You are quite right.

@Bruno and Richard

Thanks.

coooll

I was the same!

However by converting your vectors to Bitmaps you are basically doing what I suggested but through CorelDraw rather than PhotoPaint....A vector converted to Bitmap is no longer a vector and paint will give you better control over editing your bitmaps. You can also smooth lines in gradients and such. Try a motion blur as well as a Gaussian blur, clouds are not static objects after all. Hope this help :-)

@PommyJosh

Thanks for the suggestion.  My solution in Draw was to convert several layers of filled bezier shapes to bitmaps and then apply Gaussian blur to each.  That got me to what you see.

I admit to a certain (unfortunate) fixation on vector which I find hard to break..

Hi Otto, you could try editing your image in Photo Paint once finished in Draw...thereare some nice blur and smudge tools which give great cloud effects if used correctly.

@Rtist

Thank you.  Getting the softness in the edges of the clouds was a challenge for me.

good theme !
