Just chiming in to say I've been messing about in Brilliance lately on my A4000, and it's a great application for AGA and ECS modes. No good at all for RTG stuff, of course, but that's what I have the free TV Paint for. Brilliance is really fast -- way faster than the later versions of DPaint. It's an excellent tool for bitmapped animations and images. I bought my copy of Brilliance from famous OpalPaint artist Asha Develder back in the early '90s and had the license switched over to me. She couldn't get into Brilliance, so it's not for everyone. I have a Brilliance promotional poster with Jim Sachs' Amiga lagoon image hanging in my computer room for inspiration.
I wish that programs like DPaint and Brilliance could be made freely distributable by their respective copyright holders, who so far as I know aren't making money on this stuff anymore. The TVPaint folks have the right idea by letting their old Amiga program be circulated for free.
Good luck finding your copy! I'd pounce on the eBay auction.
