Paint FX Brush Creation

Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world

Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Guess whooooo?! user added image

I've been sitting here lulling thru the High End 3D site (I haven't defected... just looking for info anywhere I can find it... ) and I got to thinking. How on earth do you create a Paint FX brush? I finally figured out how to paint on text using PFX and now, I'm curious about making my own. Is it easier than MEL scripting? Complicating? Your thoughts, please. user added image

I've thought about doing this as well, there's a section in the Painting Manual that goes through the steps to creating your own brushes. Manily need an image file to begin with....give her a good read....me lazy and it will be a while before I get into trying it user added image

Red bellows of flame have blackened my stones
Convulsing my frame and cracking my bones
Hell's dragons of steel who roar in their chains
Crawl into my caves to suck out my veins.....
