Barb's Easter Egg Nozzles: FIXED AND REPACKAGED!

The Nozzles are all now CROSS-PLATFORM and have been REBUNDLED into thematic nozzle libraries. (Fewer downloads & smaller file sizes)! These files were designed for use with the Image Hose in Fractal Design's Painter 4 and 5, and can be used with Corel's Painter 6 and 7.

Happy Easter Everyone!

How I made them: The Easter Eggs were built on a Power Tower Pro 225 Macintosh Clone, using KPT Bryce 2.1 and Painter 4.0.3. I adapted preset textures and patterns from Bryce and Painter for most of the surface treatments. I built the chocolate egg textures from scratch using Painter's Marbling system and the Distorto brush. The textures and patterns were applied onto a basic egg shape and rendered out from Bryce. I built 3 views of each egg, at -30, 0, and 30 degree increments, so the eggs could be hosed from the nozzle with a 'teeter-totter' appearance while retaining the correct lighting. The sets of picts were then turned into nozzle files in Painter.

These are all 2-Rank nozzles. To get the "teeter-totter" effect, set Rank 2 to sequential. To remove the "teeter-totter", set Rank 2 to None, and all the eggs will stand upright only. More hints on the stuff in the "Notes for Use" section.

	Alien Metal Eggs: An unusual organic/metallic egg shape in 5 different colours.
	Cybereggs: 6 different industro/cybernetic textured eggs.
	Softly Painted Eggs: 8 different patterns in soft, blurry colours, just like real, hand-painted eggs.
	Swirls & Spirals Eggs: 6 different eggs in hand-painted swirls and spiral patterns.
	Patterned Eggs: 8 eggs in a variety of bolder, more geometric patterns Like real, hand-painted eggs.
	Embossed Eggs: 6 different eggs in embossed, geometric designs.
	Marbleous Chocolate Eggs: 7 different marbled chocolate eggs. Yum!
	Beautiful Eggs: 4 soft, luminously beautiful eggs.

Here's another fun trick using Painter 6:
Using the Alien Metal Egg Nozzle, choose the following settings:
Nozzles ->Set Nozzle Scale: 100%
Brush Controls ->Expression ->Rank 1: Sequential, Rank 2 Sequential.
Brush Controls ->Spacing: 1%
Image Hose ->Linear-Size/W
then draw a quick line across the page or in a circle. It'll make your eyes pop!
