iShodo & Photo Brush

March 13, 2009

Hi all,

Are you enjoying iShodo? About 2 months has passed since its release. I continue to make at least a sheet of work per day. Though I agree that black monotone color is one of Japanese calligraphy’s elements and that is a cool point of iShodo, sometimes, sooometimes I feel an impulse to use color  in iShodo work.

So, with other applications, I decorated my iShodo works. This time, I used Photo Brush by Bobby & Sam’s Software. The followings are parts of my works! So cute, aren’t they?

Photo Brush is an application to “customize photos by using your finger as a paint brush and a large assortments of designs in a rainbow of colours as paint.” Lite version is also available!

If you’ve already enjoyed iShodo with other applications or in another amazing way, why don’t you show it to us on facebook?

Of course, we are developing new applications, at the same time, we are improving and finding a new way of use in the current apps!

Hope your continual love for ZeptoTools,

Bye☆

Hi! hottest news is here!

 

 

Our new iPhone/iPod touch application is now available at AppStore! It is “i-Shodo (書道)”, the application of Japanese calligraphy. You will enjoy smooth writing not only traditional Japanese letters, but also any words of any languages. Also you can draw pictures with it.

 

It reproduces the quality of Japanese calligraphy such as “tome” (stop), “hane” (upward brushstroke), “Harai” (sweeping) and the line will be blurred when you write many strokes or long lines. Then, add ink in Suzuri (ink pod), and the blackness of blush stroke become stronger again.

 

Once you write down any stroke on Hanshi (Japanese drawing paper), cancelation of it is not be allowed. It may be inconvenience to some people, but it is one of the strict realizations of the process of Japanese calligraphy. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes!

 

 

You can save your works, send them to twitter and view other users’ calligraphy on the web. Let’s enjoy it with other people!

 

 

It’s only 99! How cheap!!
