Just two months after ArtStudio for iPad 4.0 was launched in the the App Store, ArtStudio for iPad 5.0 has already arrived.
One of the most popular creativity-boosting apps for iOS, ArtStudio for iPad ships with a variety of tools that make digital drawing and image editing a breeze. And with the recently released version 5.0 of the app, more such tools are introduced.
There’s the new Heal tool, which is ideal for removing blemishes from faces and unwanted objects from photos.
There’s also the new Distort tool, which lets you skew and freely transform your images, so as to add perspective to them or otherwise.
And then there’s the new Elastify feature, which you can use to stretch any image to your heart’s content.
ArtStudio for iPad 5.0 also adds 11 new blending modes: Dissolve, Darken, Burn, Subtract, Lighten, Dodge, Soft light, Hard light, Grain extract, Grain merge, and Divide.
New filters — all 23 of them, divided into groups — are also introduced in the latest version of ArtStudio for iPad: Edge Detect, Twirl, Pinch, Waves, Circle waves, Polar coordinates, Difference Clouds, Checkerboard, Stripes, Pattern, Emboss, Bumpmap, Diffuse, Wind, Drop Shadow, Heat Map, X-Ray, Lomo, Antique, Hot Autumn, Cheap Camera, Dull, and Cross Process.
