Tilt Brush v16: featuring new volumetric brushes, updated sound effects, and more!

We have an exciting new Tilt Brush update out today!

New Brushes:
We’ve added 12 new brushes that expand your capabilities to create different textures and volumes.
One of our favorite new brushes, Hull Brush, is a new paradigm for volumetric modeling. With this new brush, you can create anything from a natural landscape to more lifelike characters.

Beginner vs. Advanced Mode:
As we keep expanding our Toolkit, we want to ensure that Tilt Brush is accessible to all experience levels. First time users of Tilt Brush will now start in Beginner Mode, which includes only the core feature set. When you open Tilt Brush after your first time, you will then be prompted to try all of the Tilt Brush Tools in the Advanced Mode. It is easy to switch between modes at any time with a quick press on the Mode Button.

New Sound FX:
We launched an updated set of sound effects that integrate with your workflow. We have listened to your feedback and our revamped audio library retains Tilt Brush’s audio identity while creating a more pleasant creative environment.

Additional Tools:
For our advanced users, we have added some additional tools to increase your productivity:

• New Pin Tool: With the new Pin Tool, you can lock objects in place so that they are unselectable. This tool allows you to quickly pin or unpin many elements in a row. Just select the Pin Tool button in either the Quick Tools Panel or the Labs Panel and pin away.
• New selection options: We have added new two selection features, the Select All Tool and Invert Selection Tool. These allow you to select all items in a sketch as well as invert selections that you have made. Long press on the Selection Tool to access these features.
• Recall Mirror tool: If you have ever lost your Mirror in a busy scene or teleported away from it in your sketch, you can use the Recall Mirror Tool by long pressing on the Mirror Tool. This will teleport it right next to you.
• Rapid undo/redo: If you want to undo a bunch of brush actions you can press and hold the undo controller button until the scene has reverted to the version you want. The same is now possible for redo.

We’d love to see the art that you create with these new brushes and features! Share your projects using the #TiltBrush hashtag, and we’ll highlight our favorites from @TiltBrush and @GoogleARVR.

Happy painting!
