PD Howler 2022 is a fast digital painting and animation software for PC.
PD Howler is a digital paint program; it already comes with many brushes, and tools to create your own, import more brushes, including particle brushes for foliage. Some brushes respond to tablet pressure. Some even respond to sounds. Yes, you can play Wagner’s Valkyrie, sing long with Alan Walker, listen to the intensity of a violin in the hands of Esther Abrami, or whatever inspires you musically, and see how it affects your very own visual art 🙂 Howler is awesome for nature painting. Some brushes react to pressure when you have a digital pen (such as Wacom tablet). Other brushes react to the volume of music(!). Or to the speed of your hand. The angle of the brush stroke and pen. Some also will react to “behind the scene” alternate images (Swap buffer holds a greyscale gradient image, used to affect the size of the brush). There are tools for 3D content going into the brush too. And animated brushes. Howler does animation too. You can work with video. You can paint with video on stills or on video There are many Filters, applying on still images and across videos, keyframed, special effects, composing with other images, compositing (blue, green, magenta, magic pink and other screens), etc… Realistic 3D landscape rendering video and animation post-FX: Motion estimated interpolation, Rotoscoping and chroma keying, compositing and lots more. If you work with video clips, this will be a great tool as a companion to your video editing solution. PD Artist, the little sister to Howler, doesn’t do animations (except for animbrushes) – but it’s equally great for painting. PD Howler has a bunch more filters, meant for animation but of course also applicable for single-frame use. You can render the filter into a few frames or many and then pick the best from it, if you still only want a still image.
