AboutNeal Ziring Expertise Experienced user of versions 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and X3 mostly for
web page graphics, some photo retouching, some technical document
illustration. Right now I only have versions 12 and X3 available to me,
so I'll be best at answering questions about those.
Question I work in corel draw to create screen printed designs and I am having trouble creating a "splattered paint" effect. I've found lots of patterns, but I'm really trying to get that "took a paint brush and flung it on to a wall" look.
Any thoughts would be appreciated,
Chris
Answer Chris,
Hmmm, this is not easy. There are a number of plugins that
can do this sort of thing for Photopaint, but I don't know
of any for Draw.
It seems to me that one good way to do this would be to draw
some nice paint splatters, and from them create a Spraylist.
The CorelDraw help has information on how to create a Spraylist
(note: spraylists for Paint and Draw are DIFFERENT).
Drawing the individual splats might be easy with Preset strokes.
Another approach would be to create a splattered paint image
in PhotoPaint, and then import into CorelDraw as an object.
