Multicolor brush

#1

Hi, I was wondering if there was either a plugin or some way to make multi preset color brushes,

eg my brush would look like this:

And I would get something that looks roughly like this:

Any idea?

hi, this is possible in Painter, but - not in Photoshop, as far as I know,

Could it be done?

Go to Brush window and then turn on “color dynamics” option, then choose background and foreground color and that’s it. In foreground/background jitter set how much percentage they will mix(i ussualy set to 1%), and control set to “pen pressure”

Cheers

Um, have you actually used this feature before in this contexr? It jitters the color along the stroke, completely useless for the purposes of the example.

… yes, exactly,
Photoshop dynamics is not the case, I am afraid,
it only works (changes the color, saturation etc.) along the stroke,
but not in terms of separate bristles (I hope my English makes sense here),

I did not have time yet, but - if I have tonight, I´ll try to post a screenshot of what you can get in Painter,

… here is what I got in Painter,
if this is what you were looking for - this type of behavior is controlled by Color Variability,
it is not aplicable for every single brush within Painter, but with Acrylics (which I used for the test) it works fine;

the first green stroke was painted with Color Variability off (all sliders = 0%),
the second and the third one were painted with Color Variability active … (this time I used the HSV controls);
hope it may help, a.

Ty for checkin that. Any idea whether an implementation in Photoshop would be possible via a plugin and who i’d have to contact?
