Animated Texture Brush

Animated Texture Brush Add-on improve Blender’s Texture/Vertex Paint, and Sculpting modes by adding random frame cycling for brushes with an image sequence textures. It supports two main modes:

• Continuous: frames cycles in real time while painting, creating a smooth animated effect.
• Per Stroke: frames cycles once at the start of each stroke for better control.

Benefits:

• Natural Variation: break the repetitive look of the default brushes by introducing subtle changes randomly.
• Perfect for Hand-Painted Textures, especially useful for organic surfaces like dirt, foliage, rocks, or stylized textures.

Requirements:

• A brush with an image sequence texture set as Texture or Mask Texture (4+ frames recommended for best effect).
• Brush texture or brush mask texture can be used.
• The add-on must be enabled in Blender Preferences.

How to Add Sequence Texture to a Brush:

1. Enable the add-on in Blender Preferences → Add-ons.
2. Select an Object → switch to Texture Paint mode.
3. In the Properties Tab → Texture → Brush/Brush Mask → New → Open.
4. Locate your image sequence → Select All → Open Image.
5. In the Properties Tab → Tool → Texture/Texture Mask → Select the Created Texture.

To make things easier I made a Free Brushpack with some animated brushes included:

Enjoy Painting!!!
