Painter 4: Brush Sizes

This ought to work in later versions of Painter, as far as I know... ^^; You will only find this useful if you own a pressure-sensitive tablet. This tutorial lets you create brushes that vary in size nicely, especially compared to the doody default options! Painter 4.0.3 lets you use interface skins, if you're wondering about the flame-coloured palettes. *grin*

From the brushes palette, pick Controls and then Size. Another palette looking something like the below image should appear on your screen.
Opening the Size palette
The Size pallette. Oooo. <<
Change the Size of your brush to whatever you like, drag the +/- slider all the way to the right to allow for decent size variation when you use your tablet. Hit 'Build' and you have your new brush! Try playing with brush end types and size stepping to create new effects.
