Groom brushes

To complement the FiberMesh feature, there is a series of Groom brushes. These brushes are dedicated to the sculpting of FiberMesh objects. These brushes are derived from traditional sculpting brushes and have their behavior optimized to avoid unexpected results when working with Fibers.

Groom brushes

Below is a list of some new Groom brushes but ZBrush includes many more of them.
Note about the Groom Brushes: Some brushes such as Groom Spike work best by using a large Draw size brush and first accumulating fiber within the brush before moving it in the desired direction. This allows you to more readily groom the fibers in the desired direction.
