Developer’s Description

Turn your digital photos into watercolor drawings and pencil sketches.

AKVIS Sketch is an award-winning program for conversion of photos into pencil sketches and watercolor drawings. Make any photo look like a B&W or color drawing, imitate the technique of graphite or color pencil, charcoal or watercolor painting. The program works in an entertaining way. It allows observing the conversion of a photo into a drawing/watercolor in real time and even interrupting the process when the required result is achieved. Some special effects included in the program can convert an ordinary photo into a piece of art. Create a blend of a drawing and a photo; imitate motion or add "time machine effect" by swirling the background. Put an accent to certain parts of the image by blurring the rest of it in an artistic way. It proves especially useful when the final drawing contains too many details on the background that divert attention. Many photo editing enthusiasts have already appreciated the Sketch's features.

Pros
- State-of-art product - trial version is available - easy to use (user friendly) - saves you lot of time (compared with photoshop steps, I have been using). - awesome results - doesn't compromise with resolution or quality

Summary
I am an artist. And i wanted a professional product to help me better understand the photographs..and get good results. I have tried almost all the products, and I was using Photoshop before I found "Akvis Sketch". Trust me, this is one of the best software among its competitors. I have tried other AKVIS products too, and loved them all.. It is highly recommended software.. Being a professional, I can guarantee that results are better than all the softwares I have used till date.

VIIAPJanuary 7, 2009
Pros
I was looking for a nice pic to sketch tool for my work but most sketch tools I've found just gave simple, childish results. AKVIS Sketch is simply perfect!! very nice results with many useful options so the output will be what you've imagined...
Cons
Looking for Pen(Blue color) sketch but there isn't... I hope they'll add it to future version.
Summary
Looking for a nice tool to make your pictures to sketch(hand drawing) then go for AKVIS Sketch!! Forget others, I checked them all ;) But you can try it yourself but I promise you'll back for AKVIS Sketch...
