Excellent work !

I wonder what would happen if used with the dirt option of the PPalette. Did anyone try ?

I've said it before: Superb brushes.
Imagine how they can be used in animation.
I will paint all shadows in my film with them, as well as smoke, fire and other effects.

The A+B picker doesn't work for me (there is no "BcolfromAcol.grg" is the tvpx format still buggy maybe?)
could you post the grg script seperate?

hehe... only 4 ? I had 6 George folders, 4 on my main HD, 2 others on a secondary drive.
it seems it's time for you to think of doing a serious cleaning (as I did a week ago or so), I have only 2 folders now.
a task that's inevitably coming one day, specially for us, beta-testers ... :wink:

This corresponds to the Canon Plugin. To fix this, please reinstall the Plugin.

Help! Now there are about three different watercolor type downloads. I seem to have the original one installed which looks marvelous, the Hizko brush with four different varieties? Although I haven't made any adjustments to it and am not entirely certain I know how to maximize it's potential... then there is the wetcolor tvpx file ,and another watercolor tvpx, and, a bin/data related download. Is there a final one? Or do they all somehow work together? Any instructions in a single forum entry as to how all of these are supposed to work would be truly helpful for me if someone happens to have the time.

Oh one last question, somewhat off topic, I would like to create a SINGLE FRAME pretty picture using these brushes, possibly destined for print, how can I increase to a very high level resolution in TVP?? It always seems to give me problems...

Thanks!

Marc

Just create a project with the pixel dimensions you need. For every cm printed size you'll calculate 120 pixels.

The ones posted at the top of this thread are the brushes that's been finalized. These brushes are different to Hisko's brushes as they are based on Custom animated brush, and hisko's based on the TVP pen brush. You can you them in conjunction. It's all about taste and purpose in the end.
And someone ( :wink: ) already took the time to explain how they work - the jpg placard at the top is the instructions.

The Transparent one gives interesting results with PPalette dirt ! Good idea (i'll post a test picture to show it asap)
