The brush engine

Clip Studio Paint makes it easy to create your own tools with its powerful—but simple-to-use—brush engine. There are lots of options in the brush engine, such as brush size, shape, and how it’s corrected. But once you learn what each one does, it’s easy to make the best tools for your own needs. Let’s get started right away by looking at the brush options and learning what each one does.

Accessing the brush options

To access the options to create and change brushes, click on one of the brush tools. In this example, we’ll be looking at G-pen, which is a sub tool under the Pen tool. Once you have chosen a brush tool as your currently active tool, locate the Tool Property palette. In the lower right-hand corner is an icon that looks like a wrench. Click on the wrench icon, which is displayed in the following screenshot, to open the Sub Tool Detail palette.
