ArtRage 2.5 adds tools
Ambient Design has released a major upgrade to ArtRage, its illustration program that simulates the effects of real-world materials. Paint smears and blends, while chalks and pencils smudge. Version 2.5 of the software introduces stencils and rulers, allowing users to mask out areas to creat proper curves and lines. The program also introduces the Smooth Blender and Precise Pencil, as well layer content transformations that allow one or more layers to be moved, scaled and rotated. Finally, print output can be specified in terms of inches, centimeters and millimeters, as well as the desired DPI resolution. The program costs $25 and requires Mac OS X 10.3.9.
