Reviews for Sketch Drawer Pro
Unlike in the past, you no longer need to attend months’ worth of art class time to hack into artistic side. With just a few clicks, you can turn your pictures into drawings. All this is possible thanks to Sketch Drawer Pro. This application promises to make it easy to give your photos a touch of a pencil drawing. I have use it in the past short while and here is what I noted.
At a glance
Right from the installation phase, this application gives you a good vibe of fun times ahead. The downloading, installation and registration all take a few minutes to complete. The wide and white space that this program presents on its main window clearly speaks simplicity. Regardless of your skill level in using computer software, you will find it easy to get started. The other options are also easy to understand use.
Pros
Collection of presets
As you start using Sketch Drawer Pro, you will find its collection of presets very helpful. Just click on the down-facing arrow under Presets to view the options. While checking out the different presets, a pop up on the left will appear showing you how the final image will transform. These subtle details surrounding the presets are impressive.
Flexible modifications
Closely related to the Presets feature are the additional sliders below it. Regardless of the preset you decide to pick; these sliders provide flexibility in terms of changing the final look of the sketch you want to apply. You can change details like the Edge Strength, Strokes, Stroke thickness, and Smudging.
Batch processing
In addition to how Sketch Drawer Pro makes it easy to convert photos into sketches, you can apply a sketch format to multiple photos at the same time. This option is particularly useful if you have tons of photos that you want to convert. After clicking on the Batch Mode gear at the top bar section of main window, you can start working on your photo folders.
Con
Long conversion periods
At first, I thought I had overloaded my computer with other tasks since I noted Sketch Drawer Pro was taking quite a long time to apply a sketch on a small-sized photo. However, after a couple of other conversions, I concluded that it was the program’s conversion algorithm that was laggy.
Conclusion
After installing Sketch Drawer Pro, you will need no further learning to start using it. The program is easy to use and you only need few clicks to get the job done. It has a load of features and options to ensure your final sketch looks exactly the you wanted. Despite all that positive vibe, you will have to bear with the slow conversion step. You can still download and try it out because of its simplicity.
Sketch Drawer pro is an amazing way to cheat your way into art. The idea behind Sketch Drawer is converting your loved images into sketches. It uses color contrasts and edges to create drawing and shading points hence giving you a rather impressive black and white pencil sketch.
Simple but well thought out
Even though it is no match to professional sketch tools, this simple and free app will actually give you a presentable sketch, something you can identify with. The settings are simple and easy to understand. You just load an image and set your configuration options.
A tiny window over your photo shows you what the sketch would be like once it is done. The Sketch Drawer Pro is a cool way to giving your favorite selfies some oomph and turning them into true legends.
Pros
Quite impressive pictures if you toy with the settings well
The default sketch settings aren’t that impressive. You will have to toy around with the settings before achieving the perfect match for each photo. Once you find the balance, you will definitely like what you get.
Batch processing mode
If you have multiple images, you can load them in a batch and let the Sketcher do its magic. You might not have absolute control over the result but it is good at saving on time.
A color sketch mode
Throw in some color and make things look livelier. The color sketch mode creates a more interesting image with better features. Personally, I’d rather you always use this setting and later edit the resulting sketch to grayscale.
Cons
Doesn’t work so well with dark images
Don’t expect Sketch Drawer pro to do a great job if your photo has a low contrast. A dark skin tone, dark clothes and a dark room will result in a pathetic sketch. I guess there is a limit beyond which we shouldn’t expect some AI to perform. This is the limit for Sketch Drawer Pro.
The sketch algorithm is a bit heavy
My image took quite the time to render. Around 70 seconds. This is quite long for a machine that renders comparatively complex 3D models in a minute or so. I have a feeling that it will take quite the time on a lesser machine. It has a potential of being a great resource hog.
Verdict
Sketch Drawer Pro is a good way to giving a different touch to all your favorite photos. Just remember to take clear and well-illuminated photos with its weakness in mind. The better the contrast between items on the picture the better the sketch would be.
