Paintstorm Studio - Lighting Effects in Paint

Because of all the different adjustable settings within Paintstorm Studio, the brush possibilities are endless. One of the preset sections is all about lighting type paint effects such as stars and comets. This is all done using merely a paintbrush.

One of the things I as a scene designer tends to do is figure out ways to shorten my workflow. An example of this is using salt on my paper when I work in water color. The texture it creates is pretty impressive.
Paintstorm studio allows you to do something similar. By configuring your brush, you can quickly create specific effects, such as a starry night or an electrical field.
