  • Hi Darway,

    that was done in CorelDraw Essentials, and the image is a bitmap, so it may have been using Corel Painter Essentials. You can easily do the same brushstrokes as shown in that video using Corel Photo-Paint X4. If you open a blank document at whatever size you need and then click on the "P" key on your keyboard you will get the Paint tool. Look on the left hand side of your Property Bar and you will see a drop down box with various brush types in it. Choose whatever brush type you require. You can then choose a nib shape, also on the Property Bar. Adjust the size as required.

    If you want maximum control then open the Brush settings docker (Ctrl+F8) and there are more controls there than anyone knows what to do with! LOL. The settings in there allow you to control things like how a brush stroke tapers off (e.g. starts thick and ends up thin), or the colour may vary along the brush stroke or the brush stroke may beccome transparent by the end of the stroke....etc.

    Let us know how you go.

    Best regards,
    Brian.

    • when i draw in corel photo it will get bad quality on the line how do change it?

      • Hi Darway,

        you need to be much clearer on what you are saying if you want helpful answers. Bad quality tells us very little. If you can either describe what you mean by bad quality, or better still - attach an image with what you are getting and what you actually want, then we can provide more specific advice.

        I am not meaning to insult you in any way here, but if you are so new to the program that you don't know how to change tools or change line thickness yet then you really need to read the manual. You need at least some basic knowledge of Photo-Paint before you should start asking questions or you won't understand the answers.

        Best regards,
        Brian.
