looking for a function

hello,

 

I am just trying out the program Fresco and the way it works with the watercolor is pretty nice. My question is now if photoshop has a similar function? 

 

I like to use photoshop for drawning and I have something in my mind that I want to create. working like painting with watercolors on paper would be a nice way to create my idea but I can't really find a suitable function for what I have on my mind. The pensils in photoshop come close to it but not completely. The way fresco works seems to be a good way and I am going to explore this more but it would be more easy to be working in the same program for 1 drawning, especially if it is for details. A background would be okay to import from some where else but not everything would be possible ofcours. 

So does anyone knows if photoshop has a function where the colours/pencil strokes mix like in fresco?

    It does not. (Edit: at least to the best of my knowledge and if I interpret your description correctly) 

     

    At least so far, feel free to post a Feature Request (»Idea«) but don’t expect too much.

      Like I said, I have already tried many brushes but have not found it. I just tried it with some new brushes from the link you posted but that is not what I am looking for. 

      The colors are mixing depending on the type of brush I use but not like in Fresco. There they react different, I don't know the word to explain in english but like when you have a glas of water and you drop a little bit of colored water in it, the colored drop will get bigger and go in all different directions in the glas of water. That is what I like in Fresco. And with the brushes in Photoshop I only get a change in color but the first brush strokes I made, won't change it chape. That is what I would like to know if it excist in Photoshop.
