I've tried searching for how to make a custom smudge tool, and mixing brush for that matter.
I've made some drawings, turned them into brushes, then I customize the settings of that brush, save and that's it, it becomes a new brush.
But I don't know how I turn that first brush preset into a smudge tool or mixing brush, either it saves as a brush exclusively or when I try to use the preset as smudge tool, it adds a bit of the current color.
How I make a custom smudge and mixing brush presets?
That's simply not how it works. Aside from the specifics of dedicated mixer brushes, most tools simply don#t have the routines to deal with any of this and will merely use the brush shape as a stamp, not the actual color info in the brush.
I took a dose of patience and looked up on photoshop, and there is the toolbar on the upside of it, I found it and the options, "fingerpainting" was on, that's why it was applying color or the smudge. I've also seen there was a blending mode, it was on luminosity, i've set it to normal, I changed the resistance too and now it's "merely [using] the brush shape as a stamp", that smudges the colors.
Hi, indeed, one needs many eyes everywhere to operate photoshop to the max. glad that you are all set. Thank you for sharing the answers in case other struggle for the same issue!
