Honestly the best drawing software I've ever tried. If you're willing to pay the annual subscription (which honestly isn't expensive compared to other ones) you get a lot of features very often that are perfectly designed to help illustration/comic work. There are a few downsides, like performance or a few nit picks, but overall this is almost perfect!

Extremely powerful tool, and relatively simple! First off, there's a free trial where you get 30 hours/month without paying. Fantastic for me because I don't draw more than a few minutes a day (yet). Secondly, I just found out that the galaxy's S-Pen has built-in pressure sensitivity, and CSP uses it intuitively! For the price of free, you have to try it out.

love this for art, havent purchased a subscription but i feel like the 30 hours a month is reasonable. great brush variation, texture selection, etc. HOWEVER, i spent 15 minutes looking for a way to import images off my phone or some form of reference window, with no luck. not a horrible drawback, but i have a hard time imagining images, so references are usually a necessity for me. granted, i might have missed it, but regardless it is almost unusable for me. great app if youre okay with that.
