If you don't see it at all, try going to "Window" in the menu bar and selecting the option "Tool Property" and you'll see a new subwindow appear with brush settings. Depending on how you setup your manga studio workspace you may see the properties in a different location than me. Open that new brush's properties panel.Duplicate an existing brush: right-click on any brush and and select "Duplicate sub-tool." You'd want to dupe an existing brush if there's one that acts close to what you want, and all you want to do is swap artwork.From scratch: Right-click on any of the brushes and select "Create Custom Sub Tool." Name it and press 'ok'.There are a few ways to make a new brush: Find a submenu ("Effect", "Hatching", etc) that's appropriate for the brush you're trying to make.This "Decoration" subtool is where you will add your new brush. There are, in fact, spray brushes for vegetation and there are other brushes that work as a ribbon such as a lace brush or a musical measure brush. Select that and you should see a ton of available brushes that Manga Studio has built in. In the toolbar there's a button that says "Decoration" - please see the red box on the image below. Make materials out of the rest of your artwork.(Optional) Give your material tags that you can use to search later.Save this new material under the brush subfolder.Check "scale up/down" which should be the option to allow your artwork resize as you draw strokes with your brush.Check " Use for brush tip shape" which will let you use your artwork as, well, a brush shape.With your blossom selected, go to the Edit menu and select "Register Image as Material." You will see a dialog that looks like this: Note: If all of your brush art is on the same transparent layer, you'll either want to separate them onto their own layers or after you magic-want-select the one you want, you can go through and deselect the other images.Ģ.

Select the transparent space around your artwork, so that it makes an inverse selection. Using the rectangle select tool and trying to get as close as you can to the edges is one way. Cut out the blossom. You want to try and get as close as you can to the edges of the artwork. Now that you have your art, the next part is to make them into materials.ġ. Sakura-blossom-brushparts] Making Materials Each blossom is also on a separate layer so they can be easily isolated. Below, the green background is on a separate layer. Some tips for the brush artwork: when making the original art, make the drawings bigger than you'll need to avoid any kind of pixelation or blurring problems that you might encounter when it's drawn by the custom brush. Also, when you make your artwork, make sure you do them on a separate layer with a transparent background. Sprayed artfully, they'll appear as if the wind is blowing them along. I wanted to get the blossoms from different angles, because the brush ultimately just sprays them with varied size and angle. I went to google images and studied a bunch of cherry blossom images and I began to sketch them. The first step was to create the artwork for the sakura blossoms. It'll help me improve for next time as well. If you are confused, please tell me in the comments and I can try and clarify the steps.
