      @Subpath I have Rebelle 5, maybe I'll have to upgrade at some point as this develops! Can SVG's be filled like stencils? The examples the linked video shows with the vector file affects the path itself

        At the moment only a brush can follow the Path.
        Filling a Path is not possible.

        Its also strange that it is not possible to create a selection from
        a path. But I think all of this will be added in the foreseeable future.

        But there is a workaround to create a filled path.
        I'll post a little video about it here

        What like at this Feature is that almost all of Rebelles brushes follow a path.
        Also the Eraser and Liquify brush.

          Here a Workaround for filling a Path
          I think the best way at the Moment is to create
          a Stencil from it as i show it in the video

          Here the Video

            Here is a slightly better way to fill a Shape of a Path
            using a Stencil.

            Here the Video

              Short Update on SVG-Paths in Rebelle 7

              Since the latest 7.1 update
              You can use multiple Paths and Stencils
              at the same time now. Also both together.

              Creating a Selection from a Path is now possible.

              Filling a Path is now also possible, in this way:
              Place a Path on the canvas
              create a Selection from the Path
              and fill the Selection.

              Stencils can be created from a Selection.
              Also a Selection from a Stencil.

              All in all, that new improvements make working
              with Paths and Stencils in Rebelle more useful.

                Rebelle version 8 is available in Early Access.
                There is a Standard and a Pro version.

                Only the Pro version now has Bristle Brushes and an improved Impasto,
                which can be used to create interesting 3D effects.

                I came up with the idea of trying out Impasto with stencils.
                Stencils are simply grayscale or black and white PNGs, for
                which you can also use Vectorstyler vector graphic designs.

                Here are two examples:

                Here another try, were made with two stencils

                  Cool, thanks for sharing. I first heard about Rebelle yesterday, and I'm going to see what it can do for me.

                    gladly,

                    when it comes to using/refining vector graphics created with Vectorstyler,
                    Paths and Stencils in Rebelle are particularly the most interesting.

                    Rebelle also offers, in my opinion, the best digital watercolor simulation.
                    Oil painting is also pretty cool. One should not expect miracles, because
                    ultimately, this is a digital simulation and not the real thing.

                    Paths are vector graphics in SVG format and can be quite wild. A brush in
                    Rebelle still follows each individual path like a ruler. This also applies
                    to the eraser, liquifier, smudge, and water brush.

                    Stencils are simple grayscale or black-and-white raster graphics in PNG
                    format. Stencils are like Masks you could brush over it hide the stencil
                    and you have your design.

                    Paths and Stencils can be converted into Selections.
                    Currently Selections could only converted back in Stencils.

                    There is no Text Tool in Rebelle, but you could create a Stencil
                    from your Vectorstyler Text and use this in Rebelle.
                    .
                    .
                    Here how wild Paths could be, a brush will follow every
                    single Path. This could mean a lot of handy work.

                    .
                    Here i made some test using the Watercolor brush along a Path
                    and one using the Liquify brush.
