Exploring custom stroke options
All brushes must use some type of method for applying their effect to the sculpture surface. This method of application is known as the Stroke. Most of the default brushes in Blender use the same basic type of stroke, called Space. Technically, there is no way for the computer to smoothly create brush strokes; we can only create the illusion of smooth brush strokes.
When we use the Space option for our Stroke Method setting, the shape of the brush will be repeatedly stamped onto the sculpture while we draw across its surface. How often this stamping occurs is determined by the Spacing setting of the brush stroke. In Blender, the amount of spacing is measured as a percentage of the brush radius. If we use a high spacing value such as 500%, then the stamps will be repeated infrequently. If we use a very low spacing, such as 10%, then the stamps will be repeated very frequently.
In the following diagram, we can see several lines drawn from left to...
