Hi there all, I'm new to 3D coat and I am attempting to do some hand painted textures. I seem to have run into an issue how ever and I'm not sure what is going on. When I attempt to paint on my model the brush has suddenly become very, blown out. Its harsh, doesnt react to pressure sensitvity, its very bright. I will load a screen shot so you can see. Any ideas on what might be going on? thanks. Tyler ( Kihea )
