Editor review of Toonworks Deluxe |
2006-04-14 |
With Toonworks Deluxe you can create magnificent drawings using a great variety of options. The program is designed primarily for children but can be attractive to adults as well.
Before you start your project, you are to decide what exactly you would like to create: a poster, a coloring page, a calendar, a greeting card or a placemat. You can start drawing from scratch or select one of the backgrounds and frames offered to you.
Toonworks Deluxe allows you to produce drawings quite fast because many ready-made elements are at your disposal. For example, if you want to draw people, you can make them up of ready-made parts combining the items the way you like: bodies, eyes, ears, hair etc. Besides, there are ready-made faces and even whole characters.
If you wish, you can draw on your own as if you were using a pencil or a paintbrush. There are also tools allowing you to draw straight lines, rectangles and circles. What's more, you can type words anywhere on your drawing for example to personalize your greeting card.
You can not only change colors but also apply different color modes (full color, greyscale or black and white) and fill modes (circular gradient, vertical gradient, transparent, gradient transparent, ice or gold).
The characters, as well as the separate items that they are made up of, can be adjusted in many ways: resized, expanded, shrunk, inflated, deflated, rotated, flipped and slanted. You can group and ungroup objects, align them and move them to front or to back.
Toonworks Deluxe lets you apply some special effects and see what would happen to your character if it, let's say, gets struck by lightning or melts.
Besides, the program allows you to add pictures acquiring them from cameras and scanners.
Toonworks Deluxe allows you to save a created drawing as a Zazzle gift item to design your own t-shirt, card or poster. |
