The other problem with PaintStorm - this crew doesn’t put out good documentation, at least not in English. The brush engine is really cool, but so different from every other brush engine out there that each time I go back to it, I’ve forgotten exactly how it works. PaintStorm is a powerful but buggy/laggy program. Let’s talk about PaintStorm Studio for a minute. One, I already have plenty of excellent software that does the same thing and more. In that time I was impressed enough to buy it, but I purchased it for my 12-year-old, not for me. You get a very short trial period (like, half an hour?) rather than a month of opens or whatever. Hence, I’ll write my first impressions here. I’m not sure how many painters looking for this exact bit of software are actually going to find it.


Google search for ‘realistic paint’ software and pretty much every major digital art software has used it in their branding, which means all the others rank higher. I would never have found Realistic Paint Studio had I not been on their mailing list.
