I’m trying to figure out Artrage. As an impatient student, I just jump in without reading the manual. I start pushing all of the buttons and try all of the Photoshop keyboard shortcuts (they don’t work). I immediately tweak the brush settings and screw them up irrecoverably and have to reset them. Without a clue how to make my own brush, I try anyway and end up frustrated. In the end I resort to using one of the default oil paint brushes (the Normal Square brush) and paint the guy with a bowl haircut. And…I’m happy with it. Artrage is a blast, and it runs without breaking a sweat on my seven-year old PC. Very cool, Artrage.

I’ve scoured the web looking for Artrage tutorials, but they are scarce. Daniel Ibanez is the most prolific and informative Artrage user I’ve found. Check him out.
