Creating Texture Brushes
To create your own texture brush, you must prepare your texture file in a third-party software, such as Adobe Photoshop. If your image has transparency in it, it will be supported. The texture file must be either a PSD or TGA file.
It is recommended that you maintain your texture resolution between 100 x 100 pixels and 400 x 400 pixels.
To create your own texture brush:
1. | In the Tools toolbar, select the Brush tool or press [Alt] + [B]. |
2. | In the Tool Properties view, click the New Brush button to add a new brush to your list. |
In the Texture section, select the Enable Texture option.
3. | Click the Texture File button and browse for your bitmap texture file. |
The image colour will not be used, only the pattern in it.
4. | In the Camera view, draw some lines and adjust the parameters to fit the style you are looking for. Note: your pen list will be automatically saved. |
