Well almost :lol

I know a few of us here have purchased the software Flame Painter.
Forever i have been trying to mimic this software in Gimp.Well i guess it all boils down to the typeface right?
I couldn't build a brush that would produce this.

Font is called Shite

XCF is attached but all you need to do is
Create the type
Alpha to select it
Fill with the gradient full color spectrum (left to right)
Duplicate this layer 3 times
Top layer = 20 gaus blur
next layer under = 15 gaus blur
next layer under = 10 gaus blur
The original stays unblurred.
Thats pretty much it - enjoy!

I tried to download Shite and I kept getting shite.exe which is not usable in Linux.

Found this website where you could download the font without exe in it.

Link removed. It doesn't work properly anymore. I was lucky I got the font.

Found another link. It downloads as a zip file.

I could not get to anything without a toolbar install, could the shite font be posted please

That's strange. The url I got the Shite font from no longer just downloads the font. It has an exe file. I've zipped the font and attached it.

Thank you 'O', I stay away from any installer that mentions toolbars

The Library blocked O's link so thank you O for posting the font.

Okay now someone make a brush that can do this with gradient dynamics.

Bristles-01 (64x64) is pretty close.

And smaller

rod: looks great with the brush, i must have missed this before. hmm... i have an idea *hops off to play*

AnMal · **Posted:** Wed May 01, 2013 2:50 pm **(#14)**

here's my attempt: ek22-style hair brush, gradient paint brush dynamics, a gradient called "hippie blanket" and the g'mic rodilius filter.

and this was too fun to just stop playing with, so here's another one - same basics, but different settings (i used layer modes and moved some of the rodilius sliders about a bit) and some of jayprich's specular bumps added as highlights.
