But the watercolour is WAY more fun in Rebelle 3 than in any other software, hands down. Linework is more pleasant to do in Affinity Design or in Artrage. The reason is because there’s a slight lag to Rebelle 3 which makes linework pretty unpleasant.

I recommend using different software to do your linework (or import after drawing by hand - this is what it’s meant for). This is the first illustration I did in Rebelle. You can import Photoshop brushes into Artrage but the more sophisticated ones won’t work as you want them to. On the other hand, the power of the brush engine is out of whack with the underwhelming layer management options. But I haven’t tried out Rebelle’s brush engine yet.

If you want a whole lot of image based brushes which you create yourself from scratch, I think Artrage is for you.

Although Rebelle shines in realistic watercolour, take one look at their forum and you’ll see Rebelle used to create all sorts of different types of art - from washy and bleedy to hyperrealistic.

(Mac users complain that the Artrage devs have ignored them.) If your computer is more than a few years old it won’t cope with Rebelle 3, in which case go with Artrage (which will run slowly, but it does run).

Both require a good graphics card and lots of memory to run smoothly.

So the only way around this is to go in and change the canvas colour (even if the canvas is set to transparent!) to the colour I WANT dotted around the edges). I have reported this as a bug and learned it’s not a ‘bug’, but some unavoidable quirk. But I still have no idea why I so often get green, or if other users have found the same! Also, this may only be because I know Artrage better and am familiar with its quirks, but if you smooth around the edges of a locked transparency layer, the edges incorporate the colour of the canvas (white by default) and you get that colour dotted around the perimeter. I have actually learned to go with this and my style has incorporated it as a result. In Artrage, I so often come out with a green colour when mixing two non-green colours.

Colour selection and mixing is more complex and ‘true’ in Rebelle.

(Pushing paint around with a straw/hair dryer etc.) The main one being: the hand blowing technique of painting as described here.

There are therefore things you can do in Rebelle that you simply cannot do in Artrage.

I’m pretty confident the skills you learn in Rebelle would transfer back into the real world, where you’re painting on real watercolour paper. You could do any watercolour course and apply the realworld techniques digitally, without spending a fortune on paints and papers.

Rebelle is therefore better for watercolour, a medium which is heavily influenced by the thickness, wetness and tooth of the paper.

You’ll see the difference as soon as you try it. All other software out there mimics the effect of paint interacting with paper. There is a genuine, physics based interaction between paper and media.

Rebelle paint interacts with the paper.

I find kids love these features but few professional illustrators make use of them, partly because of printing limitations, partly because of wanting to avoid… kitsch?

Artrage features lighting effects which allows for metallic textures and glitter, and Artrage 6 offers more control over lighting direction than Artrage 5.

But this is no copycat mashup - Rebelle still does its own thing. They utilise the best UI features from Artrage, Paintstorm Studio and Adobe products. The Rebelle team seem to have made careful study of what’s out there.

If you already know one of these programs you’ll easily learn the other, because they are similar.Rebelle is quicker to learn because there is less to know.If you’re working on a piece which requires maybe 50-100 layers, Rebelle isn’t going to be the software you’re using from start to finish, but is still useful if you want to create some layers in magnificent watercolour, which you can then export and use in a different piece of software. Basically, the developers don’t MEAN users to make heavy use of layers.

I have read the manual cover to cover and now I’m sure of it - though I found it unbelievable - you can’t group layers. The reason I could never fully utilise Rebelle 3 as my main digital art software is its very limited layer management. But if watercolour is not your thing, Artrage has a lot more functionality. The short answer: nothing matches Rebelle 3 for digital watercolour simulation. If you have to choose, which should you buy? In my case, would I get much use out of Rebelle when I’ve been an Artrage fan since 2011? With both, you can pick up your pen and start drawing right away. They are both excellent, lower-priced digital art software which replicate real-world media and painting techniques. Artrage by Ambient Design, and Rebelle, by Escape Motions, are in some ways similar.
