@ElAlexxis - just curious... why does it matter? He is offering information, for free, to the public. I'd rather be ahead of the curve than behind it, so I certainly appreciate his review OR commercial, lol.
I'm happy because Fresco is on the Microsoft Surface Pro. Very upsetting seeing all the amazing things you can do with procreate but not having an iPad. I wasn't feeling to comfortable with Fresco but after this video I might give it another go. Thanks 😊
Honestly Fresco is lacking too many features right now to really recommend it. There are definitely some weird quirks with the water color where the simulation stops really quickly and makes weird sharp lines. The oil paint might appear impressive... But that only means you haven't experienced the free Verve Painter on PC. Verve painter's incredibly fast and realistic dynamics blow Fresco out of the water. It's night and day better. Too many brush settings are currently not available (that are in Photoshop) such as dual brush, texture, color dynamics, etc... There's also a ton of minor frustrating things like imported brushes lose their sub folders if they had any, and they auto arrange to alphabetical order. This makes large brush sets impossible to make sense of. Worse yet is the fact that all brushes take on the blend mode, color and size set by the app. This means that if you're using a large painting brush at say 250pixels and then you switch to a pencil brush it will stay at that 250pixels and not look or feel like a pencil at all. If the brush had a built in color (say blue for a sketch brush) that is lost to the default color selected too. Then of course there's the issue that if the brush was made in a certain blend mode, like multiply (which is super important for water color and marker brushes) then the brushes will take on whatever blend mode the app is currently set too which is often normal. This is all shocking too, because you'd expect it from a 3rd party dev who added ABR and TPL support to their drawing app, not Adobe the company who made Photoshop and these formats. Why not build it the right way from the start, is it really that hard? Another annoying thing is that you can't delete, edit and save, rename, or move downloaded brushes and brush sets. My imported brushes are currently a mess that I can't fix. To add insult to injury I have a bunch of brush sets that didn't fully import so I have the same set over and over with a different number of brushes in each and they're currently stuck that way. These shortcomings are acceptable of an app made by a smaller company or a startup but not Adobe, arguably the most wealthy company in the digital art space. Its also totally ridiculous that you can't currently make/import custom live brushes and vector brushes. For an app that is focused on brushes its honestly shocking how much it's lacking. I can't believe there's no brush creator space (in fact there's no way to make a brush at all) like the feature that's coming to Procreate 5. The brush creator space should also allow you to design seamless textures for the brushes too... I doubt we'd ever be so lucky to get something as obvious as that.
Dan Riley well WOW that’s a very well-thought-out paragraph. Thanks for contributing to the comment section! Hopefully my commenting here will help more people see this.
Hello Will, just watched this video and while viewing you giving your kudos to Fresco, I was using it along with you. I ignored this app before due to I didn’t quite understand it. I already knew and used ArtRage, Auryn Ink and now, I’m sold completely on Fresco! I’m amazed at the watercolor features as well the Oil ... oh man! I’ve been reenergized. I found your video by searching Fresco videos and now I’ve subscribed to your page. Thank you
So, basically, it’s Painter, but 20 years too late and lacking many features that are already in Procreate and Affinity apps for the ridiculous price of $10 per month. Right... I’ll pass.
I don’t understand some of these coments here, complaining that you have to pay for it. It is a very powerful tool and you expect it to be for free??? Someone develops it, spends time and work on it and you want it for free? People don’t mind to pay for monthly Netflix but are surprised they have to pay for adobe...smh. Plus, those who are subscribed to adobe already, have fresco for “free”, depending on the bundle they have.
If I didn‘t see your iPhone move from time to time I would‘ve sworn that your table was a mockup... Really nice presentation! Back to topic: How is the performance of fresco? On my regular iPad it sadly lags quite a bit when I use the waterbrushes...
It's okay on the iPad Pro - but it does have some performance issues as of right now on other iPads, it's a powerful app that needs a lot of processing. I reckon they'll fix it soon with some updates though!
It's coming very soon! I'm making a video about the brief. It's taken longer than I anticipated to get the brief out to you guys. It'll be worth the wait though. :)
@@katscandance thanks for responding I hate when electronic devices got considerably warm I'll hold off getting the ipad pro for now, i just don't think it's healthy for your hand to be absorbing all that heat
It will only compete with Procreate for people that already have an Adobe CC subscription. No freelance artist in their right mind will pay $10 per month for this when they have already paid $10 period for Procreate, which currently does WAY more than Fresco.
You're quite right there. I am currently using the Adobe apps and I was looking towards buying an iPad pro only to use procreate. But now this has provided me with an alternative.
Procreate is all over better and user friendlier than this app and also less expensive than Fresco. So no more trying this wannabee apps. Procreate is for me as Tattoo artist close to perfect
What is dishonest about the video? I was sponsored by Skillshare to do a video about Fresco because they have Classes on their platform. Nothing dishonest about the video.
I hope you guys enjoy the video! What do you think of Adobe Fresco?
ElAlexxis It’s a commercial
Looking forward to trying out Fresco!

