New Custom Brushstroke Styles

The first major update is coming to the Brushstroke Tools extension! There are a few small additions to the procedural parameters that are available to customize the look of the brushstrokes. But the main focus has been making the extension ready to create custom brush styles. This comes along with a more extensive overview of the available brush styles and filtering by category and type.

As a special treat for our Blender Studio subscribers we created 2 additional brush style packs that can be downloaded here and easily installed from the user preferences:

Blender File - 8.7 MB - CC-BYbrushstroke_tools-ink_brushes.zip

 Download File

Blender File - 14.1 MB - CC-BYbrushstroke_tools-watercolor_brushes.zip

To demo these new packs, Vivien created this beautiful artwork of a robin showcasing the style you can achieve with these new brush styles.

For those that want to create their own custom brush styles we extended the documentation with a detailed guide on doing exactly that on studio.blender.org/tools.
