Project Dogwaffle 2 is a paint program for the PC which also includes animation features. Started in 1997 as a project to work around shortcomings of the established ‘big guns’ tools used in the professional community, it is loaded with fast or realtime filters for color enhancing in digital photos and animations, special effects and many built-in natural media brushes.

Dogwaffle also has powerful user-defined custom and animated brushes, fractal particle brushes, full tablet support, non-opaque layers, artist guides, powerful color gradients, great text tools, special FX for sky, snow, wet paint and even effects used commonly in 3D CG such as lens flares, as well as full Alpha support with direct painting on Alpha. Perfect for the hobbyist on a tight budget who likes to explore colors and shapes, and equally useful for web artists, game content creators, cartoonists, designers as well as in digital photography and traditional animation, Project Dogwaffle almost lets you paint the natural way – but without the mess.

NB: After installing PD 2.0 get the 2.1b update free download at ProjectDogwaffle.

PD Particles is a software program for sketching, doodling, painting and drawing with particle brushes. It is loaded with features made for professionals, yet priced low enough for retired artists, students and hobbyists at all levels. If you like to draw and doodle, this is for you!

PD Particles is perfect for PC users with a passion for creativity. It is based on a standalone version of the award-winning particle painting system called OptiPustics, found also on Project Dogwaffle.

PD Particles also contains a number of fascinating natural fx brushes and can be used as a complete, self-contained painting program. However, it is primarily intended as companion to your existing favorite photo editing, imaging and painting tools and it is focused on the use of a particular category of brushes. It’s great too for making tall grass, shrubbery and bushes or use on 3D billboard polygons!

Note:

This giveaway includes the full installer of PD Particles 1.0. A free update patch is also available at www.thebest3d.com/pdp as well as additional free plugins and companion tools such as Penny paint, a Spline based drawing engine made specially for cartoonists and anime artists with a fast hand.
