COREL PAINTER 2018: PAINTING APP ADD TOOLS TO UNLEASH YOUR ARTISTIC POTENTIAL
Artists of every stripe—fine art, comic art, photo art—rely on Corel Painter to create original works, as its natural media methodology uses tech to mimic paint on canvas.
As with many mature products, it’s hard to fathom improvements in historical software that’s already so deep and complete. But each year Corel tries, and with ($429, available ; $229 upgrade, available ; $99 Education Edition available ), it has managed to add significant enhancements and new features to the roster—Thick Paint, enhanced Cloning, and 2.5D texture brushes. Improved drip and liquid brush technologies let you paint on an empty layer and then blend with underlying brushstrokes.
