Watercolor Experiment

Trying out some new ideas to create watercolor effects.

Drifters

Another vector sketch effect. These recent experiments are interesting because it seems like you can use vector paint to start to get reasonable charcoal or chalk looks.

Quentin Woodcut

Vector woodcut effect based on a paint synthesizer anti-alias solid brush type preset. It's all built with vector ellipse paint nibs. I've been rediscovering the simple ellipse recently, much more versatile then you might expect. The key is using the paint synth to adaptively muck with the basic ellipse shape.

Old Man Scratches Head

Playing around with vector halftoning using the paint synthesizer. This one is not technically correct, since it's working with RGB fills as opposed to CMY for the 3 color passes. Note the partial dotting, which is the key to getting source detail rendition with large dot sizes.

ConeHead

More gallery show experiments using the new vector ip op effect technique option.

Interesting Patterning

Interesting approach to building textured region fill. The patterning is first formed by thin black lines on a solid background. Then the Flat Color Regionize ip op is used to build the final colored regions.
