Brush Types

See Brush Type.

Available brush types are listed here, together with links to the Essentials library brushes using them.

Add/Subtract Brushes

These brush types generally push vertices outwards and inwards.

Рисування – Draw

Brushes: Рисування – Draw

The standard brush for pushing vertices inwards and outwards from the surface direction.

Гостре Рисування – Draw Sharp

Brushes: Гостре Рисування – Draw Sharp

Same as Draw but with a much sharper Falloff. Useful for creating creases and sharp angles.

Глина – Clay

Brushes: Глина – Clay

Similar to the Draw brush but with a flattening effect and subtle smoothing. Useful for polishing and building volumes.

Смужки Глини – Clay Strips

Brushes: Смужки Глини – Clay Strips

The same as the Clay brush, but more aggressive with a square falloff. A common standard for building rough volumes.

Layer – Шар

Brushes: Layer – Шар

Draw with a fixed height. Useful for adding flat layers to a surface.

Надуття – Inflate

Brushes: Inflate/Deflate

Moves the mesh in multiple direction. Useful for inflating or shrinking surfaces and volumes.

Кулька – Blob

Brushes: Кулька – Blob

Magnifies the mesh as you draw. Useful for an additional inflation effect on the stroke.

Crease – Складка

Brushes: Crease – Складка

Same as Blob but with a pinching effect. Useful for creating and polishing sharp creases.

Contrast Brushes

Recognizable by their red icon and cursor. These brushes generally flatten or heighten the contrast of the surface.

Smooth – Згладження

Brushes: Smooth – Згладження

Smooths out irregularities in the surface and shrinks volumes by averaging the vertices positions. An essential brush that is frequently used.

Flatten – Сплощення

Brushes: Flatten/Contrast

Pushes vertices to an average height to create a flat plateau.

Fill – Заповнення

Brushes: Fill – Заповнення

Pushes surfaces outwards. Useful for filling in holes and crevices.

Шкрябання – Scrape

Brushes: Scrape/Fill

Pushes surfaces inwards. This is the most common brush for flattening meshes.

Multi-plane Scrape

Brushes: Scrape Multiplane

Scrapes the mesh with two angled planes at the same time, producing a sharp edge between them.

Transform Brushes

Recognizable by their yellow icon and cursor. These brushes generally move, pinch and magnify the mesh.

Pinch – Прищемлення

Brushes: Pinch/Magnify

Pulls vertices towards the center of the brush. Useful for polishing angles and creases.

Grab – Захоп

Brushes: Grab – Захоп

Moves vertices along with the mouse. An essential brush for building shapes and adjusting proportions.

Еластична Деформа – Elastic Deform

Brushes: Еластична Деформа – Elastic Deform

Used to simulate realistic deformations such as grabbing or twisting of Elastic objects.

Зміїний Гак – Snake Hook

Brushes: Зміїний Гак – Snake Hook

Pulls vertices along with the stroke to create long, snake-like forms.

Палюх – Thumb

Brushes: Палюх – Thumb

Same as Grab but moves vertices along the surface direction. Useful for preserving specific surfaces.

Pose – Поза

Brushes: Pose – Поза

Simulating an armature-like deformations. Useful for quick posing and transformations.

Підштовх – Nudge

Brushes: Підштовх – Nudge

Similar as Thumb but dynamically picks up vertices like the Snake Hook. Useful for nudging something along the mesh surface.

Rotate – Оберт

Brushes: Twist – Кручення

Rotates vertices within the brush in the direction mouse.

Розслаблення Ковзанням – Slide Relax

Brushes: Relax Slide

Slides the topology of the mesh in the direction of the stroke while preserving the geometrical shape of the mesh. Also useful for redistributing topology where it is needed.

Boundary – Рубіж

Brushes: Boundary – Рубіж

Transform mesh boundaries specifically with various deformations.

Utility Brushes

No clear color assignment. These brushes are general purpose brushes or specific.

Тканина

Brushes: Тканина

Simulates cloth to create folds and draping, which can be sculpted further.

Simplify – Спрощення

Brushes: Щільність – Density

Cleans up geometry by collapsing short edges.

Mask – Маска

Brushes: Mask – Маска

Paints a selection on parts of the mesh to be unaffected by other brushes.

Draw Face Sets

Brushes: Draw Face Sets

Paint new or extend existing face sets.

Multires Displacement Eraser

Brushes: Erase Multires Displacement

Remove displacement information on a Multiresolution modifier.

Multires Displacement Smear

Brushes: Smear Multires Displacement

Smear displacement information on a Multiresolution modifier.

Painting Brushes

Recognizable by their green icon. These brushes are used for painting color attributes within sculpt mode.

Paint – Малювання

Brushes: Paint – Малювання

Paint on the vertices of your mesh via color attributes.

Розмазання – Smear

Brushes: Розмазання – Smear

Smears the vertex colors via color attributes.
