    Been playing around with ArtRage recently. It's a piece of software that's been mentioned around here a few times, but in rather hushed tones and without much action. I got it some time ago, and then, with life scattering in all directions, never did anything with it. But it's a fun program, and it actually does watercolor rather well. Here's a little mess-about I did today... took less than five minutes (I wasn't following a plan). And some notes on the settings I used to achieve the effects. Hopefully you can see the possibilities. And watercolor isn't the only thing ArtRage can do. It can mix oil paints with beautiful results as well. Not the topic of this thread, though. I'm certainly looking forward to doing more with this program.

    EDIT: Oh yeah, I just did this using one of the provided paper textures, and you can see where it repeats itself (ick). I believe it's possible to use your own paper textures, but I haven't tried that at this point.
