RealBristle Painting System
This new painting system heightens the responsiveness of the brushes
and represents a major milestone for digital painting. You can now
faithfully replicate the sensation and interaction between the paint,
canvas and brush.
Composition Tools
Divine Proportion and the Rule of Thirds
help you visually arrange a blank canvas prior to sketching or
painting. This is ideal for helping you create stunning
compositions, whether you're painting from a blank canvas or
cropping a photograph before transforming it into a painting.
Widely used throughout history by artists, designers and architects,
divine proportion is a ratio of approximately 3 to 5, which is generally
recognized as aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Corel Painter X provides
palette controls for the Divine Proportion composition tool, which let you
adjust the orientation, size, angle of rotation, display colors, opacity
and grid levels.
Workspace Manager
Easily customize and back up your workspaces, as well as export and
share them with friends and colleagues.
SmartStroke Painting
Create brush strokes that follow the lines and contours in your
original photo. By enabling Smart Strokes, you can dynamically change
brush size, stroke length and pressure, based on the detail and focal
areas of your original photo.
Universal Mixer Palette
For multicolor selection, this palette gives you better control over
color blending between the Mixer palette and the canvas.
Match Palette Effect
Match the color and intensity between 2 images. Just open an image that
features your desired color scheme and use the Match Palette effect to
bring that color to the image you want to change.
Enhanced Compatibility
Let all your tools work together with
improved Wacom and Adobe Photoshop support
Corel Painter X offers a broad range of digital painting, sketching and
illustration tools that inspire creativity, increase performance, and
further extend file compatibility with other industry-standard tools and
applications, such as Adobe Photoshop.
Increased Performance
Painter X is optimized to provide artists with the fastest version of
Painter ever. Depending on system hardware, brushes perform up to 35%
faster, while opening and saving files is up to 200% faster!
Photo-Painting System
It's now easier than ever to create stunning paintings from
photographs. Major improvements offer greater control when underpainting,
and new SmartStroke technology uses brush strokes that dynamically
adhere to the lines and contours in the original painting.
Underpainting
This palette includes color schemes based on various artistic styles,
such as Impressionist, Classical, Modern, Watercolor, Sketchbook and Chalk
Drawing. You can also match your Underpainting palette to that of any open
image.
Auto-Painting Palette
Automatically apply random paint strokes that vary in stroke type,
direction and pressure. Choose the type of brush stroke and adjust the
preset options to determine how the brush interacts with the canvas.
Dodge and Burn Tools
These new image enhancement tools make it easier than ever to prepare
your photos for paintings. The Dodge tool lets you lighten, or overexpose,
specific areas of an image. Conversely, the Burn tool lets you darken, or
underexpose, specific areas of an image.
Adobe Photoshop Support
Maintain layers when transferring files between Corel Painter X and
Adobe Photoshop. Improved layer grouping and combining, and enhanced
support for layer merge modes, help you work more efficiently.
