketching step. This grid will be auto-removed when you finish the sketching step and start hatching and shading.
2 - Color wheel: you can now choose and create an unlimited number of colors with this really useful new feature.
- The first window is the preview of your color.
- In the second larger window you can adjust the Hue parameter (color changes if you move the target horizontally) and the Saturation (color purity will change when you move the target vertically).
- In the third window: brightness will change with the cursor moving.
3 - Color picker: represented by an eye dropper in the color wheel window. Also extremely useful if you want to pick a same color for using in different parts of your painting. Just choose the eye dropper, then move your finger through you painting, and lift it when you find the correct color.
The eye dropper will only take colors on your painting foreground page, not from the background picture.
4 - VIDEO CONVERSION: until now your paintings can be replayed stroke by stroke only inside the application, there is no way to export them.
Since version 1.9 we have added the conversion function of your paintings into the MP4 video format, so that you can share them with your family and friends, or directly publish them on Youtube or Flickr.

What's New in Version 2.5
• Version 2.5
• NEW drawing pens: introducing speed sensitive tools.
- The new speed sensitive ink pen (represented by a pen nib) with a really smooth and responsive stroke. The most suitable for writing words. The thickness of the stroke is larger in low speed. Provided in 3 sizes.
- The Chinese calligraphy thin brush. This tool is also speed sensitive, the stroke is larger in slow speed. In 3 sizes, excellent for writing and sketching.
- A square chalk for a cool color grading. This chalk has a very progressive painting step, it makes the grading action much more easy.
• The set of brushes.
- A dark blending brush: it produces a specific effect, like a mix of wet oil and knife painting. To make the best effect with this new brush, don't lift your finger from the screen during a quite long moment, then stop painting when you reach the desired effect.
- Translucent brush head: draw translucent line with large curves.
- Heavy improvement of the sumdge tool, greater feather effect. The longer you smudge, the better effect you get.
- New button for the smudge tool, represented by a bottle and water drops.
• 4 magic pens have been added to the already large range of choices:
- The star painter: add multicolored stars into your masterpieces.
- A local symmetrical pen: not like the whole screen symmetry drawing, this feature let you draw symmetrical strokes around the starting point of your finger. And when you lift your finger to draw another stroke, its color will change automatically.
- A mixed bright colored speed sensitive brush: this pen brings 2 new effects, first the colors change automatically without lifting your finger from the screen, second the stroke thickness is bigger with high speed.
- New mixed dark colored speed sensitive brush. Works exactly like the bright colored one, but with a dark color palette.
• Paint roller: using the new roller is like painting with an airbrush and drawing with a thin pencil in the same time. This tool produces smooth and hard strokes in the same single action.
• The gallery interface has been change with more harmonious colors.
• The replay window has a new background.
• When you export a movie, the Drawing Box icon is not displayed in the beginning of your video.

Customer Reviews
Great for intuitive drawing!
Many drawing programs use drafting guides, which is good for final product work, but the free wheeling use of so many different brushes and blenders and hues makes for quick, emotion packed figures.
Best Drawing and Coloring App
We have both Drawing Box and Drawing Pad. Drawing Box is a better app by far. There are a lot of colors, utensils, stamps and extras. The coloring pages are included which is a big bonus. Thanks for the great app.
Great app👾👾👾👾👾👾
One of the best drawing apps in the app store. It has so many colors for you to chose from and the new added tools are awesome. 👏👏I love the new blending tool it makes the colors blend so well. But when I use the magic pencils then I tap the undo button, everything kind of disappears for some reason......other than that it's a great app!🎨🎨🎨🎨🎨
