Milestone for Digital Painting
The newest release of Corel Painter has an exciting feature called the RealBristle™ Painting System. The technique enhances the interaction between the paint, the canvas, and the brush, creating a very traditional feel. The bristles in the brush behave in a very similar manner to that of a traditional paintbrush. Because the brush system is also customizable, many variations are possible. There is an animated demonstration on the Painter Studio website.
Another feature is the Artists' Oils painting system. Using the Mixer palette, you can mix different colors together just as you would traditional paints, and then load the brush with a finite amount of paint from the blended colors. As the paint is used up, the brush stroke becomes fainter, just as it would in traditional media.
