Brush "live" randomization / variation
-
@Subpath I downloaded Alchemy but it's so old that it doesn't work on my Mac.
-
Another way would be to have just one brush contour but don't stretch it — instead repeat it but randomize the nodes.
Maybe this approach would be faster for "live" drawing. -

that, sad to hear, because its a nice little Tool
as i wrote works here on Win 10 without any Problem
despite that it is from 2010i will create a video to show some Tools of it
but this will take yet some time -
you could try "Webchemy" its a online drawing tool
in the style of Alchemy, but have much fewer tools.
But a Pull Brush ( you cant define your own Brushes )
The Results can be saved as .SVG an PNG.Here the Link

@Subpath Ouch… Webchemy is rough…

I found temporary workaround also in the Stroke Width panel's menu - there is "Randomize profile" option. Still it's "post production", not "live" and not exactly what I meant:

@Harry If there are some good inspirations on how such a brush should look like, please upload here or send them to me by email.
-
Problem is, that I don't know.
Let's say I'd like to design some abstract pattern. I would take "Live random effect brush tool", and I would experiment and look for some inspiration from great and interesting shapes this kind of brush could produce.

Hi
As a source for inspiration, for modulate Strokes, the painting program
Black Ink came to mind."Black Ink" uses a kind of controller nodes to modulate brushes
to set and control random strokes and has a node system for layers.
Here are some videos
