Ingres paper

Post by slowtiger »

This is a paper structure which I missed a lot, but was unable to photograph satisfyingly until tody when I got a piece of cardboard which was a good enough substitute. I add my crayon settings, this is a fast tool because it doesn't use bitmaps, but delivers quite convincing results. Paper strength should be around 25 - 50%.

I always enjoyed the backgrounds Dick Ung/Tom O'Laughlin did for "The Inspector" and "Pink Panther". Just recently I learned that it was not a paper structure, but paint scratched off a cell which created the vertical linies in their backgrounds. Now this ingres paper structure is a close enough solution for me.

(I'm still a bit confused as how to save tool settings or export them. The manual gives a path where to look, but what I find there isn't named in a useful way.)

- to save tool settings, click on the Bin tab, then click in an empty area,
the tool with all its settings will be stored here, to be re-used later.
- to export them, open a new ToolBar, ... Grab Current Tool,
once buttonized in a Custom Panel, RMB-click This Panel / Export , (or Export as tvpx) ...

ah - I somehow expected to be able to export right from the toolbin - as it is possible with custom brushes. It would be nice if any bin would behave the same way ... But I see that the toolbar holds additional information, like used paper and coloour.

BTW, it's a nuisance that TVP doesn't remember my last used paper. After a restart it always has the first paper in the folder selected - which wasn't my favourite. I now use a workaround: duplicated my paper and renamed it wit a leading zero, s it's the first item loaded.

nice tool& paper Slowtiger!

When you have to do large surfaces(like the backgrounds you mention) its a maybe a good idea to change the size connection profile

so that doing broad strokes will requiere less pressure(and thus effort) and only when you need more precise(smaller) strokes you need push a little bit harder
see image:
(you do have to set the size a bit bigger....at about 60)

Thx for that tip. I never bothered to play around much with pen pressure profiles - I have adjusted it only once with the tablet driver, that's all. But I'll try that one.

Generally I tend to use only a handful of tools, be it on paper or digital: one or two brushes, one certain felt tip pen, two pencils. I'm still in the process to eliminate all tools from the toolbar which I don't need or which results I just don't like.

Nice tool settings !!!
It gives a kind of chalk brush, I was missing something like that.

And the cardboard paper is great too, Thank you Slowtiger !

OK, here's a fast BG with both the paper and the chalk/crayon.
