Download and installation[an error occurred while processing this directive]Synthetik Studio Artist 2.0 is, of course, a Macintosh-only program. It runs in Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X. After you download the "NagelSeries3PaintPatches.sit" file, decompress it using Stuffit Expander. If you don't already have Stuffit Expander, you can download it free from http://www.aladdinsys.com/downloads/index.html.

Download: NagelSeries4PaintPatches (184 KB)

The unstuffed folder will be called "NagelSeries3PaintPatches." Place this folder in your Presets folder inside your Studio Artist 2.0 folder. You can place them inside the Defaults folder or inside the Dave's Alpha Enabled Presets folder.



Either way, they will appear in subdirectories in the Presets panel within Studio Artist after you quit and relaunch the program.



To use them on a still image, simply select one and either click the Action button or start drawing. These presets can also be applied to video to create the effect of frame by frame animation of your source material. If you have any questions about these presets (such as using them for video work) or other Studio Artist issues, be sure to visit me in the Studio Artist forum here.
