How to Start Painting with Rebelle 7

[@cntom8233]

I've been a digital artist for 5 years and I've been working my best to simulate how paint works in real life in the common digital programs. I just purchased your program today and I legit had a tear in my eyes when I laid down the paint and it felt AMAZING. Seriously, you guys are amazing

[@EscapeMotions]

Thank you! Happy Painting!

[@Taka_Takata]

Rebelle is the best and nobody knows about it. You guys need some kind of American director of marketing or something... My heartfelt congratulations to all involved, this is magic!

Painting equipment and paint is so expensive, Rebelle has changed it all for me, I can paint for hours and not a single penny spent on any paint and paper.... and extra work of tedious cleaning and all is also gone...what a time to be alive as a painter.. just because of Rebelle.... Love for the developers of Rebelle... you guys have made painting so much fun.

[@EscapeMotions]

Thank you, for your kind words. Happy Painting! ;)

[@LillenArt2]

Thank you so much! I just got Rebelle and although it's pretty intuitive to use. I did not know about some of the specific features. Some of these new features blow my mind. 😱

[@RassamFanan]

Thank you for this informative video. I’m interested in knife painting, however I wonder how I can fully control it and apply techniques like petals, directional lines, scooping paint, etc

[@EscapeMotions]

You can choose from various palette knives in Oils & Acrylics brushes in Rebelle. We will add this idea to the list of requested tutorials.

[@conradohernanvillagil2764]

Amazing , congratulations to Espace Motions developers. Great master art piece of code.

[@EscapeMotions]

Thank you so much for your kind words!

[@dreamyplanet768]

can we get even thicker brushes? like palette knife drawings, 3D esc, popping from the canvas... i really truly love the textures of the acrylic paints and i think even thicker paint brushes would be amazing!

[@MRBallSlapper-gy1lr]

the term is called impasto! i also would really like this feature in rebelle

[@EscapeMotions]

Rebelle has several options how to increase the impasto for Oils & Acrylics. Read our blog post on how to work with texture: www.escapemotions.com/blog/enhancing-your-digital-paintings-with-textures-in-rebelle

[@MRBallSlapper-gy1lr]

@@EscapeMotions the already existing features is great but i think even thicker than this would be fantastic! incredibly thick and textured would be awesome... like 2x if not 5x more thick than the current brushes we have!

[@BBAMEG]

I can't get the Paint and Blend option to blend that well. I realize you need low pen pressure to activate the blending, but I have to have an extremely light tough to get it to blend. It goes from no paint (because I'm using such low pressure) to basically just painting one color over the other without much blending. I hope that makes sense.

[@EscapeMotions]

Pen pressure sensitivity can be adjusted in the Edit > Preferences > Tablet and also in your tablet settings. This should help with the blending. You can also adjust the pressure curve for paint modes of each brush in Brush Creator > Paint section.

I have just bought this program and am following along with your video to get introduced to it. I noticed you have length in your tool options for watercolour and your brush pallet says Watercolor 7.1. I don't have either of these showing. Is there something I need to click on or initiate to have these options? Thanks. Great video.

[@EscapeMotions]

You can bring up the Lenght and Pressure sliders from the menu in the Properties panel. The default brushes in Rebelle 7 were updated in version 7.1, therefore those who had version 7 since its release tried to differentiate these updated assets. If you are using a version later than 7.1 it contains the updated brushes.

[@philjudd3473]

@@EscapeMotions Thanks for the fast reply. I bought this program within the past week. So should this be appearing? Or do I need to go to the properties panel and switch it on. But this is the latest version. 🙂

[@EscapeMotions]

@@philjudd3473 these 7.1. brushes are default in Rebelle now.

[@DamianSwarlik]

can we expect in next update symmetry tool?

[@EscapeMotions]

At this time Rebelle does not include a symmetry option but this is something we may add in the future versions!

[@ll1ain0]

​@@EscapeMotions Does it have it now!

