Weekly Download: Papers for Corel Painter, Series 1 15 rough and ragged custom textures By Dave Nagel This is our second series of addons for Corel Painter 8. The previous collection of brushes went well, so I thought we might expand our offerings into other areas as well, this time with papers, which are used primarily to provide texture to the various paint brushes, crayons and other tools in Painter. Our collection includes 15 base papers, textured to behave like rough and ragged canvas and other surfaces.

The papers
Our first collection of papers for Painter is a moderate library of 15 base papers, including rough canvas weaves, worn surfaces, crumpled papers and other miscellaneous surfaces. In Painter, papers are used to provide a sort of bump map quality to certain brushes (in other words, to emulate surfaces in traditional drawing and painting media). They can be modulated with the brushes to strengthen or lessen the effect, and they can be modified for detail size, brightness and contrast. (An explanation of this is provided on the next page.)

All of the papers in our first collection are designed as seamless tiles (256 x 256 pixels) and are provided in a single library collection. Here are some samples of the papers used with various brushes.

Now go on to the next page for download and installation instructions. Or visit our archive to view all of our previous downloads for applications like Synthetik Studio Artist, Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, Macromedia Freehand, Creature House Expression and others.
