Пензлі – Brushes

This is a list of all provided „Essentials“ brush assets that come with Blender. These are based on various Brush Types which are mentioned for each brush..

Add/Subtract Brushes

These brushes generally push vertices outwards and inwards and are the most customizable to achieve a wide variety of effects. They typically don’t use a color in their thumbnail.

Brush Type: Зміїний Гак – Snake Hook

Similar to Elastic Grab but rotates affected geometry based on the stroke direction.

Зміїний Гак – Snake Hook
Shortcut: K

Pulls vertices along with the stroke to create long, snake-like forms. Geometry is rotated and magnified to allow continuous pulling. Much more useful while having Dyntopo enabled.

Виштовх – Pull

Brush Type: Зміїний Гак – Snake Hook

Iteratively picks up and lets go of geometry like the Snake Hook, but much softer. Useful for subtle small scale deforming over longer strokes.

Палюх – Thumb

Brush Type: Палюх – Thumb

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

Pose – Поза

Brush Type: Pose – Поза

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

Підштовх – Nudge

Brush Type: Підштовх – Nudge

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

Twist – Кручення

Brush Type: Rotate – Оберт

Rotates vertices within the brush in the direction mouse.

Relax Slide

Brush Type: Relax Slide

Slides the topology of the mesh in the direction of the stroke while preserving the geometrical shape of the mesh. Alternatively smooths the mesh on „Shift“. Also useful for redistributing topology where it is needed.

Relax Pinch

Brush Type: Relax Slide

Similar to the Relax Slide brush but pinches/relaxes geometry instead.

Boundary – Рубіж

Brush Type: Boundary – Рубіж

Transform specifically mesh boundaries with various deformations.

Utility Brushes

../../../_images/sculpt-paint_sculpting_brushes_overview-utilities.png

Sharpen – Гостріння

Brush Type: Розмазання – Smear

Pinches the colors inwards to create sharp edges or points.

Simulation Brushes

These brushes are similar to regular brushes but with an additional cloth simulation applied. These are ideally used on a relatively low resolution, since the mesh density defines the size of cloth dynamics.
