John wastes paper

DRAWING TOOL FETISH DEPT:  Browsing the TVPaint user forum I ran across an impressive  pencil brush posted by CartoonMonkey (you can download it  here ). It does a pretty good job of mimicking a real world soft lead pencil. It takes good advantage of the tilt sensitivity of your tablet's pen. Hold it straight up and you get a thin line. Then, the further you lean it on its side, the wider the stroke it makes. And of course, it's pressure sensitive so you can go from a very light gray to a very dark shade. Here's a few scribbles I made while testing it out.
