Top 10 Reasons to Buy:
1. RealBristle™ Painting System replicates the sensation and interaction between traditional paint and canvas with your pen and tablet. This represents a major milestone for digital painting by making brushes totally responsive and creating the most realistic painting experience.
2. Realistic Artistic Media includes marker, pen, pencil and chalk media that reproduce the look and feel of their real-life counterparts in a way that no other software can!
• Pencil & Chalk: Control shading by changing the angle of your pen on the drawing tablet. Choose whether to draw with the tip or shade with the side of the nib – just like in real life
• Marker: Intensify color with each new marker stroke, so you can color in one continuous shade, or create a buildup of color
• Pen: Choose to create fine pen strokes, or thick strokes and ink deposits, by changing the velocity of your pen stroke. The faster you go, the thinner the line; the slower you go, the thicker the line
3. Customizable brushes let you create your own brushes in the type, size or pattern of your choice, so you can make custom brush strokes and create artwork that is truly unique.
4. Customizable surface texturing gives your art added artistic undertones, plus a level of texture and detail that other photo and digital painting tools can’t produce. You can choose paper textures for your canvas, or create and customize your own textures to produce really unique artwork.
5. Photo-painting tools let you transform photos into paintings by hand. Or SmartStroke™ brush technology (in the Auto-Painting Palette) paints a photo for you, following the lines and contours in the picture just like a real artist would. This lets you take the best of both worlds – photography and painting – to create new forms of art.
6. Color management features include improved color recognition for imported files and individual color profiles per document, to make colors more accurate when exporting and printing your artwork. This saves you time by having fewer color corrections to make.
7. Smart composition tools such as Divine Proportion and the Rule of Thirds and Fifths help you visually arrange your canvas before sketching or painting to create perfect compositions.
8. High speed and performance leverages multi-core systems to quicken the processing time when painting, and making selections and transformations, so you can spend less time waiting and more time creating.
9. Adobe® Photoshop® support maintains colors and layers when transferring files between Photoshop and Painter. This saves time when importing and exporting artwork between the two programs.
10. Wacom® support for the entire Wacom product line, including Cintiq® pens and Intuos® pen tablets, gives you the best digital art experience and most responsive painting tools, thanks to Painter’s compatibility with this leading tablet technology
