Next Limit PAINTER software?

I know the spectral color math in Maxwell would be great for calculating real world pigment mixing, but it also occurs to me that the fluid dynamics math in Real Flow might be adaptable to paintbrush, wet paint, canvas interaction.

You mean like a 3D "2D App" with flowing paint and all? Awesome idea i say!

That's a pretty cool idea, i like that! but it would probably require quite a fast monster machine to work well..

Z brush is what you want?

Ok.. why simmulate Oil on canvas on a workhorse machine with a $2000 software if you can USE REAL OIL ON CAVAS? hahahhaha If you need that all only for the UNDO feature I'd recommend talking a few painting classes

sorry to jump , but real oil is just ... unbeatable

Indeed there are plenty of tools out there and artrage is as close as you get from real painting..
) And it is EASY to trace!

But digital oil is cheaper in the long run and less smelly in a small apartment.

jfrancis: Using RealFlow particles imported into Cinema4D with the FlowTracer shader it's possible to get a decent mixing of colours.
Messing about, I once partially filled a tank with 3 RealFlow particle emitters, imported the seperate particles into Cinema and gave each one a seperate colour - don't know if the rendered result was accurate but it looked nice.
The downside - rendering particles makes Maxwell look fast!
