It’s Realistic Paint Studio! It’s my favorite program of all time.

I’m such a huge fan of the brushes and colors, it puts to shame the brushes I’d pain over for hours in photoshop to try and replicate watercolors.

But I don’t think it’ll be for everyone; it doesn’t have layer modes (i.e. multiply, overlay etc), it doesn’t even have in-program image cropping. It doesn’t have custom brushes either, but you don’t really need them.

What you do get though is a very simple and fun to use program that produces really fantastic results. It’s twice as easy for my computer to run photoshop, even with the option for it to automatically record a speed paint enabled. I’d absolutely give it a go, considering it even has a free trial (and to buy it, its $19 dollars right now, $25 for the “deluxe pack”, both being a lifetime license).
