This is the one that always makes me think of DPaint:

I just got nuclear nostalgia whiplash when I scrolled down and saw this:

I used to play with those brushes as a kid, and I'd completely forgotten about it until just now!

    I had Brilliance but I remember the image of Tutankhamen's although i don't remember where from. I dont remember if I had Deluxe Paint or not.

    I wish I still had my Amiga. Maybe I'll try to find a way to install it in qumu.

    Brilliance also has a page on that site - that image looks familiar, was it on the box cover?

    Yes it was, it was also the splash/loading screen when you fired it up. It had a key held in a memory card type thing. I wanted the video toaster so bad! I was like 13-ish with aspirations of doing computer animation. I owned this on VHS Beyond the Minds Eye and accredit it for my journey into computers, graphic design and even programming. Although I never did get that video toaster, however I do own blender and dink around from time to time.

    I had Brilliance back then too, somehow I find it easier to use, than DPaint. Not sure why. Unfortunately I don’t have Amiga anymore, but at least I have unforgettable memories from that era. Oh, now I got something in my eye, sorry.

    I don't know where we got it back then, but I fondly remember the Lost Ark on our Amiga 500.

    I never could figure out how HAM mode was supposed to work. Whenever I tried it colours bled everywhere and just made a mess.
