Then Mark ?
Is that in the to-do-list or not-to-do ?
Simulate sounds horrible, and results would be that horrible.

I think that is the point where one would rather become a real painter using
real oils, pastels, brushes ... one would become a sort of digital artsy
artist. At last what illustrators do.
Bah... if someone likes it go ahead. What I can't get is why some one have
to simulate something if other would do it authentically.
