I shall be grateful if someone could provide some advice on how I may create a satin finish using Draw and/or Photo Paint X5. What I have in mind can be created with Photoshop (http://www.pixeladdiction.com/bb/articles.php?action=viewarticle&artid=21&page=2) as well as Illustrator (http://vector.tutsplus.com/tutorials/create-a-smooth-satin-background-using-blends/).
I have tried to do the same using Draw and Photo Paint but the gradient fill tool in Corel does not seem to behave in the same manner as Photoshop's gradient fill.
Thank you.

Then i applied some blur to the texture, then some mesh warp: [/quote] Hi Jeff, yes, that's the idea I had in mind. Maybe because of the gold colour you have used, your image looks like a really luxurious satin sheet; very inviting indeed. All you need to do now is conjure up a beautiful lady and you will be all set to go Best regards,Brian.
