New! Gel brushes and Merge Modes: The new Gel brushes let you tint an
image’s underlying colors with the brushstroke color. For example, a yellow
brushstroke gives the underlying color a yellow cast. The effect is similar to
blending layers by using a composite method, except that the Gel brushes paint
directly on the canvas. You can customize Gel brushes by using the new Merge
Mode brush controls on the General brush control panel.
New! Digital Airbrushes: With six new Digital Airbrushes, Corel Painter 12 now
helps you achieve stunning airbrush effects. These new airbrushes produce effects
similar to blend modes in Photoshop and work in concert with the new Computed
Circular brush controls. The controls let you determine how brushstrokes interact
with each layer of the canvas by adjusting opacity and hardness.
