Brush stroke suggestion #41

Open ugocapeto opened 3 years ago

ugocapeto commented 3 years ago

Instead of having a fully opaque brush stroke, would you consider a semi-transparent one, basically obtained by grayscaling a real brush stroke. Similar to what's being done here:

This a classic stroke based renderer which simulates oil painting/digital painting. Since not AI based, it probably creates too many strokes but the use of a semi-transparent brush stroke makes the rendered image more realistic/natural.

@ugocapeto Thank you very much for the reference. Their result looks cool. In fact, we do have a semi-transparent stroke setting. If you switch to our water-color or marker-pen brushes, then you will see that effect. In oilpainting, the reason why we don't apply that is that we want to have a thick paint effect.
