REVIEWS
"This is a perfect app to make mistakes, refine strokes with a steady hand and not fear failure." — United States
"Good app that teaches you how to draw sketches by shadowing the strokes of an artist. Very simple but effective." — United Kingdom
"Great app. Lets you copy the pen strokes of another artist to recreate their drawing. I found it oddly relaxing to just trust what was happening and watch it emerge." — App Store Review
"ShadowDraw for the iPad and Apple Pencil is one program that teaches drawing forms by having you follow along the animated pen strokes of another artist in an updated take on the "copying the masters" approach." — The New York Times

Ratings and Reviews
Has potential
The app is a good start, and can be fun, especially with more artists added. I have two suggestions to make it more useful. First, when starting a new drawing, it is imperative to have a faint outline of the actual finished drawing in the background. I just spent like 10 minutes drawing the squirrel, except for most of it, I was just scribbling circles and lines without knowing how they related to the final product. To learn to sketch, I need to know how to look at an image and break it down into those lines and circles. Just blindly scribbling doesn't help a lot. Also, with the more complex drawings, at times, the artist's next line is a dot somewhere on the page of scribbles and I can't find where to make the next line, so I have to just randomly draw until I find out where the dot was, as the drawing won't continue until you match the artists lines.
Thank you for your suggestions and review. We have been thinking about the ideal way to show not just a finished drawing, but a preview of the next steps. Right now we have a cool preview mode that will reveal each new step moving forward. If you press and hold on the circle on the top right you will see what the artist created come to life. Please tell me what you think of that feature by emailing me at support@shadowdrawapp.com
Also we have added a new Skip a step feature in the 1.3 update. Whenever you see a little dot or you can't find the next step and you want to go your own way, simply tap the screen with 3 fingers at the same time and you will skip forward one step. Please try this in the update and tell me what you think.
Fabulous!
Coming from someone who started using this app years ago... I just started to use it again and so many things have changed. It is an incredible app you must try if you are learning to draw! The guidelines are slow enough to follow along and be able to loosely recreate what it is showing you to draw as the drawing progresses. I find it much easier to follow and feel it gives me time not only to follow but also understand what is being done and why. The lesson on eyes is amazing and I have tried it several times getting better as I go. I love that there is a reference of how the drawing will look when it is done as it gives me a chance to make the lines more like they should look in the end instead of blindly following along and not knowing if I am connecting correctly, how it will look compared to the finished one, etc. If there are lessons that do not use a reference on the side, I may snap a picture with my phone to use at the same time. So many possibilities! A lot of apps don't seem they would translate well to doing the same drawing on paper, but with some repetition I have no doubt I could recreate it later. I am so happy I came back and tried it again and I am amazed how wonderful it has become! I plan to make drawings I learn in this app and transfer them to Procreate as I am learning that as well. Try this drawing app and you will love it :). No other drawing app compares to this!
THE BEST APP TO LEARN HOW TO DRAW PERIOD!!!
Stop looking for other drawing apps because you just found the best drawing app there is PERIOD. This is by FAR the definitive, must have, absolute winner of the drawing apps. Not only is there so, SO much content to learn how to draw, the way in which the tutorials work are intuitive. If I can draw using this app, trust me you can too! Step by step tracing instructions, abilities to alter the canvas and zoom in and out to better see the strokes and the endless amount of subjects to draw! You want to learn how to draw faces better? They got it, Male and female faces. You wanna draw horses better? They got it! You wanna learn how to draw mountains, trees, bushes, landscapes, portraits, THEY GOT IT! If they don't have it, message their team. I have never had customer support like this. These people actually do care, I know that makes you uncomfortable thinking that they actually do care. But they do so get over it! I love this app. It will never get old. Even when I become a professional artist! I'll know where to hone my skills. Man I am thirsty. Gotta go! Download this app now! You won't regret it!
