My first cinepaint painting!

[drfalkor]

Finally an app that does the job... a very rouge painting of something, a tree on a finger ? I did this in 5-10 min with my Wacom I3 tablet. Sorry for the quality, but I had to take a screenshot of that in cinepaint and paste it in krita, so then again to save it.. ( hmm, weird I cant save files in cinepaint, comes errors and stuff)..

What do you think ?

It looks like something strate from a children's storry book. Very cool! I have been wanting to try this program for a while now. I have not used anything like it in the past. How user friendly is it? Any advice?

Hehe, thank you.. cinepaint is a very good app for painting... advice ? well, use noise sometime on the brushes If you have a wacom, you must enable that in cinepaint ( File > Preferences > And that button to the right -> then enable eraser to screen, the same with cursor and stylus to enable pen pressure stuff and so on )

Cinepaint, and other painter programs are useless without a wacom tablet AND, I recommend you krita over gimp, cause of better wacom support.. and I recommend you MyPaint as an experimental painter program ( its a fun painter program, but it miss simple features like layers and undo )

To get your wacom tablet to work, follow it howto: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=25151 !

The wacom works in: Inkscape, MyPaint, krita, gimp and cinepaint etc... But like I said, krita is better than gimp when it comes to brush and wacom etc

EDIT: Very usefriendly! (only that it looks ugly cause of GTK1, but it works very fast !)

Thanks, that is a lot of usful info! I have been messing around in GIMP and I have a Wacom tablet, but I have not been using it. I am going to have to set it up today and play around.

Hi again, tested cinepaint yet ? and what do you think of that app ?

I finally got a chance to check out Cinipaint. It is a lot of fun! It looks kind of old though. I painted my first pic, but it did not save right. I was going to post it. I have to say though, I have not used my Wacom tablet on Ubuntu yet. I was really dreading it as I hated using it on Windows. But after installing it (thanks for the link) the thing worked better on Ubuntu than it ever did on Windows! I really enjoyed using it. After finding out that I lost the pic I went to GIMP and played around. I am really excited to use the pen now. Thanks!

No problem, but remember to enable the wacom in the gimp

EDIT: And in cinepaint and krita
