Mixer Brush as seen in Photoshop


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

do we have a kind of mixer brush as seen in Photoshop?

see for clarification the vid underneath starting at 4.04min. There is a mixer brush in Affinity Photo but not the same as seen in PhotoShop. Aron uses this one to create all kinds of bushes and trees. In the vid on 4.04min you see him capture the shape of the sphere and start painting with it, later on he uses the technique also for more complex shapes like bushes and trees.

Thanks for the Clarification. The lack of information is my fault indeed, sorry for that. 

what you show is indeed more or less what l’m look for but not with a sphere.  Aaron draws a bush like sharp and grab this snap to put in a brush and start painting.

he use an alpha lock so he only paint over the current paint.

on 13:25min he starts with capturing the brush so you can see what I try to achieve.

A sphere is what was used 4 minutes into the video but you can use any pixel selection.

To do the same on Affinity Photo, switch on ‘Protect alpha’ via the control in the Context toolbar.

Use any selection tools (rectangular, ellipse…) to make a selection. Then, click on the brushes studio and click on the icon next to the pin icon and choose new brush from selection.
