Back in December of 2010, I mentioned that Autodesk had launched the SketchBook drawing app for Android smartphones. The catch is that the smartphone screen is generally too small for any intense drawing sessions. SketchPad Pro has been on the iPad for a while now allowing artists to draw using the larger iPad screen.
Autodesk has now finally rolled out a tablet version of SketchBook Pro to Android tablet users too. The app is a brush set that allows you to draw on a digital canvas and use your fingers as well as a stylus to create all sorts of drawings. The app has more than 60 brush tools and the user can create up to six different layers as one file and can export the files to Photoshop.
This is the first version of the app optimized for honeycomb tablets. The software caters to amateurs and established pros in the design industry as well. This sounds like a cool app for anyone that likes to draw and doodle on the road. The app is available now for $5 and works with Android 3.0 and up.
