Quick guide to the gallery:
- Slide 1 — Dry brush: mixing primary colors (red, yellow, blue)
- Slide 2 — Watercolor brush: pigment buildup, edge bleed, wet diffusion
- Slide 3 — Value Ruler: perceptual brightness of FG/BG in real time
- Slide 4 — Watercolor brush: Wetness parameter in action
- Slide 5 — Resizable canvas: drag to expand your mixing area
What's new since my last post (two weeks of updates):
🎨 Watercolor brush overhaul — Completely reworked from scratch. New parameters: Wetness, pigment deposition, edge bleed, and wet-area diffusion.
📏 Value Ruler — Instantly shows the perceptual brightness of your foreground and background colors on a black-to-white axis. Helps keep values consistent without breaking your flow.
✏️ Pressure sensitivity — 4 presets (soft to firm). Smudge tool is now pressure-sensitive too.
📱 iPad improvements — Auto-enables smoother rendering on touchscreen devices. Fast strokes no longer break into line segments.
🌐 Japanese UI — Language now cycles EN / 中文 / 日本語
🔧 Under the hood — Near-instant engine switching, recalibrated palette RGB for better KM mixing, per-tool settings memory, improved long-session stability.