[@jeffhoyle1959]

Great overview. May I ask what palette you use

[@EscapeMotions]

Justice uses Pigments and Metallics color sets included in the Color Set Library.

[@colorfulbleeding]

hello, I think quick fill brushes for color pencils-charcoal (multiple strokes) are missing in the default brush collection to make is great also for charcoal could we get acetone effects brushes?

[@EscapeMotions]

Thanks for these suggestions! We encourage you to post any ideas for future development to our forum: www.escapemotions.com/community/forum/c/17/rebelle-ideas

[@irenebowers4748]

Sadly, I have not found ANY solution to making a file export directly to photoshop as indicated in the video. I've checked the forum nobody seems to have a solution. In fact, many people have complained of this as an issue and still no resolution. Perhaps this can be explored and resolved in a future update, unless there's something I'm missing.

[@EscapeMotions]

You can either save your project as PSD and open it in Photoshop or use Escape Motions Connect (Photoshop plug-in), which is available for users owning PRO edition. Please refer to these installation instructions: www.escapemotions.com/community/forum/c/143/rebelle-escape-motions-connect

[@jennydowde9996]

I can't work out how to get several panels to show on the screen at same time..as in Layers and Colors for example. Similar to what your demo is showing. I should add I am brand new to Rebelle so my question may have a very obvious solution :)

[@EscapeMotions]

In the Window menu you can select which panels you would like on canvas and then you can dock them to the left, right or some to the top of your canvas. This tutorial might be helpful: kzbin.info/www/bejne/moDFeaqmfdypoq8

Still super new to the program- am I missing where to find Gradient Maps??

[@EscapeMotions]

Hi, Rebelle currently does not offer Gradient Maps. We would like to add it in one of the future updates.

[@xRamada]

@@EscapeMotions ooh got it- thank you

[@alisonmeier5826]

Me thinking: Am I about to ditch That Other software forever? Haven't had a chance to really play yet, but this looks amazing.

[@wilddjango]

Hi, you did work on a surface pro 7 with rebelle, my problem is that the surface pro 7 get's terrible hot, did you experrience the same problem and do you have tips about that? thank you

[@Abstrahues]

Hi can you please share the specs of your workstation? My watercolor simulation speed is nowhere near what is showcased in this video

[@john-lee5183]

You can ajust the speed of watercolors in the visual settings. The feature is called "Diffusion speed" and can be found in the watercolor section of the visual settings tab. Have fun 😄

[@Abstrahues]

@@john-lee5183 nah man, it is dependent on your PC specs, even at the highest speed if your PC doesn't have good specs it will still be slow

[@john-lee5183]

You can turn off nano pixels then, Justice told us that in a group painting session. Nano pixels require a significant amount of ram and CPU power. I for example turn it off when painting on the 7gig ram laptop in school. Otherwise I can also suggest lowering the dpi of your painting, making the canvas smaler, paint less at any given moment. This all contributes to how fast you can render the painting

[@andrewsanders7636]

Can this be used to make renaissance or classical paintings

[@EscapeMotions]

Yes! Artists use Rebelle for various styles and techniques. Here is our Gallery to give you a better idea of what can be achieved: www.escapemotions.com/community/gallery

Still No improvement on Fill/bucket tool 😠

[@EscapeMotions]

We introduced a new fill tool in version 7 - there are options to fill with various patterns and gradients. If you have further suggestions on improving this tool, please let us know via email or on our forum. We would love to hear from you!

If only it worked on ipad 😭

[@EscapeMotions]

At the moment the desktop versions of our software are compatible with Windows and macOS only. We plan to release an iOS version of Rebelle for iPad in the future.Many of our users use the iPad with Rebelle - they connect it as a tablet device to their computers. Please refer to this forum post, as it might be helpful for the setup: www.escapemotions.com/community/forum/t/602/paint-with-your-ipad-in-rebelle-works-on-pc-and-mac

[@jetd9716]

It does, but you have to pay for the app. It's called "Easy Canvas" from the app store. Allows you to plug in your Ipad into your Desktop and use Rebelle 7. GL.
