Clip Studio Paint Pro continues to be a premiere application for digital artists. A simple and straightforward app that is accessible to novice and veteran artists alike, Clip Studio Paint Pro should be everyone’s go-to Art app!

I ordered this and was so happy to finally get some sturdy hardware, but was saddened when the disc couldn't fit my disc reader. It was the smallest issue though, because I just downloaded the software from the site and typed in the serial code. Now I have to watch a boat load of YouTube videos to learn how to use it 😅

So I'm using it with a tablet and it's amazing it's honestly worth it

Easy set up and lots of beginner to professional resource links!

I purchased the Clip Studio Paint Pro for my daughter who had misplaced her Studio Manga 5. She LOVES this one so much better. She says it has way more tools to choose from, plus the price was excellent compared to some others!!!

The naming is confusing sometimes, this used to be Maga Studio but now its Clip Studio Paint Pro. If you like to draw cartoons or comic style images this is perfect. It does not have image manipulation software like Photoshop, but it is not geared towards that. If you want to make a comic or graphic novel then this program is perfect!

Works well for what I need (digital art), took a while to get used to but easy enough to learn. The only thing is the mannequin takes so long to pose...

If you are familiar with manga studio or photoshop it is a pretty seemless transition. The features are well laid out and intuitive.

I have used this program for several years and am here to share my general experience with it and give you some recommendations. PROS: First off, this program is extremely intuitive and the learning curve is low to low-medium. The tools are simple to use but have a lot of power to them and are versatile for a wide range of applications of use The biggest benefit to this program over all other programs i've seen including adobe is its 3D model library and model! This program comes with several 3D assets that can be dragged into your canvas super easily, and it has an in-built store where you can find a lot more for free or paid ones made by content creators which is great. This is even better because at least with the disk version, you get a code that gives you $5.00 in credit in the store. But that's not the best part of this, what is the best part is the male and female 3D models that come with the program. These basic characters are proportionally accurate and can be adjusted to any position on your canvas. They also have sliders that can adjust their body type which I use all the time. This is an absolute life saver when you are inexperienced with figure drawing or drawing within proportion. This is what makes this program truly great for beginners. No other program as far as i know even includes this with it. This is amazing if you want to make comics. I've only made a couple of pages over the years but the quality of those comics are mostly due to this program. It is perfect for comic makers. This program is CHEAP. A ONE TIME PAYMENT! You get everything+free updates with only one payment. And this program is super cheap compared to most art programs. It very rarely crashes so it is a stable program. CONS: (mostly nitpicks) Adjusting the positions of the 3D models is a little clunky and slowish process, but definitely not something to be off-putting. Just needs optimization. Sometimes you can't get into an art file by clicking in it in a folder in order to boot up Clip Studio Paint with it. It will give an error. However, you can open it by booting up Clip Studio Paint, go into open file, then select it that way. This is something that really needs to be fixed and is my only major complaint. Making new brushes is a pain and I haven't figured it out yet, but downloading new ones is still super easy. The EX version is too expensive for what more it offers. Should you get this program? If you are a digital artist my answer is an absolute YES regardless if you are a beginner or a pro! It has tools that make making comics easy and fun, It's 3D model library is UNRIVALED and is amazing for beginners. The program is easy to use and can do a lot, and it's CHEAP. I can guarantee that you will not regret purchasing this program over other ones like corel or adobe. The price is just too competitive for what it offers, and it doesn't constantly break. GET IT.
