      Yet another try.
      layered_watercolor.jpg

      This time I applied the effect to a completely blurred version, and put it beneath the regular version. I made another copy of the regular version, and started to alter the curves of the bottom two layers, making them yellowish. I then used layer masks to hide all layers, and revealed them using Photoshop's wetmedia brushes and this brush collection:
      http://fbrushes.com/2008/11/05/watercolor-1-brushes-pack/

      Here's how my layers look:
      layers.jpg

      A tip: When you use the brushes I linked to, instead of dragging the brush, just apply it in spots. If the brush borders become too distracting in certain parts, blur those parts. Remember that all this work is done in the layer Mask, not the layer itself.

          nice job u did. I've done some recent experiences and soon will share them 😉 . but in short :u can have more/less lost-fond edges (depending on suject) in your render.. and also color variations tahat makes yr job more like watercolor job.

                Thanks MALAISE ! 😄 .we hada good discussion here and learned alot from each other, and now after a while the refined simplified trick is ready. I've tried to do the "smart" part by human, so that the Photoshop does it's "fool"ish job, excellent!!!!.
                also I've tested the trick over several 3dwh models, all were acceptable and so guess it will rock!!!

                          Apparently not much. Adobe licensed it I know but I havent seen anything yet.
                          The guy behind Moxi (Nelson Chu) has been seen in a Microsoft video featuring "project Gustav", a painting application in development.
                          The images show tools like oilpaint so I don't know if there will be any watercolour tool in it. We can just hope...

                          Still it looks cool.

                            After some more Googling I found that it has gotten a real name and site: http://www.microsoftdigitalart.com/index.html
                            Doesn't appear to have watercolour though... 😞

                              I guess there's no chance of it becoming an iPad app. 😉
