Rope the Beast | Gimp Paint Studio 2.0

Rope the Beast | Gimp Paint Studio 2.0

This painting was done in Gimp Paint Studio 2.0 (GPS), and took approximately 3 hours to complete.

This calls for celebration! Mr. Ramón Miranda was so kind to port Gimp Paint Studio (GPS) over to Gimp 2.8.

For those of you who aren’t in the know on this. This is a wonderful set of brushes, color pallets and a slew of other stuff, geared for artists that use the Gimp. I really enjoyed using Gimp Paint Studio with Gimp 2.6, but when the move was made to Gimp 2.8, some of the functionality for the predefined brushes were broken. rendering it useless for my work flow.

But the sun does come up in the morning, and this wonderful man has done a great favor for us all. And I dedicate this painting to him.

For those of you who are interested in installing it, it is really easy.

First go to the download page HERE

And download these files:

  • sessionrc para GPS 2.0
  • GPS_Extras _old
  • GPS_Gimp_Paint_Studio_2_0
When you are finished downloading the files, unzip them and dump them all in the Gimp 2.8 folder.
In Linux this is located in you “Home” folder under your username, and it is hidden.  So, you will need to be able to see your hidden files.  To do this completely depends on the file browser you are using.  I suggest doing a search to find out how to make hidden files view-able for your specific file manager.
In windows, by default, it will be located at C:\Documents and Settings\\.gimp-2.8\  .  It is also, most likely, hidden, and you will have to enable ‘view hidden files and directories’ in your view options.

    I personally think this is one of your best works that I’ve seen, then again, I am a fan of things a bit darker feeling to them.

    Oh. Hi. *blink*

    Anyways, her pose is absolutely brilliant and the fade to dark is wonderful. I don’t usually comment however I felt compelled on this piece.
