This Tip will show you how to constrain Autopainting so that the drawing is more representative of the Source Image The Paint Synthesizer is capable of generating an extremely wide variety of different paint styles. This tip will focus on explaining how to get under the hood and edit paint presets to change their automatic…
Brush load capture is a new feature in Studio Artist 4 that allows you to capture a piece of the current draw canvas and then load it into a paint brush and use it as a paint nib coloring source. This tip will discuss how to work with brush load capture in more detail.
Typically the paint synthesizer auto-draws by generating a paint path and then painting it in. This process repeats individual path by path. However, you can configure the paint synthesizer to analyze the source image, construct a series of automatically generated regions, and then fill in each region with different kinds of paint patterns. In this…
Time Particles provide a way for individual paint strokes painted by the paint synthesizer to have temporal continuity in an animation. Temporal continuity means that the individual paint strokes are present across multiple sequential frames as the animation progresses. The individual paint strokes associated with the time particles can have their own movement that is occurring over…
MSG Live is a new Source option in the paint synthesizer’s Brush Source control panel. This source brush option uses the current MSG preset to generate a source brush image buffer on the fly when drawing. Any MSG preset can be used to interactively generate the source brush, which means you can use Temporal Generators…
