We have another great Vector Premium tutorial available exclusively for Premium members today. If you want to learn how to use a combination of programs – including Adobe Flah and Corel Painter – to create a vector image with a soft painted finish, then we have an awesome tutorial for you.
This Tutorial is Filled with Creative Techniques
Starting with a digital sketch, we will use Flash to begin drawing our image, bring it over to Painter to color it, then finish off with Photoshop for some final color tweaking. A graphics tablet would help immensely during the painting stage, but it’s fine if you don’t have one.

I do not have a premium membership but just wanted to say the final project looks nice. Hope the quality will come back to this site after the last couple of horrible illustrations.
Outstanding.
Wow! Amazing.
Gorgeous result.
The result is really amazing!
Flash and Corel Painter? WHAAAAAA – ?
Haha, just a bit out of the norm I suppose, but makes a good break from the old Ai.
Great final result however, so it’s certainly worth using the slightly unorthodox tools.
That tutorial is awesome,and with Corel Painter? I have to try this one
She doesn’t look Japanese
Awesome work none the less!
great tut. thanks.
WOW! this is first i seen (Flash+Corel Painter)
But i think the result isn’t a vector.
Lol… you’re right in a sense… it’s not a true vector considering all the processing it’s gone through. The final result came about with a tedious mix of painting in Corel Painter (you could use Photoshop if that’s what you’re comfortable with), but the ‘skeleton’ of it was entirely vector… if that helps~
RE: Corel Painter
I work in the graphic design industry and every once in a while I run across a canvas artist who has crossed over into ‘digital painting’ and every single one of them prefer Corel Painter over Photoshop. I’ve played around with it a bit and the brush support is incredible when doing life-like paintings in comparison to Photoshop (using a Wacom). Painter was simply made for ‘true’ canvas artists while Photoshop focuses on a much wider audience.
you use tablet right ?
heyo, yes, i did use a tablet, definitely~