It's good, just don’t like the subscription format of adobe.

@@helicopter_traffic Thanks! glad I could contribute! :D
sorry, i dont like subscription models from adobe! too expensive!
Oh FFS... i just downloaded it and thought its Free !!!
Silly me... Adobe never do such a thing ...
ill wait for my Procreate v5...kick ass

Mate, this is brilliant. Just downloaded Adobe Fresco today and can’t wait to get stuck in.
Great to hear!
Nice, all I need now is a grand for the iPad. Gonna be a lot of student finance saving lol
Try framing your iPad in landscape orientation; I would rather see more of your screen then the pretty wood table and succulent 🙏✨
Maybe that’s the way he likes using his iPad
Noted! :D
Hey will, that Batik looks sharp on you! Love from Indonesia
If you can buy it, rather than paying for a subscription then I’d be interested in getting this.
same
Square Breaker ye what was I thinking 🤣
The work (work hard) in the video was entirely made on Fresco or you did it on a real sheet of paper and you scanned it then converted it to vectors?
So, basically, it’s Painter, but 20 years too late and lacking many features that are already in Procreate and Affinity apps for the ridiculous price of $10 per month. Right... I’ll pass.
Wait, we need creative cloud to use it or pay 120$ a year?! Greedy Adobe...

Wdym I didn’t have to subscribe to it to use it
@@genmophoria Even! 👍
Not everyone can aport the money girl so shut up and keep ur comments!
@@sebastiansuarez9688 its been free for 6 months
What ipad do you use? I don't want to get the wrong one. Thank you.
Are you using an ipad pro 12.9? I don't think I can afford that one, do you think you can still draw efficiently on the Air's 10.9 inch?
The surprising fact is you upload 4K videos, very spicy
Gotta love the 4K!
Love the use of the word spicy! 🌶
This video was awesome I’m getting really into graphic design keep the videos coming Will! 👍🏻
Thanks for posting a review, Will. Hope to see you again at OFFF sometime!
Awesome! Havent had a chance to get my hands on Fresco just yet, but after this video I realized I really need to!
I love Adobe Fresco, but for realistic watercolor effects I have not found anything that can beat Tayasui Sketches. I don’t know how they do it!
I wish it supported animation features like time frames, onion skin etc.
looks beautiful, but ... is way too expensive‼️ Procreate can also do a lot.
Itz free
Thank you! So excited to start in hand lettering
Could you do and updated installment please - especially for hand lettering and logos? Fresco has changed changed/improved since you made this video!
What iPad Pro are you using? Great video. Very helpful. Thanks
This looks great. I have been trying to use Procreate. What would be the difference between Procreate and Fresco?
colors4u procreate is to draw almost anything, fresco made for painting art, imho
Hi! Do you have a video for using the Pixel brushes? I am unable to use the Apple Pencil with the pixel brushes. Are you?
Katie I’m having that same issue too sadly :/
So you prefer over Procreate? I’d love to see a collection of your best work created via the iPad!
The only thing I like about the app is that it is vector. I make stickers in procreate and I hate that it is pixel based.
What about importing them into Illustrator for Ipad (now released) and tracing them into vectors ? I am thinking about this workflow.
If I didn‘t see your iPhone move from time to time I would‘ve sworn that your table was a mockup... Really nice presentation!
Back to topic: How is the performance of fresco? On my regular iPad it sadly lags quite a bit when I use the waterbrushes...
It's okay on the iPad Pro - but it does have some performance issues as of right now on other iPads, it's a powerful app that needs a lot of processing. I reckon they'll fix it soon with some updates though!
This looks sooooo amazing
Thanks!
