    Default free painting software "Speedy Painter"

    08-10-2012, 12:16 PM

    Hi to all!
    I've developed a simple and FREE drawing software called "SpeedyPainter".

    I think this could be a useful resource for sketching and creating drawing processes demos.
    Indeed, among its features you have the possibility to export the whole drawing process in a file, and replay it again. It can also export the drawing process directly in an avi video file.

    Here is a list of the program features:
    . Multiple layers
    . Reference view that follows canvas movements! Available pressing the F3 key
    . Export drawing process into a video: ready to upload it on YouTube!
    . Ability to vary stroke size and/or opacity according to pen pressure (supports Wacom tablets)
    . Replay of drawing process
    . Import/export drawing process
    . Loading of most common image formats
    . Canvas rotation
    . Canvas flip
    . Selection mask
    . Image crop
    . Perspective grid overlay [NEW!]

    You can download the software here:

    Here are some screenshots of the application in action:

    Canvas rotation:


    Perspective grid overlay:


    Avi video export:




    Another useful feature is the "reference view", by which you can load a reference in a separate view and all the movements (zoom & pan) you apply to the canvas will be applied also to the reference view. This video shows the "reference view" feature in action:


    This video shows the perspective grid overlay feature:


    More videos are available in this video playlist:

    Hope this software could be useful to this wonderful community!
    Sincerely,
    Andrea

        Maybe your video card does not support OpenGL 3.0 specifications. What is the name of your video card?
        I am trying to extend the support to older hardware, I hope you will be able to try SpeedyPainter soon
        Kind regards,
        Andrea
