What is Paintstorm Studio?

Paintstorm Studio is digital painting software built around a fast, customizable brush engine, developed by a small Russian development team. It offers bristle, double and textured brushes, a mask-brush mode where any brush can act as a mask for another, symmetry and kaleidoscope tools with up to 100 rays, and 2 and 3-point perspective guides for illustrators working on complex scenes.

Unlike many modern art applications, Paintstorm Studio is sold as a one-time perpetual license rather than a subscription, currently priced at $25 on its official site, discounted from $49.99, and includes free lifetime updates. It runs on Windows, macOS and Linux, with a separate iPad version sold through the App Store, and supports Apple Pencil pressure and tilt input.
