Overview
********
There are a number of brushes for sculpt mode bundled in the *Essentials* asset library.
This is an overview of all of them, categorized by their general functions.
Add/Subtract Brushes
====================
.. figure:: /images/sculpt-paint_sculpting_brushes_overview-add-substract.png
:align: right
:width: 250
These brushes generally push vertices outwards and inwards.
:doc:`draw`
The standard brush for pushing vertices inwards and outwards from the surface direction.
:doc:`draw_sharp`
Same as *Draw* but with a much sharper :doc:`Falloff </sculpt_paint/brush/falloff>`.
Useful for creating creases and sharp angles.
:doc:`clay`
Similar to the *Draw* brush but with a flattening effect and subtle smoothing.
Useful for polishing and building volumes.
:doc:`clay_strips`
The same as the *Clay* brush, but more aggressive with a square falloff.
A common standard for building rough volumes.
:doc:`layer`
Draw with a fixed height. Useful for adding flat layers to a surface.
:doc:`inflate`
Moves the mesh in multiple direction. Useful for inflating or shrinking surfaces and volumes.
:doc:`blob`
Magnifies the mesh as you draw. Useful for an additional inflation effect on the stroke.
:doc:`crease`
Same as *Blob* but with a pinching effect. Useful for creating and polishing sharp creases.
Contrast Brushes
================
.. figure:: /images/sculpt-paint_sculpting_brushes_overview-contrast.png
:align: right
:width: 250
Recognizable by their red icon and cursor.
These brushes generally flatten or heighten the contrast of the surface.
:doc:`smooth`
Smooths out irregularities in the surface and shrinks volumes by averaging the vertices positions.
An essential brush that is frequently used.
:doc:`flatten`
Pushes vertices to an average height to create a flat plateau.
:doc:`fill`
Pushes surfaces outwards. Useful for filling in holes and crevices.
:doc:`scrape`
Pushes surfaces inwards. This is the most common brush for flattening meshes.
:doc:`multiplane_scrape`
Scrapes the mesh with two angled planes at the same time, producing a sharp edge between them.
Transform Brushes
=================
.. figure:: /images/sculpt-paint_sculpting_brushes_overview-transform.png
:align: right
:width: 250
Recognizable by their yellow icon and cursor.
These brushes generally move, pinch and magnify the mesh.
:doc:`pinch`
Pulls vertices towards the center of the brush. Useful for polishing angles and creases.
:doc:`grab`
Moves vertices along with the mouse. An essential brush for building shapes and adjusting proportions.
:doc:`elastic_deform`
Used to simulate realistic deformations such as grabbing or twisting of :term:`Elastic` objects.
:doc:`snake_hook`
Pulls vertices along with the stroke to create long, snake-like forms.
:doc:`thumb`
Same as *Grab* but moves vertices along the surface direction. Useful for preserving specific surfaces.
:doc:`pose`
Simulating an armature-like deformations. Useful for quick posing and transformations.
:doc:`nudge`
Similar as *Thumb* but dynamically picks up vertices like the *Snake Hook*.
Useful for nudging something along the mesh surface.
:doc:`twist`
Rotates vertices within the brush in the direction mouse.
:doc:`slide_relax`
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.
:doc:`boundary`
Transform mesh boundaries specifically with various deformations.
Utility Brushes
===============
.. figure:: /images/sculpt-paint_sculpting_brushes_overview-utilities.png
:align: right
:width: 250
No clear color assignment.
These brushes are general purpose brushes or specific.
:doc:`cloth`
Simulates cloth to create folds and draping, which can be sculpted further.
:doc:`density`
Cleans up geometry by collapsing short edges.
:doc:`mask`
Paints a selection on parts of the mesh to be unaffected by other brushes.
:doc:`draw_facesets`
Paint new or extend existing face sets.
:doc:`multires_displacement_eraser`
Remove displacement information on a Multiresolution modifier.
:doc:`multires_displacement_smear`
Smear displacement information on a Multiresolution modifier.
Painting Brushes
================
.. figure:: /images/sculpt-paint_sculpting_brushes_overview-paint.png
:align: right
:width: 250
Recognizable by their green icon.
These brushes are used for painting color attributes within sculpt mode.
:doc:`paint`
Paint on the vertices of your mesh via color attributes.
:doc:`smear`
Smears the vertex colors via color attributes.
