I recently went through about 30+ packages in the Android market trying to find a tolerable paint app for Android, and they all failed spectacularly when I compared them to my minimum "equivalence with Deluxe Paint" metric (proper zoom being the biggest one, which is a bizarre thing to do badly on a platform where most users will have tiny screens), but it's the same on Linux. GrafX2 is reasonably close in terms of functionality but the UI is very cluttered.



Pixelesque is the standard-bearer on Android. If you're looking for the zoom, try pinch-to-zoom gestures.
