Web
The crisp spider-web look - the Web connection style, a port of Harmony's web brush.
What it does
The Web style is the same connecting idea, tuned for clean strands: sparser, slightly stronger, full-length lines that aren't pulled in from the points. Instead of soft shading you get distinct threads stretched between your marks - like a cobweb catching your gesture. (Note the shared name: Web is both the connecting brush in the Brush combo and this connection style chosen inside it - this page is about the style.)
How to use
- Pick the connecting Web brush (1), then choose the Web style in Brush settings (the Web tab, press c).
- Move across marks you've already made to sling fresh strands toward them.
- Lower Density for a delicate web; raise Reach to span wider gaps.
Try this
Dot a few points around the canvas, then draw a connecting stroke through
the middle - the strands snap out to your scattered points like pinned
thread. Switch the line shape to Curve for curved
strands instead of straight ones.
