The Vertex Color Brush paints color onto the vertices (corners) of brushes. The color blends smoothly across each face between its corners, so you can darken the base of a wall, add grime to a corner, or tint part of a surface without a new material.
Using it
- Select the brushes to paint.
- Pick Vertex Color Brush and choose a Color.
- Click and drag over the surfaces. The brush's Radius and Strength decide how far and how strongly it paints.
- Shift+X picks up the color of the vertex nearest the brush.
