Bristol · Digital Blackbook app analytics for October 22

Bristol. The most analog digital drawing app ever. The workflow is classic: Sketch › Ink › Color. The UI is minimal: Launch › New › Sketch. Three tools. A fixed canvas. One Undo. No Redo. Designed for skill. Built to show off. Ready when you are. Only on iPad. iOS 26 and up. “What’s in a name? This time: Everything.” — Bill Eisner “An app with an attitude. I love it.” — Frank Niller “No watercolor? Pass!” Rob Boss This one’s for the street. For the taggers, writers, bxmbers. For the kids and crews with their fine-liners and blackbooks. For the comic-, sketch- and tattoo artists. For designers with a fast stroke. For the love of the craft. And craft alone. If you can draw here, you can draw on paper. THE CANVAS (it’s Bristol) Locked by default. No zoom, no pan, no rotation. Draw on screen like you would on paper. Literally. Unlock is for cheaters. THE TOOLS One tool = one layer. Switch tools = switch layers. Colors are tied to tools. Switch colors… you guessed it. PENCIL Sketches start with a pencil. Always. Ours is blue by default. A true classic. INK Outlines are step 2. Probably. Very likely. Mostly. Certainly. Default is black. Of course it is. MARKERS Add colors, depth and shadows. Default is Warm Grey 2. PALETTE Built by drawing. Choose a tool/color combo… and voila: Added to your palette. Like a marker box without the smell (also: no refill). ONE UNDO, NO REDO Errors happen, so undo. Once. Erase, if you want more. Redo is just being sloppy. Or insecure. And you’re not sloppy. Nor insecure. You’re confident. SKILL AND SKILL ONLY Each stroke is yours. No symmetry, no fills, no shapes or patterns. No extra smoothing, no shortcuts. No handholding at all. BUILT TO SHOW OFF Share as PNG or PDF, right from the canvas. Create a blackbook from selected sketches, or present selected sketches live (with annotation). Don’t be scared to share unfinished or rough pieces; we all started somewhere. IT’S YOUR APP Customize it with a motto. So everybody can see it’s yours. FOR THE PRICE OF ONE MARKER One-time purchase, no subscription. No ads or in-app stuff either. We’re not doing this for money. We’re doing it for fun. Yes, Bristol is radical, rough, rugged and raw. If you’re intrigued, tag along. PS: The quotes are made up. We’re being funny. “A stroke of genius”, haha. Get it? Stroke… Follow us @bristol_app © 2006 Kornclub* e.K. Join the club: https://kornclub.io
