I'm trying to learn how to spray paint my car for the concept car contest... I just tried spraypainting at 10% opacity and 45% flow.. It seem to be working, I'm able to build layers tones ok..?. Are there norm or standard setting to get the best out of the spraypaint tool? Maybe a brush setting something? Or a mode? Normal / screen something.
I'm sneaking up on this spraypaint stuff,.. but if somebody can head me in the right direction, I'll officially thank them in my acceptance speech..
I want to create a spray paint brush that has the same effect that you get from a spray can within Photoshop. I messed around with various brush effects with the airbrush option enabled, but I cant seem to get a real spray can effect. Another problem that I see is that I don't get enough dispersion, what mean by that is if I have a 50px brush, the maximum dispersion I get is 50px, so I never get a true spray paint effect.
Sometimes I get an overspray on a selected object. The object is selected and then inversersed. The object is then setup to be painted on the outside. I select a hard brush @ 100% and start painting..like I said it will be ok until I get to certain portion and I get like an overspspray. I have the setting on 0 feather on the marque tool, but there is no other setting on other tools for feathering. The object is in the regular ps mode and is not layered.. "how do selected an object to insure that I do not get any paint on the inside"...Are there more adjustment I can make that I do not see.  I am using cs5.1 extended
I'd like to use something similar to the eroded "spray" technique similar to what is used in this photo. Can anyone offer any suggestions as to how to accomplish this in Photoshop CS?
I'm creating a landscape plan, and I would like a method for creating leaves on the trees. I can draw an initial leaf and copy it, but then I'm confronted with the tedious task of resizing, rotating, and pasting them onto the tree hundreds of times over. I know that in some drawing programs, there's a random spray tool that allows you to continuously paste a selection at random points within a given radius. Is there a tool like that in Photoshop, preferably something that also randomly modifies the size and rotation of the selection?
I have a 256x256 image I want to use for my counter strike spray. When I spray the image the background is white, I just want the outline of the Counter Terrorist to show but I just carn’t figure out how to do it.
how to make an image background clear so only the outline shows?
When I was testing out the different features on Photoshop I came across on that was like spray paint, but it allowed me to use set patterns vice regular colors. I can't remember how I did it, but I was wondering if it's possibile to do the same thing...when I find it again...but with a picture I had taken instead of what they give.
making a spray paint/stencil look on one of my photos,
I want to have the spray paint look messy with the spray paint overlapping the edge of the stencil, and I want to have add some paint drool to make it look realistic.
Does any existing action or plugin that produces a realistic "cut-out template / spray paint" effect like the one seen here? Â I know I could accomplish this manually, but it would take a lot longer and I have a series of these I need done.
I am working on a file (see attached) where I am trying to show a machine spewing out a stream of diamonds. (It is supposed to be a carbon purifier for the air, using nanotech to break the Co2, release oxygen and make diamonds as a waste product) Anyway I can get it to work to the point where i want the diamonds to now pile up on the ground. I have tried to get massFX to make the diamond particles interact with the ground plane but have had no luck so far.
I have tried to put the rigid body on the Super Spray and also on the diamond model?
I'm trying to spray some leaves that I have added to my symbols on my canvas, But they end up being sprayed all in the same direction, I want them to be sprayed randomly not all in one direction as the first original leaf, Basically I want to get such a illustration: Â http[URL].....
The paint.net clone stamp does not seem one quarter as good as the photoshop clone tool. Â Is there a clone plugin that has opacity and spray settings. Â While I am asking, is there a airbrush spray plugin for paint.net.
Is there a way to use some of the pre-loaded brushes from Paint in Draw?
My list of  pre-loaded brushes in DRAW is much shorter than the list in Paint. I'm specifically hoping to be able to use this brush in my Artistic Media in DRAW. Or do I need to create a new brush in DRAW? I would prefer not to have to work in Paint at all.
I just need a spray can that just sprays dots in DRAW (instead of the clipart type images that are part of the default).
How do I get a normal brush or spray function? Now, when I release the mouse button, the lines turn into a fancy balloon image. I know that comes from the Brush Stroke List or the Spraylist File List, but how do I turn those functions off?Â
I have been trying to make an Artistic Media Spray spray of three images and when I apply them to a shape, I get mess. I can do it fine with one image but when I try to use a few image it doesn't work.  I have looked for a tutor and not having any luck.
I'm trying to make a snow spray effect (you know, when you run really fast in the snow you kick up this fine sheet of snow...) - it's for a signature on another forum :>
But, as a near-nab, and not a lot of experience with the basic brushes, I can't really get a realistic spray effect coming off. Maybe I'm just rushing it too much and not really experimenting with different brushes...
I'm trying to make the edge of this image like the colors on a soap bubble, I've looked at tutorials for doing soap bubbles. It's not usually included in it. Sort of a blurred shiny transparent coloring if that describes it at all.
I have 7.0. I scanned in a drawing, saved as jpg and now wish to use the paintbrush on it. however, as soon as I click on the picture to paint, the entire picture moves, and the brush is not active.
In the photoshop user sept. issue magazine there is a tutorial of how to make a photograph into an oil painting by way of photoshop and painter IX, my question is, how can i complete the oil painting look from a photograph/image by just using photoshop and if I can ,
I have a project open in a 3d view to paint on a 3d mesh. Everything is fine until I save, close, and reopen. When I open the file to resume I can no longer paint on the model. I can still go to the UV (flat) view for any of the materials on the model but I can't paint on the mesh in 3d view.  I can open a new 3d layer, re-import the mesh, save and reapply all the previously painted texture to the new mesh layer and keep working but this seems not a very efficient work-flow.  I don't think many 3d pros actually use this piece of PS for texturing.This is the first time I've tried the 3d functionality of PS so I may just be overlooking something.
I was painting on top of a picture I took, with the Art History brush one day adding an oil painting look to it (I was working on a new layer and not the layer with my photo on it), at end of the day I saved my work I had done so far and quit the program. The next day, I went to continue my work. When I loaded my work, added a new layer for a new section of the painting I wanted to do. The Art History just painted in white instead of adding the oil painting effect I got the previous day. I picked the same brush presets and the colors on my palette were set to the default colors (the way they were the day before). so that I can continue on with my painting?
I am new to digital painting, and would like to get to know it better. Right now, I want to mimic the style of the attached image. My question is: how do I archive this look? (i.e. what brushes do I use, what tools? Blur? Smudge? etc.) (I am using CS5)
I am currently working on somthing that will require me to make cartoon characters and color them. So far ive drawn them on paper and put them on my computer. My plan was to scan the image to my computer and use it as a template to place vectors over and reshape them.
Any good way to make cartoon characters using photoshop.
