90 Degree Paint Brush
The bristles of an angled sash brush (sometimes called a 'cutting brush') are cut at a slant, making it easier to paint clean lines. Use it for anything with grooves, like cabinets, furniture,.

Vintage Large 4' Allied Brass 514 Paint Brush. Vintage paint brush Bestt Stainer #144 Handle made in. When you use it as a brush, it could've been upside-down, pointing in a diagonal, etc. The computer doesn't know what direction it points to, so it assumes it points to the right. This is a standard practice with similar algorithms. The fix is easy: go to the first tab and increase Brush Rotation by 90 degrees. It should point to the right when. We have painters brushes for all your requirements. It's essential that you choose the right brush for the right paint. A natural or pure bristle is ideal for working with solvent-based paint and wood care. Mixed filaments are perfect for all types of paint and wood care. While synthetic filaments are ideal with water-based paint and wood care.
The Paint tool simulates brush strokes via various behavior and settings to give the feeling of painting onto the 3D mesh.
The Contextual Toolbar will display the following shortcuts (see their explanation in next sections) :
- Size
- Flow
- Stroke Opacity
- Spacing
Additional shortcuts are available which are common across some other tools :
- Symmetry
At the top of the Properties window are the brush and material previews. They can be used to quickly glance at how the current tool is setup.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
The brush preview displays how the brush will behave based on the brush parameters. It is possible to click in the preview to draw a custom stroke. | |
Material Preview | The material preview shows the properties of the material currently used to paint. It is possible to click in the preview to rotate the lighting and see better how the material will behave before painting. |
The Brush parameters are what defines the look and feel of the brush stroke when performed on the 3D mesh.
Some parameters may be controlled by Pen Pressure when using a graphic tablet. This information can also be saved in presets.
Click on the dedicated button to enable or disable the pressure :
90 Degree Angle Paint Brush
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Size | Controls how big the stamps inside a brush stroke will be. The brush size is relative can changed depending of the relative space is defined in (see the Alignment Size Space parameter below). This parameter can be controlled by Pen Pressure. |
| Flow | Intensity or opacity of the individual stamps inside the brush stroke. This parameter can be controlled by Pen Pressure. |
| Stroke Opacity | Maximum global opacity of a brush stroke. Contrary to the Flow parameter, the Stroke Opacity cannot be controlled via Pen Pressure because it is applied at the end of the stroke drawing process. Difference between Flow and Stroke Opacity :
It is possible to continue a previous stroke like in the animation above by pressing the shortcut 'A'. |
| Spacing | Distance between the individuals stamps of a brush stroke. Small values allow to create continuous lines but are more expansive to compute as they draw much more stamps in total. High values allow to create gap between the stamp which may be more suited for specific patterns (like Nails on wood). |
| Angle | Orientation of the stamps inside the brush stroke. Useful to rotate the Alpha if not properly aligned. Can be combined with the Follow Path. |
| Follow Path | Orients the stamps inside the brush stroke to follow the painting direction. To compute the stroke direction Substance Painter compares the previous stamp with the current one, which is why when Follow Path is enabled a single click to paint will not produce any results. At least a minimum of two stamps are required to paint a brush stroke with this feature enabled. |
| Size Jitter | Apply a random size value per stamp inside the brush stroke. A value of 0 means no randomness, a value of 1 means full randomness. |
| Flow Jitter | Apply a random flow value per stamp inside the brush stroke. A value of 0 means no randomness, a value of 1 means full randomness. |
| Angle Jitter | Apply a random additional rotation angle per stamp inside the brush stroke. A value of 0 means no randomness, a value of 1 means full randomness. |
| Position Jitter | Apply a random position offset per stamp inside the brush stroke. A value of 0 means no randomness, a value of 1 means full randomness. |
| Alignment | Determines how the stamps inside the brush stroke will be projected / oriented on the surface of the 3D mesh. The following values are available :
|
| Backface Culling | Allows to ignore surfaces on the 3D mesh that are not aligned with the stamp. To compute which parts of the 3D mesh should be ignored, the painting engine looks at the normal at the surface of the 3D mesh and compares its angle against the value defined. |
| Size Space | Controls in which relative space the brush size is computed. Possible values are :
|
The Alpha is the grayscale mask that is applied over each stamp inside the brush stroke. It can be a Substance file or a bitmap.
If a Substance graph has a parameter 'hardness' (identifier) exposed, it can be controlled with the Hardness keyboard shortcut.
The Physics properties allow to control the particles that are projected when painting.
Angled Paint Brush
By default the Physics properties are not available but can be enabled by two means :
- By switching the tool to 'Physical' in the Toolbar (or via the keyboard shortcut).
- By clicking on a Particle brush preset in the Shelf.
The Stencil is an additional grayscale mask for the brush stroke. Contrary to the alpha which is applied for each individual stamps, the Stencil is a global mask applied from the viewport point of view.
It is possible to reset the Stencil transformation by pressing the S key and then clicking on the 'Reset' button at the top right of the viewport :
| Mode | Viewport |
|---|---|
| No resource loaded | When no resource is loaded, the stencil has no effect. It is possible to disable temporarily the Stencil mask without removing the resource by pressing and maintaining the keyboard shortcut 'N'. |
| Move Stencil | Moving the Stencil can be done by pressing the S key and click and dragging with the Middle Mouse button. |
| Rotate Stencil | Rotating the Stencil can be done by pressing the S key and click and dragging with the Left Mouse button. Additionally, pressing the Shift key allows to snap the rotation every 90 degrees. |
| Resize Stencil | Resizing the Stencil can be done by pressing the S key and click and dragging with the Right Mouse button. |
The tiling mode setting controls how the Stencil mask is repeated over the viewport (this setting affects the texturing as well) :
| Tiling Mode | Description |
|---|---|
| No Tiling (default) | |
Horizontal Tiling | Repeat the Stencil mask only on the horizontal axis. |
Vertical Tiling | Repeat the Stencil mask only on the vertical axis. |
H and V Tiling | Repeat the Stencil mask on both the horizontal and vertical axis. |
A Material is composed of multiple channels where each retain specific properties. The list of channels is dependent of those defined in Texture Set Settings window.
The Material mode button is an easy way to load a Substance files or a preset to quickly assign and edit multiple channels at once.
Adjustable Angle Paint Roller
Clicking on a channel button will select or deselect it. When deselected the channel property cannot be modified and won't be used during the painting process.
