I've had Corel Painter on my computer for quite some time, but it had always been to slow to handle it. Until Darrick gave it some new brains, and now Painter actually works in real time. This is the first thing I've managed to finish in this program, so tell me what can be improved but be gentle! I didn't particularly know what I was doing-- I was using the charcoal brush which looks like a chalk pastel, but when I blend it, it just looks all soft and smeary. I need to find a book about this program...
