FREE ART PROGRAMS

So recently I came across a fellow artist who was struggling to find a free art program, and considering dropping the large amount of money for a Photoshop license. I know not everyone can afford such an expensive program, so I’ve compiled a list of programs with no cost to download and use.

Keep in mind all computers are different, so not all will work for everyone. Also, I’ve only ever used Windows, so for the most part, I’m not sure if everything will work for Mac. if in doubt check the website linked.

Photoshop CS2 – (Windows, not sure about Mac.)

FireAlpaca – (Windows and Mac)

Sketchbook Copic Edition – (Windows and Mac)

GIMP – (Windows) (Mac)

Paint tool SAI [cracked]  – (Windows) (Mac)

Paint tool SAI 2 beta – (tumblr post on said program)

iPaint – (Mac)

Paintbrush – (Mac)

Pencil – (Windows, Mac)

Paint.NET – (Windows)

Seashore [still in development, ver 0.5] – (Mac)

ChocoFlop – (Mac)

Inkscape – (Mac and Windows)

ArtRage [Demo] – (Mac and Windows)

OpenCanvas 1.1[must pay for 2.0] – (Windows, not sure about Mac.)

MyPaint – (Windows)

Krita – (Windows)

Vectorian [Supports Animation] – (Windows)

Pixia[Japanese, some English versions] – (Windows)

Asperite – (Windows)

Chasys Draw IES – (Windows)

SmoothDraw – (Windows)

TwistedBrush Open Studio – (Windows)

BOUNS – CTRL+Paint [Great for teaching all kinds of stuff, like how to use digital programs.]

If you know more free programs, please add onto this!

  • Origin: Latin (look at this frickin dweeb switching into latin)

“So, my friend, I am a traveler!”

  • Origin: Latin

“You speak the language of the Romans!”

“Yes, sir!”

And for the record,

Atlantean was written/created by 

Marc Okrand the dude who made Klingon. 

So Kida and Milo are ACTUALLY talking to each other. Not just saying gibberish.

Milo: I know these other languages but I’m not fluent in yours yet please have mercy.

Kida: You seem to be an idiot but I’ll forgive you because you’re trying.

People know that Tabata was limited under CEOs thumbs right? The people who only know money, and how to keep more of it for themselves? Not the actual creators or the creatives? He had to work with absurd limitations and he pulled off a goddamn miracle.

They’ve outright said FFXV saved Final Fantasy. The franchise. The whole goddamn thing.

They get to do more with World of Final Fantasy because Tabata saved the franchise.

They get to keep moving forward with the FF7 Remake (which our boy disappointment himself Nomura the Flake said just recently was announced way too early, in a nervous way) because TABATA saved Final Fantasy.

They get to crossover with tons of other IPs from other studios, making money off of Noctis, because of Tabata.

And what of Tabata, as a person, and his visions for the game?

He always asked fans questions. He wanted to hear them directly, to understand, so he could improve.

He always said he wished they didn’t have to cut so much, but he was forced to release on a schedule. And that was because of The Flake’s flakery.

He also always said HE wanted to write more with Luna. He wanted to give her more content.

The fact that he has left Square and Luminous entirely is suspect as fuck. And I don’t trust the CEOs. They’ve been fucking over this show since letting Nomura announce it as Versus 13.

Tabata is a fucking hero who deserves better.
