Ich würde sagen, das Experiment war erfolgreich! Auf den ersten Blick dachte ich, du hättest dich an einem "richtigem" Aquarell versucht. :3

Danke! Ich war auch überrascht, dass es so klappt. Muss wirklich mal mehr mit Pinseln in Photoshop experimentieren.

Ja, das kenn ich! Ich muss da auch experimentierfreudiger werden.

(Kein Problem. )

I picked some brushes with irreguar edges (and some with the little dots) set the layer modes to multiply or color burn and experimented with the brush settings: Scatter, angle, opacity, and made a tick at wet edges. That's basically it - but I varied the settings a lot and tried them out all over the canvas

Unfortunately I don't know where I got them from anymore:/
But the main idea is just experimenting with the brush and layer settings anyways. A normal oval brush with the right scatter and angle settings plus wet edges might already do. In Photoshop a simple brush can't do everything for you like in Painter for example. You need to play with the layers as well...
