blending brush


#21

Workbench i agree those are just tweeks i just mean a complete overhaul would be pointless… there is painter for that and most of us use both

Indeed but it would mean less swapping of the image files and the small troubles that come with it like un supported modes between painter and Photoshop .

If Photoshop can come up with a blending engine to go with its awesome brush engine ( which AFAIK is borrowed from the painter brush engine but is more intuitive and has lesser settings to tweak ) then it would mean that I spend lesser time in painter and more in Photoshop which is what I would prefer.

The blending option can simply be turned off when desired. Whats wrong with that ?:slight_smile:

Try the smudge tool with roughly these settings:
Opacity: ~20%
Scattering-
35-45%
count of 10-15
Other Dynamics-
Strength Jitter set to pen pressure

The other options, particularly the brush tip shape, min diameter, etc. are variable, but those are the key options you’ll need. If you have a slow computer, just turn spacing off. You get a slightly different feel for the tool when spacing isn’t on, but it’s still just as powerful. Start out with small brushes, on a smaller res image until you get a feel fot it. Overall, it’s touchy, and takes a little bit to get used to, but it’s very powerful. I use it nearly every time I use Photoshop. Hope this is helpful!
