PhotoSpray offers the ability to spray pictures on top of any RGB photos or layers. This new method of painting lets users brush sets of images on top of any photo, and brushes can be adjusted through a variety of parameters: XY resizing, shadow strength, Hue Saturation Value, opacity, or arithmetic mode. This spray brush is ideal for photorealistic painting. A very important tool for all landscapers, architects, or multimedia designers.PhotoSpray starts with sprays that are a collection of images which are painted at each brush stroke. PhotoSpray has the most sophisticated controls of its kind. The user sprays various images along a grid on the image. Using the directional mode, the spray follows the brush and with each stroke a new image is projected to the desktop. The user is free to change the speed, opacity, and spacing anytime.Using the spray mode, the brush scatters sprayed images randomly and according to the selected brush size. This is an ideal mode for creating photorealistic textures and building natural-looking backgrounds from scratch. At any time, the user can change the size of the spray, adjust the Hue Saturation Value settings, opacity, spacing, or number of simultaneous strokes. In orbit mode, PhotoSpray automatically brushes images according to predefined circular patterns. Users can change the radius, number of repeat, or strokes. It is also possible to assign a rotation speed to the brush, or let it grow or pulse automatically. This mode is ideal for creating breathtaking pattern effects. All parameters can be stored as presets, and PhotoSpray comes with dozens of ready-to-use presets. From the presets the user can create water, fire, clouds, or add fruits and candies.PhotoSpray is the most-advanced sprayer of its kind because it offers many more controls. The user can create amazing new airbrush effects in a few clicks. Features:• control the shadow strength below individual items (an essential feature for a natural look);• independent XY resizing enabling the user to add perspective simulation (leaves on the floor, grapes along a wall);• integrated Hue Saturation Value adjustments;• out of one spray, create limitless variations and new terrific airbrush effects;• easily save and add effects to a library;• adjustable dabs, opacity, an orbital mode;• converts nozzles to sprays, ready to be used by PhotoSpray;• sprays are TIFF files;• easy to create unique textures and natural-looking effects;• ideal for anyone wishing to paint using natural-looking sprays;• ships with a collection of more than 50 realistic sprays including plants, flowers, leaves, trees, bushes, rocks, clouds, geometrical objects, balls, and more;• carefully selected images are all natural, silhouetted with shadows; and• includes a total of more than 50 individual items.
