AKVIS Decorator

(Mircea Dragomir, Softpedia, March 28, 2019)

Digital artists can create realistic pictures from scratch using just computer applications. However, there are also those which help add finishing touches to pictures, and one suitable example in this regard is AKVIS Decorator. With it, you’re able to convert almost any area of a picture using specific texture settings.

The application’s visual design is neat, letting anyone accommodate in a jiffy. High-quality textures are used to define panels, and various buttons, providing a personal, pleasant look and feel. Most of the space is the canvas, while the rest of controls can easily be handled from a dedicated side panel.

What the application does is transform existing textures using different ones, and blending them together based on the variables you configure. There’s an impressive collection of preset texture categories like animals, brick, carpet, fabric, flower, food, grate, mat, metal, nature, paint, paper, parquet, stone, and more, each with multiple items to choose from.

Akvis Decorator Review

(Karl Hodge, www.macworld.co.uk, 23.10.2007)

Akvis Decorator – may sound like a brand of household paint, but it’s actually a clever plug-in for Adobe Photoshop, from the same people that brought you Coloriage. While the latter helps you add colour to images that have none, Decorator helps you realistically change colours and textures that are already in place. It’s easy to do this in Photoshop when the image you’re editing is a flat, two dimensional design. Decorator enables you to wrap textures around the contours of any object though, following folds and bumps as though in 3D.

 

Akvis Decorator 1.2

(L. Davenport, www.smmug.org, 20.01.2007)

Akvis Decorator is a Photoshop plug-in that lets you apply a texture or color to the surface of your graphic. Want your sports car to look like it is covered in snake scales? Want to see what your kitchen or drapes would look like in a different color-then check out Akvis Decorator.
At first I was wondering why would I need this plug-in when Photoshop already has a bucket fill tool? Well as I investigated further I discovered that unlike the bucket fill, Decorator follows (rather than covers over) the original graphic’s underlying features i.e. the folds and creases of material, thus giving you a more natural look.
As with Akvis’ other plug-ins, Decorator has a Before and After tab that lets you see if you are getting the desired results before applying the modifications to your original graphic.

 

Vermusterung

(publisher.ch - German)

Objekte umdekorieren, dieser Aufgabe widmet sich das neueste Plug-in von Akvis. Decorator versieht das in Photoshop markierte Objekt mit einer neuen Oberflächenstruktur. Das Programm versucht, das möglichst natürlich zu tun und die Oberflächenbeschaffenheit des bemusterten Objekts beizubehalten. Die räumlichen Formen sollten bewahrt und der Schattenwurf unverändert bleiben
