Where Is Sketchpad
AKVIS Sketch has a neat interface to process your images instantly. At first, you can turn the photo into a drawing with the default settings and then touch up the image by adding color or trying different techniques - from pencil to charcoal or watercolor. You can adjust all the settings: make the hatching denser or finer, change the pitch angle of strokes, choose the pencil color, etc.
The extremely helpful Timeline feature allows you to get semi-processed sketches and variations of your drawing. Watch the process and choose between the snapshots. Pin the result and continue to play. Then you can compare versions of the drawing and choose the best one… or two.
The program offers a list of ready-to-use presets which make it easier to work with the software and save you time. You can create your own presets with your favorite combinations of the photo to drawing parameters.
Additional Features
Using the software you can also add some unique background effects to your picture! Create a combination of a sketch and a photo, mixing drawings with real life; imitate motion or add a 'time machine effect' by swirling the background. Put an accent to certain parts of the image by blurring the rest of it in an artistic way.
Where Is Sketch From
Personalize your pencil sketch by inserting a signature, a greeting, a logo or a watermark; add a rough texture surface to your image. Apply a frame to your drawing to create a real work of art.
The Batch Processing support lets you automatically convert a series of images. You can make comics or cartoons from your home videos in this way. For video processing, we also offer a special filter for After Effects and Premiere Pro - AKVIS Sketch Video.
