Procreate App Gets Updated With Full HD Canvas Recording, Free Artery Brushes, More

Procreate, a popular painting app, has been updated with full HD canvas recording, free Artery brushes, and more.

With its gorgeous interface and incredible Silica painting engine, it’s easy to see why Procreate is one of the hottest iPad apps available today. Packed with 120 beautiful brushes, from true-to-life sets of pencils, inks and paint brushes, to unique digital tools, Procreate is a full digital studio at your finger tips.

Procreate paints fast. Really fast. The secret sauce to Procreate’s insane performance comes from the proprietary Silica engine. Silica renders strokes in 64 bit precision with a speed and accuracy that makes other software blush. You'll see your stroke blend, decay, and even smudge in realtime. After using Procreate for a short while, you’ll see just how natural and fluid painting on iPad can be.
