Question

Possible to get the Brush bigger than 5000px size?

Hi people,

I'm working on a very big asset for a booth design and I'm using the standard smooth circle brush with zero hardness to color the artwork. I would need to get the brush  with an higher size than 5000 px.

Is there any way to sort this out?

Plug-in or some sort of hack is well accepted.

 

Thanks!

Are you working 1:1 in size? If so you need to talk to your vendor and work in scale. 5000 px is the max allowed. There is no need to work so large at full scale.

The artwork is 3 meters wide and 2.4 meters height. People will be very close to it and we are aiming to a very high quality artwork, so I would want to avoid to scale everything up.

Dag, I almost tagged you when I first saw this thread.  The idea of having Apple Retina type pixel density on a very large print it obviously crazy not sensible or required, but you are better at explaining that sort of thing.  It might be interesting to compare the pixel density of 4K TV displays.  IME, even when you get uncomfortably close to a 4K TV, the image is still essentially pin sharp. 


Indeed. My own rule of thumb is that if the image exceeds 20 000 pixels or so, for whatever purpose, you need to stop and think carefully about whether you really need that. Most likely you don't. 20 000 pixels is a random number, but roughly the boundary between atmosphere and outer space 😉
