Hello erone,
Big question... I only have painter classic and I dont use it very often at the moment.. So I work with Photoshop.. Annndd well my problem is that my pics always end up looking like watercolored pics! What do I do wrong? Vectors are too extreme and with PS I always end up waterish.. Lemme know if you think you know what the problem is! Thanks

post an example of what a picture you've made that gets this result

this was based on a quick sketch I made, fooling around with perspective and such.. I stopped, being tired and then couldnt find the time to keep on working on it- but you can sorta see what I mean...

maybe you dont like that too many hard edges of transparent brushstrokes are showing? try using a brush with soft, fuzzy edges like an airbrush and use a higher opacity once you get to the point youre at in the image you showed, or at the point you feel ready to start in with the color.
