He is preparing for a work trip to San Francisco, but he managed to squeeze out a post before he jets off! This time, he covers an <strong>app<\/strong> that you might not have heard of. But believe us, its worth checking out! Read what Noel has to say below. And as always, <strong>comment<\/strong>, <strong>tweet<\/strong> or get in touch whatever way suits. We love hearing your <strong>feedback<\/strong>&#8230;.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Noel here again, <\/p>\n<p>One of the cooler <strong>drawing apps<\/strong> I have used is called <a href=\"http:\/\/zen-brush.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Zen Brush<\/a>. It&#8217;s not one of the more popular apps but it is pretty unique. It has very little in the way of tools and so it is pretty easy to get to grips with. So for all you techno-phobes, this should be perfect!<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>When I first seen the app I was a little underwhelmed but then when I realised that it is supposed to be representative of using an <strong>ink brush<\/strong> it was clearer why it was so simple. <\/p>\n<p>Check out the <em>video<\/em> I made using <a href=\"http:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/product.php\/2\/Maglus_Stylus_with_Removable_Tip_System\" target=\"_blank\">Maglus<\/a> with Zen Brush below. <\/p>\n<p><iframe width=\"625\" height=\"352\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tztMlTJU14Q?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The cool thing about <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/zen-brush.com\" target=\"_blank\">Zen Brush<\/a><\/strong> is that somehow by magic it is capable of <strong>pressure sensitive<\/strong> feedback without the aid of digital connection to a stylus. It changes the thickness of lines only by pressure which means a regular <strong>analog stylus<\/strong> works perfectly on the app. Using it with <a href=\"http:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/product.php\/3\/Maglus_Tips_2_Pack\" target=\"_blank\">various tips<\/a> on <strong>Maglus<\/strong> gives some interesting results. I used both <em>Maglus and my fingers<\/em> in the video to get different types of input on the app which was pretty cool.  <\/p>\n<p>I think the <strong>final image<\/strong> I created has a nice, loose feel to it. Some people don&#8217;t believe that sketches<br \/>\ncreated with a Stylus have the same appeal as <strong>pencil drawings<\/strong>. This sketch has lots of <strong>movement<\/strong><br \/>\nsimilar to the effect you would achieve from using <em>a pencil on paper<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/IMG_1072.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/IMG_1072-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_1072\" width=\"625\" height=\"469\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-1474\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/IMG_1072-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/IMG_1072-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/IMG_1072-624x468.jpg 624w, https:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/IMG_1072.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Zen Brush is available <a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/ie\/app\/zen-brush\/id382200873?mt=8\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a> on the app store.<\/p>\n<p>Until next time,<\/p>\n<p>Noel<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey guys, Noel has put together another great blog post for us.
