4 Powerful Smudge Brushes You'll Ever Need!

[@nuclear_warrior]

Thanks Mathias, all the brushes are great. For brush #2 (Bushy Fader), I wasn't able to get the same effect as you without enabling scattering. Is this correct?

[@MathiasZamecki]

No scattering

[@emiliarittenbach4166]

the way my jaw dropped at the square pusher being used on that gun....so brilliant

[@MathiasZamecki]

thanks :)

[@giabaolevu1055]

thank you, this must be printed in every photoshop painting guide book, very useful.

[@MathiasZamecki]

hah cheers!

Hi, I've been watching digital painting tutorials for the last 10 years (not to learn but I love watching everyone's style) and I never ever seen anyone showing brush settings. This is real meaning of teaching and not just showing off. Thanks a lot mate for this one. You got my like as well as subscription too. Keep it up :)

[@MathiasZamecki]

Thanks appreciate it :)

I never use smudge tool much, but I think this video has just made me realise how much you can do with the tool. Thank you for the awesome tips!

[@janarose8179]

The first brush is soooo useful for me Thank you very much !!

[@MathiasZamecki]

amazing! its not my favourite but its definitely useful in some cases :D

[@leahproductions6552]

This is really cool i honestly never thought about using the smudge tool on photoshop! I’m def gonna give this a try

[@MathiasZamecki]

Its my second favorite tool after brushes 😂

[@CultMechanicus]

Super useful. Thank you for the knowledge.

Thank you so much Mathias for the tutorial, I wish that it was a little slower in pace! God bless you!

[@jbway86]

Wow. This was extremely helpful. I've been using Procreate for over a year and finally started testing out photoshop. I got so frustrated with it (learning tools, shortcuts and just work flow in general). I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to use the smudge tool in photoshop with brushes similar to Procreate. Not only I learned how to create custom brushes but also how to change the default smudge brush. Now I can finish my painting. Thank you.

[@MathiasZamecki]

Awesome Glad you find it useful 🥰

[@laserfloyd]

Thanks for this. I was looking for some good alternate smudge brushes on a few sites and happened upon this. I'll create my own from now on. :)

[@MathiasZamecki]

Hi, Mathias. New subscriber here. Thanks for the really resourceful tutorials, but I hope you post longer timelapse videos as well. I just discovered you though the Ghibli Brush tutorial, and I don't regret going through your videos one bit. You're God-send. As I stated earlier in one of your tutorials, I highly prefer Clip Studio Paint, but these tips are applicable in almost every art software. Thanks a bunch!

[@MathiasZamecki]

This is a really nice video. Concise very informative and very helpful. That's all the ways I can ever think of using the smudge tool. V useful in concept ing and rendering stuff out. Came looking for the third brush. Last one was the most interesting. Already was using first one after hearing its use from jama. Although was only using the first one for black white shapes not for pictures, but hey that's a nice idea too

Great glad you like it 🙏

Yeah had a plan to do that then covid hit and I didn't have motivation to do more. But I will try to do more soon

[@baronofbubbles5798]

Thank you so much for sharing this. Is a smudge tool the same as a mixer brush?

[@MathiasZamecki]

You can sample part of the painting with mixer brush. Smudge tool well... just smudge ;)

Can this work as good in procreate / do you also use Procreate or only Photoshop?

[@MathiasZamecki]

Yes it works in procreate and clip studio paint. I tested and it works (kind of) check out samples on my gumroad

[@eddyalvaross2195]

I'd like to know your Photoshop version, PC specs(CPU and GPU), and drawing tablet. This just because I noticed Photoshop runs so smoothly when you work with it.

[@MathiasZamecki]

if you turn off "sample all layers" it should run smooth. if you want tu smudge everything flat layers using ctrl+alt+shift+E :)

[@eddyalvaross2195]
