Andybak's Experimental Open Brush Forks

Note - I'm maintaining each feature as a separate build as some are probably more viable to merge into the official Open Brush than others (or at least - will be viable sooner).

However - if you want the kitchen sink version with everything included you can download an integration build here: https://github.com/IxxyXR/open-brush/actions/runs/931031877#artifacts

That contains all the features mentioned below. In some cases they might intefere with each other to some degree but I'll fix those issues as soon as I spot them.

On to the features.

This is basically my other project Polyhydra ( https://andybak.net/polyhydra ) smushed together with Tilt Brush. Create a wide range of geometric forms and use them as the basis for complex mirroring of your brush strokes.

Create Tilt Brush sketches by sending simple commands from a web browser. Works with any language that can send http requests - including via simple HTML forms. You can even use it without any programming at all by just typing urls into the browser address bar.

It doesn't even need VR. You can create 3D works of art on a desktop machine and export the results without ever putting on a headset.

Contains some cool example scripts showing what's possible.

A simple yet powerful feature. Adds a small random change to hue, saturation or value every time you paint a stroke. Great for getting a more varied, natural look when you build up forms from lots of brush strokes.

Selecting and duplicating brush strokes currently doesn't support snapping. This changes that. It also allows snapping to angles other than 90 degrees.

And an entirely new feature is snapping to a grid so you can create regularly spaced duplicates of any selected brush strokes.
