![]() I look at these advancements and wonder why Adobe has been apparently resting upon its well-fattened hind quarters on its comfy marketplace laurels as this is something that *they* coulda/shoulda developed by now being the billion $ software company they are. On the bright side you’re brush offering has reawakened that desire for that specific brush effect and since Adobe has *yet* to perfect that effect I searched out the source and was thrilled to find that Corel Painter not only still exists as a Corel product, but discovered that their brush engine technology has evolved significantly beyond what Photoshop offers since I last looked ( and I find that I still qualify for upgrade pricing with version 8), the way I’ve found that Apple’s Motion5 has a far more advanced *animatable* brush engine than Adobe After Effects.Ĭorel’s latest advancement is with an approach they call *Particle Brushes* which do indeed offer the bristle paths I was looking for and more. Whenever I see what’s defined as *brush pattern* I immediately fire-up the 12″ X 18″ WacomĪnd try stuff out in search of that specific brush performance pattern. If I’m missing a setting then please advise asto the proper application of htese brushes unless I must proceed with a single illustrated letter at a time and then reduce in order to assemble the parts in order to make the whole word. ![]() I find that I *still* have to return to actually hand-illustrating those ragged edge-effects on my Wacom myself best asI can manage, but still appear consciously stylized somehow. Sorry, I so *wanted* to like this brush set, but found myself *always* having to return to the Brush tip settings adjusting angle & calligrapher’s oval and never quite getting that natural brush bristle-streak effect ,least of all at the size of normal brushes. *Painter* had a far more manageable *Sumi-brush* that created that very bristle-streak brush signature footprint ( brushprint?) that leaves that wonderfully ragged edge that makes Japanese bursh calligraphy so very distinctive that are suggested in the photos. ![]() My sing e most friendly complaint is that at an average size of 2,500px, unless you have a a mural-sized flat screen ( I have a 24″ Intel-based iMac ) the otherwise beautiful lateral streaks of the bursh-bristles deteriorate when you set the size to more moderate sizes.
