"Huge jump from v3 to v8 - glad I did it."
What do you like best about Rebelle?

Huge changes from my Rebelle 3. The additional features really help this amateur learn more about what I'm doing but also make the job easier. Not that I have more time to play around and use the program it made sense to finally upgrade. I just wasn't using it enough to warrant the changes. But I'm very impressed with the upgrade and Christmas pricing. Ease of implementation really helped me and I'm hoping the ease of integration with my other work will pay off as I help my Son's church. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rebelle?

No upgrade option from v3. That would have been nice but waiting and seeing today's Christmas sale, while not an upgrade price (big difference if I had a new version). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Perfect Digital Watercolor Experience with Seamless UI"
What do you like best about Rebelle?

I love the simple user interface of Rebelle, which makes it easy to use for intermediate-level artists. I also find the watercolor paper cold pressed textured canvas and the watercolor and ink-based tools essential in replicating my real-life watercolor style. The initial setup was awesome! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rebelle?

I wish there was one made for iPadOS or at least for computers with integrated graphics to make it more accessible without losing its imaging abilities and qualities. This program truly does a better job of replicating real life watercolors and other mediums, yet it is hard not to wonder how it will keep up with the real life constraints of peoples financial situations, as the people who benefit from this software at the moment are the niche creators.

"Realistic Painting Experience with Rebelle"
What do you like best about Rebelle?

I love the intuitive environment of Rebelle, which provides a refreshing traditional painting feel in the digital realm, something highly valued for being unique. I deeply appreciate the capabilities of the brushes and how they interact with each other to mimic color blending very similarly to real-world paints. This feature allows me to achieve textures and colors that I haven't been able to achieve with any other painting software, making the creative experience authentic and enriching. Additionally, the initial setup of Rebelle is incredibly easy, as I just need to open the program and I can start painting immediately. This greatly simplifies the creative process and allows me to focus on my art without distractions. For these reasons, I am completely convinced to recommend Rebelle, giving it a 10 out of 10 in that recommendation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rebelle?

It could improve the customization of the screens and allow them to be arranged to the user's liking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Realistic Drawing Experience with Creative Tools"
What do you like best about Rebelle?

I love how Rebelle serves as a perfect tool for my schoolwork and is a substantial source of charm due to the unique style it enables in my drawings. It excels in creative expression where other software like Photoshop falls short. I appreciate all the comprehensive tools it offers and the incredible realism they bring to digital art, making it feel almost as if I'm working with physical media. This authenticity makes the creative process genuinely engaging. Additionally, I am impressed by the dedication evident in the tool's development; it's clear that Rebelle is made by creatives for creatives. The setup of Rebelle is incredibly user-friendly, especially the newest version, which makes the paper setup process automatic and seamless. The interface is intuitive, which makes getting up and running with the software a breeze. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rebelle?

I feel that Rebelle could benefit from better integration with Photoshop, as the connection between these two tools could be improved, though I havent really tried the 8 pro version just yet Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A phenomenal software to mimic traditional art mediums"
What do you like best about Rebelle?

The authenticity of it. How well it mimics the real mediums. Especially love the water draining down in the watercolor brushes, the impasto of oil brushes, and my most favourite - the metallic brushes. Bought the new upgrade for the symmetry tool. All in all a really good software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rebelle?

I don't see any downside to it at the moment. However, a few things you can consider are creating a Discord community, which would make it easier for communication and resolving queries. Also, if there are a few more feature upgrades to the timelapse setting in the software. This would greatly help in exporting and marketing artists' work on social media.

"Great digital painting software with a traditional feel"
What do you like best about Rebelle?

Compared to other digital painting software (Photoshop, Affinity Photo, Procreate, etc), Rebelle has the most realistic look and feel of traditional tools. The watercolor spreads, the oil paint is layered, and I can replicate the dusty textures of charcoal or calk with little effort. The parameters of these features can be adjusted to fit personal style.

With its realistically textured canvases/papers and customizable brush effects paired with a graphics tablet, it feels great to work with.

The exporting features are also good for when it's time to prepare a file for print. It even has a feature, NanoPixelExport, that allows for scaling up without ruining the quality or delicious textures that you've worked hard to create.

And it's a perpetual license! None of that predatory subscription pricing that so many other companies require. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rebelle?

The selection tools could use a little more love. I find myself making some final touches in Affinity Photo, for example, just because it's better at selecting specific ranges or areas. Rebelle isn't primarily a photo editing program, though, and it's not fair to expect it to have the same tools as one.

Depending on workflow, this may not be an issue for most people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great to use"
What do you like best about Rebelle?

It's the pick up and play nature. Unlike other, similar, software you just pick your canvas, pick the tool, brush and let rip. It's my go to software when I want to relax and just create without the software getting in the way. As of typing a new fashion project is getting underway and this is my daily driver when it comes to putting together the initial sketches and some of the more refined designs and colour sets.

The range of natural media is great and with the Pro version being able to mix colours as you would on a physical palette only goes to enhance the experience.

Easy to install and run, activation is reliable, I haven't had any issues and I've been using it since the 0.75 beta version, bought solely on the strength of the Watercolour engine which has only gotten better.

I haven't had to contact Customer support in my own personal use, however we implemented version 3 at work as a network version and the customer support was great.

As it supports .psd files loading in files from Photoshop (and visa versa) means cross software use is about as good as you'd want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rebelle?

The brush system can be a wee bit awkward to use ( without a bit of fiddling in the Brush set up menu as the pressure sensitivity can be a bit sensitive. I nearly always have to tweak this in my Wacom tablet properties interface when swapping between Photoshop, Painter and Rebelle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Best of Both Worlds for Digital Traditional Art"
What do you like best about Rebelle?

Rebelle is amazing. The simulation, the detail, the natural feeling of putting pigment on the canvas. I didn't do art for a long time and Rebelle has got me excited to draw and to paint again.

The UI is intuitive and everything is extremely customizable. The brushes are superb. The colour mixing is the best on the market.

And if you don't want any of the simulation features, you can turn off or pause any you don't want to use and have an extremely responsive application for typical digital art.

If you're interested in digital art in any way, Rebelle is a must try. It's the most innovative art application in the space, and it's showing no signs of slowing down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rebelle?

It's really hard to find anything to dislike about Rebelle. Maybe that there isn't a portable version of it yet for phones or Android tablets, but that would be a tall order for some of the processing power required for its simulation features. Besides that I think the only criticisms that can be said of Rebelle are nitpicks.

It can be resource intensive, moreso than most other art applications so this should be kept in mind. Even still it is extremely responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"New features are a great upgrade!"
What do you like best about Rebelle?

I just bought Rebelle 8 pro version (upgrading from Rebelle 7 Pro) and the new features are a delight to use! Overall optimization really impacted drawing and fluidity of the work. Awesome upgrade and I'm looking forward to next versions now with the 1-Year Free Update policy! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rebelle?

Right now, the only thing I dislike is the look of the interface. I just feel we could get a little love from developers with a more intentional and easy interface, but it's definitely a personal preference, however. I don't consider the interface bad, I'd just like more options to customize and tailor it to my preferences! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
