This course is designed for the absolute beginner, meaning no previous experience with Toon Boom is required. It is also possible to use textures when drawing with the Pencil tool.In this Learning Toon Boom Harmony Essentials training course, expert author Tony Ross will teach you about the tools and techniques available in this powerful animation software. In the Camera or Drawing view, start drawing to test your brush settings.If you want the spacing between each instance of the brush tip to be random, set the Random Spacing setting to any value above 0 %.If you want the angle of your brush tip to be random each time the tip is printed on your canvas, set the Random Angle setting to any value above 0 °.

If you want the size of your brush tip to vary each time it's printed on your canvas, set the Random Size setting to any value above 0 %.If this setting is too high, your strokes will look like the brush tip has been stamped repeatedly over your canvas instead of dragged on it. If this setting is too low, your brush strokes might feel too thick and opaque. The default setting is 7%, which produces a relatively realistic brush stroke-like result. Use the Spacing slider to set how much distance you must drag your brush before Harmony prints the brush tip onto your canvas, relative to your brush's size.If you set it to 0 %, the brush will only be opaque in its center, and will gradually become transparent towards its edges. If you set it to 100 %, the brush will be completely solid. Use the Hardness slider to set how much of the outer part of your brush tip should fade to transparency.
