Making a fabric trim brush
Let's face it. Most of us don't fancy spending our drawing time rendering patterns on cloth by hand, especially for panel after panel of a comic story! That's where Manga Studio's brushes and materials come in handy.
The brush settings from this recipe can be used for many other applications. Simply change the material and the brush will be changed! Try drawing a long, thin strip of wood grain instead of a fabric pattern, for example. The possibilities are endless.
Getting ready
The most important part of making one of these brushes is planning. Search for reference photos and decide what look you want to achieve. Look at decorative fashion trims and fabrics, and study how the pattern is put together before sitting down to make the brush. This will make it much easier to put together!
For this recipe, we'll be making a trim with a southwestern motif.