Are there any other apps with live brush feature? The interface is also quite nicely done
JL Kruhek Does Stuff procreate
@@bujin_ts1706 i Love procreate, but Adobe Fresco live brushes are amazing
JL Kruhek Does Stuff yes
Try It! didn’t like it, to many features missing, need a loooot of improvement.
Hi Will! Does the Paperlike screen film wears out the nib of the Apple Pencil?
Bettina Cecilia Silveira I have a strong feeling it does.
I have a matte screen protector, my tip is already blunt in two weeks
@@ashleyatitsogbui2243 That's crucial!
Do you use a screen protector?
Absolutely love your videos in the past and you put them but I don’t like is the paint subscription for Adobe fresco.
9.99$/month. 9.99$/month. 9.99$/month 10 dollars for a month. SAVE THAT MONEY AND BUY NEW iPAD.
But there were no charges on the install.
This app looks awesome
True
Now they need a warp tool like in Procreate then I'd be a happy camper
Great tutorial! What screen sizd is the iPad you’re using? How about adding the info to the description? (I’ve seen ppl asking in the comments) thx!
Such a good vid x
Has anyone gotten the brief yet? I thought it came out Monday.
It's coming very soon! I'm making a video about the brief. It's taken longer than I anticipated to get the brief out to you guys. It'll be worth the wait though. :)
Will Paterson thanks Will! Fantastic content as always 😄
Hey will I got a question for you, does the ipad pro gets warm constantly when drawing in room temperature?
TenoDaley yes sometimes mine does
@@katscandance thanks for responding I hate when electronic devices got considerably warm I'll hold off getting the ipad pro for now, i just don't think it's healthy for your hand to be absorbing all that heat
@@TenoDaley ... xd?
TenoDaley it does not get considerably warm. Barely noticeable most times.
@@wandrinsheep ok but I'm just wondering what happens when it's constantly in room temperature.
Can you export to illustrator like in the other app
if u watched the video he did state u can work in vectors and export in .ai file formats.
@@simplyruben3184 he only said it never showed it. And I cant find it on the app Can you show me
No one only payment, no party.
I wished you showed us how you draw straight lines in this app...I must be blind but there's no ruler tool.
Kevin Jéan you got to settings then Turn on experimental and you’ll see the option to turn on straight line
Waiting for Android version for my Tab S4
Thank you!
Amazing! It may compete well with procreate.
It may do!

Great video :) I should draw more:)
Procreate is way better with no overpriced monthly subscription.
Procreate's brush engine sucks big time. Also, there is nothing like Fresco's oil and watercolor in Procreate.
Nah Procreate is king!
his phone moves 4:48
Awesome
Procreate is all over better and user friendlier than this app and also less expensive than Fresco. So no more trying this wannabee apps. Procreate is for me as Tattoo artist close to perfect
No, it''s not. I hate Procreate's brush engine. It just doesn't feel right and natural. Fresco is miles better in this regard.
Vadym Ivanchenko You can have your own opinion, but don’t tell me that I am wrong
Nice batik
Question - how many times did you say "I'm a Hand-lettering Artist" 🤣
Congrats for Iphone
It's on Microsoft Surface Pro as well. 😊
No thanks. I stay away from subscription-based apps. There are better art apps on the iPad pro anyways.
Its free
9.99$/month for that. Give me a break.
Well not just for that.
marcus anthony Actually, yeah, it IS just for that.
Goodbye procreate hahahahaha
First
IT sucks.. another pay for everthing... bye bye Adobe
Plz reply
hi :)
The dishonesty here is heartbreaking. Are you affiliated with adobe?
What is dishonest about the video? I was sponsored by Skillshare to do a video about Fresco because they have Classes on their platform. Nothing dishonest about the video.
Cool app. Subscription noooooooooooope😶
Nah Procreate is king!
