Owner Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The Beginner Artist's Best Friend" July 1, 2025 3.0 I was able to produce images of a similar if not slightly lower quality than my current works on Clip Studio Paint, with a decent amount of tool overlap between both apps. Pros It has a decent number of the tools a digital artist might need when starting out, and the UI is rather pleasant. It is a wonderful free option, and has earned it's place as one of the top places to start in digital art, alongside its companion app, FireAlpaca. Cons After a while of using the app, it is clear that MediBang Paint has limitations that something like Photoshop or Clip Studio Paint don't suffer from. It's a great starting spot, but if you're looking for an all-in-one suite, this will be lacking.

Pros I like how easy it was to get started with Medibang. It was free to use their lite version which was a big win for me because I wasn't sure if I wanted to move into digital art or not. I also like that I was able to use it on my phone with my stylus Cons I dont think I could pinpoint any cons. I really enjoy using the app. Review Source CM Camille M.

Pros Medibang paint is a simple but yet very complete software. Above all, it is free and available on any device. You can import brushes, modify them and even create them. A big advantage is that cloud storage is totally free, you just need to create an account. Cons When you zoom too much on a drawing, there is a glitch with the brush. Review Source Fortunato B.

It has a lot of useful fuctions and it never stops amazing me. Cons It's a bit hard to use a few fuctions properly or to even find them. The Help tool could use a few improvements.

Il menù è classico ed è semplicissimo da utilizzare, penso sia uno dei softwares migliori in questo ambito. Cons MediBang non mi ha ancora dato nessun problema, nemmeno con la compatibilità. A mio avviso è davvero uno strumento valido. Review Source Giuseppina E. Moderatrice Chat Management Consulting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Bisogna prenderci la mano ma..." November 5, 2023 5.0 Pros Con MediBang bisogna prenderci un po' la mano prima di inquadrare perfettamente il software: nonostante abbia le solite molteplici funzioni base, ne possiede anche di nuove e nascoste, che necessitano di essere utilizzate solo con la giusta conoscenza del prodotto. E' ottimo, ma serve tempo per usarlo bene. Cons Come già sopra citato, ritengo che MediBang richieda un periodo di training prima di essere utilizzato alla perfezione. Review Source Cristina A. Fotografa Photography Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Mi piace" June 18, 2023 5.0 Pros Molto spesso capita ci siano richieste lavorative un po' fuori dal comune, e grazie a questo software veramente semplice da usare, riesco a disegnare caricature particolari. Veramente top. Cons Rispetto ad altri programmi le shortcut sono diverse, ma basta un po' di abitudine! Review Source GD Gioele D. Illustratore Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Recensione Madibang Paint PRO" January 26, 2023 4.0 Pros Il software è ottimo per il disegno digitale in generale, offre una grande varietà di funzioni, filtri, pennelli e retini non solo per l'illustrazione, ma anche per la creazione di tavole di fumetto/manga. Inoltre, questo software è facilissimo da utilizzare ed è possibile abilitare il time-lapse. Cons Salvare i time-lapse con una buona risoluzione spesso è difficile e fa perdere tempo. Inoltre sarebbe da migliorare lo strumento blur, o sfumino, che invece di sfumare fa una sfocatura fissa. Review Source LC Lidiane C.

Comparando com outros este é perfeito Cons Seu preço já que possuo uma renda baixa, mas vale a pena Switched from [Clip Studio Paint](https://www.capterra.com/p/210117/Clip-Studio-Paint/) Porque possuía as ferramentas que precisava por um preço mais baixo Review Source Martina L. Fotografa Photography Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Ottimo" November 15, 2023 4.0 Pros MediBang mi ha fatto sin da subito un'ottima impressione, rivelandosi un software versatile adatto ad ogni tipo di esigenza. L'unica pecca è che forse, per me che provengo da altri software, alcune opzioni fossero un attimo troppo confusionarie. Cons E' ottimo, ma credo prenda tempo per abituarsi se si proviene da altri software, in quanto alcune opzioni sono in categorie diverse rispetto a quelle offerte dai tipici e vecchi software con più notorietà presenti tutt'ora sul mercato.

You can zoom it in or out, rotate it, etc without the need to loose visualization of your drawing If youre interested in making a graphic novel, medibang has lots of built-in tools to make your workflow a lot easier, like panel divide to automatically create the division of your panel Cons Customizing your own brushes can be a little tricky and limited Review Source Similar Products Featured
