A developer shared the V2 of Sudoaquarelle, a browser-based watercolor simulator. Key features include:
- Physics & Color Models: Based on Curtis et al.'s SIGGRAPH paper, it uses the Kubelka-Munk model to accurately predict color mixes with 52 available pigments.
- Artistic Effects: Supports experimental techniques like salt and alcohol for texture alteration, plus a backlight effect for a glassy feel.
- Code Mode: Prints real function calls alongside the canvas while painting.
The creator is currently developing a kid-friendly version.
