nice pic btw
There's a lot more limitations in Artrage. You cant get watercolours or dry brushing by just selecting a tool. Corel Painter is better. But I lost my trust in Corel Painter after it completely messed up a painting i was doing. I saved it and I lost all the colour I had there. It was horrible and I had to paint it over completely. 20ish hours of work destroyed because of some sort of bug. I never touched Painter again and I probably won't because of that incident.
Artrage is a nice fun software, very easy to use, very intuitive (in a good sense), but at times it feels like it misses a lot of useful options painter has - like all the brushes, different types of paint, etc. But for 25$ it delivers a lot.
painter is great fun but i tend to get lost in it wide range of options - though by comparison to photoshop the lines are so much better
that really sucks as regards your painting! have you found if they've done an update?
I'd say Painter is easier to work with. You just find a setting and off you go, it basically paints for you. Photoshop is superior in editing the image. And if you are happy with 'airbrushing', Photoshop can be good. The only thing i always hated about photoshop was the difficulty I always seem to have with the line control: its almost never what i want when i try low opacity settings and as airbrushing, it doesn't have that smudge-fun of painting with a palette knife in Artrage.
Painter upgraded to Painter X, I think it was Painter IX that fubared my painting. But it was a big blow for me, its difficult to restore my trust in software that can potentially do such things.
cheers for your help and keep painting
