Show HN: Painting app with many brushes, reference drawing and auto color picker
kreska.art
Main idea was to make drawing from reference effortless but also make an app that makes sketching very realistic especially with pencil.
After Importing a reference image the "peek" button and additional slider are unlocked, allowing for quick preview of the reference image and fast changing of the reference image opacity so that you can trace or paint over the reference.
The app is still in beta so expect bugs and crashes.
In the near future I am going to create a website to describe its features in detail and post some tutorial videos.
Apart from the "peek" button and the reference opacity slider there are more unique features for example each brush has 5 toggles, eraser allows you to erase with the given brush, pen pressure and pen opacity toggles, blending allows to blend colors with that brush and the last one is auto color picking, when reference image is available the brush will automatically peek color from the reference image while you paint - simple magic ;).
Thus far I was the only one testing the app so I am quite scared about the feedback especially worried that it will crash for you, in case it happens please let me know here or via email contact.kreska@gmail.com
I am exhausted today (working to publish the app) but will do my best to reply to any questions you may have.
Thank you and enjoy!
