It may not be in the same league as Clip Studio Paint, but it definitely stacks up well against the competition. It’s a seperate window which can load up any image you like so you don’t have to minimise the program all the time, or have it side-by-side to see it. Reference window is something I didn’t even know I needed until now.Since the program is similar to Paint Tool SAI, it makes learning to use it less painless than something with a completely unfamilair UI. Simple UI that’s quite easy to understand.I recommend checking my guide to setting up your own personal workspace if needed. It’s pretty customizable too, allowing you to re-arrange the windows however you like. Black theme is easy on the eyes, especially in the dark if you’re a night owl artist.It loads very fast compared to the likes of Photoshop which takes forever. I will be reviewing the Steam version of OpenCanvas 7.I’ll be making comparisons to Clip Studio Paint, Paint Tool SAI and Photoshop.I’m going to try to be as informative as possible, so if you want to make a purchasing decision for OpenCanvas 7, I’m your girl. …it does come with significant downsides which I will discuss further in my points below.

As a webcomic artist and illustrator, it’s perfect for me.
