david.atwell 290 Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 I really think it is important to have featherd brushes integrated into Paint.NET - that is one of the things I still use PhotoPlus for. v4.0.

oma 29 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 very impressive especially like the soft brushes just gave that a try out and think it might give me a bit better control when I have to make like wrinkle or laugh lines or more tiny spot highlights on those faces. I'll try some of this within the clothing on the next step of my Indiana Jones inspired work. LOL! amazing stuff you paint.net guys never fail to come up with new tricks for me to learn. :wink: Quote My Deviant Art Gallery Oma's Paint.Net gallery Link to post Share on other sites

gamexprt1 0 Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Your tutorial makes me feel stupid. What the heck is a reference point and what in gods name does the clone stamp tool :x ? Specify! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Simon Brown 46 Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 The Clone Stamp Tool repeats part of an image. Use it holding down ctrl and it copies the part of the image you are moving your mouse over. Then when you draw with it normally it copies that part of the image.

k.digennaro 2 Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 very nice wither, congrats on getting it stickied i have one question/observation, and please correct me if im wrong (im usually wrong lol) isnt using the clone stamp for the air brush effect similar to just using the paint brush and setting the alpha down? iono if that makes sense. but heres what i did. ^^i can already see the difference, it was one of those things i couldnt really tell till i put them next to each other, the left side is just the paint brush with a low alpha, the right side is withers method. nice job wither ill definitely use your method, it allows much more control and just a much crisper and cleaner brush stroke.

Wither 13 Posted February 13, 2008 Author Share Posted February 13, 2008 Glad to see it worked out... Just to reiterate what you noticed there. The following was all done with an opacity of 80. The top is a quick streak across. The second one down is a slow 'smooth' streak. The bottom is the clone stamp method. What's great about it is that regardless of how quickly you move the brush around, it maintains a consistent softness. Quote YouTube | Myspace | deviantART Link to post Share on other sites

drew 1 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Wither, I really like this tutorial, and I think you did a magnificent job putting this together. Your wittiness increased the greatness of the tutorial, too. I'm ready for another great tutorial! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mykael 0 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Well, you seem to be well on the way to potentially reinventing the way painter does it's natural media and image hose brushes. Might want to check for any Patents before you go much further - Initial filing/assignments would probably have been under the name 'Fractal Design' around 1990-1993 in the US. Subsequent assignments may have moved ownership to Metacreations or Corel. Useful keywords could be 'natural media' and 'image hose'. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jerry533482 0 Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Awesome effect! I'm even trying to make a nebula tut based on this. Also, there actually is a smudge tool that's been published.

Zieon Eslador 0 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Jerry, look at the date of this thread. Also, anyone who reads this, you can soften the eraser by lowering the opacity of your primary color.

jerry533482 0 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 I've noticed when airbrushing, you usually come to a point in the canvas where the effect stops. Is there a way to circumvent this; or can Rick change PDN's code to fix this? It gets very annoying. It does the same thing when you use the clone stamp for clone stamping. Perhaps someone can use the concept this tut uses to develop a real airbrush plugin. That would be cool.

Yusuf Zah 0 Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 (edited) Wow, this is simply great. Now people can run Burn,Dodge and whatever you mentioned in Paint.net. As the making feathered brushes here is a bit tricky, you can blur a black dot, run B&A and use custombrushesMini to make a brush. Although it may not be as good as yours. By the way, smudging is now possible with pyrochild's smudge tool. Simply run it on a layer and smudge whatever you want. Thank pyrochild for the smudge tool.
