    This is not 3rd Thursday by the way lol just an experience with new brushes on Photoshop CC. A totally different way of working for me. What you think?

        It makes your image more "oil painting" vs watercolor. I really like it, your style and your images always make me happy

            Update the value a bit. I used two simple photoshop default tools for the water and the rest Untitled-1.jpg cat-finding-love.jpg

              @Thrace Thank you I really had good time doing the water.
              @Lynn-Larson Thanks Lynn! I'm glad they do
              @gimmehummus Thanks for sharing! Kyle got amazing brushes but I got to play only with couple. For some reason his watercolor brushes run very slow on my computer T_T.

                I can't believe photoshop cc brushes are very powerful.
                "Mommy!"
                "I am not Mommy"
                "Daddy!"
                "I am not Daddy"
                "Who are you?"
                "I'm a whale, I'll take you back to the shore"
                "Meow"

                  @gimmehummus I love those brushes! I have the Megapack and the Watercolour set so far. I haven't even begun to explore all of them..
                  @Naroth-Kean I assumed that you did use some combination of Kyle's brushes since your digital watercolours are so convincing! For what it's worth, when I first got the watercolour set they ran really slow. I was using a 2008 pen/tablet, then when I upgraded the slowness disappeared. Some of them still run a bit slow but it's much more manageable now.

                    @Dulcie the only tool from Kyle I use is his one blending tool sadly. I use my own brushes and texture to create the watercolor effect I have been creating. I need to upgrade my mac it's really old.

                      I had the same lag problem with all his brushes when I used my old Intuos III tablet. Then I got a Cintiq and the problem stopped. @Dulcie I have the megapack, dry media and spatter. I want to hug Kyle for all of them.

                              This time I combine it with my watercolor brush and the result is pretty interesting.

                                        Maybe I should try one of this two techniques for Feb 3rd Thursday. I actually really like the pastel look. Saving-a-blue-bird.jpg
