Out of curiosity was it just Icosa Gallery you didn't know about? Or you didn't know about Open Brush at all?

We're very close to releasing proper integration with @icosa.gallery - so you'll have a web viewer that renders all the brushes exactly as they are meant to look

おはようございます
これっくらいのお弁当と
今日は作業集中チルいアプリ #gogh と、 #OpenBrush で描いた 3マス(3ヶ月でマスターする絵を描く) の第7回目の犬 🐕 goghにそれをスクリーンセーバーみたく組み込んで、と。

夏も近づいてかき氷🍧をおやつに出したり、除湿モードでエアコン稼働したり今年はそこまで暑くならなそうなことも聞いた気がするけどそれでも暑い夏が来るのは戦々恐々……。

無理なく動きたいですねぇ。体育祭もあるからgkbrしてる我……とは言っても、子供は教室で食べるのでちっちゃいお弁当を何個か作るだけで良い。昔は2時に起きて色々作ってたんだから楽よねw

A dream recreation of this dress-portal to the past. Created in VR with #openbrush, room animated in Unity

Dress in a Rotating Room — Elizabeth Honer

My friend and I approach a dress which transports us to the past, but we cannot stay conscious.

Because social media is a fragmented mess? We have a mailing list!

We fixed a bug in the beta yesterday that broke sketch loading on the Quest. If you switched away from the beta because of this - it should be fine now to switch back. Thanks to Kudo Albus for reporting this and helping test the fix.

(small correction - we just tested the latest beta on Android and seems to work just fine. So - knock yourself out using Open Brush on your phone!)

Open Brush @openbrush.app · May 2

Oh. And you can join multiplayer rooms from desktop as well.

Found this old TILT BRUSH VR doodle I did way back when. I miss the experimentation of the earlier days of VR. I think VR is an amazing CREATION tool, just no the consumption tool that most folks want.

(In theory it also works on Android and iOS but we need to fix a couple of bugs first)

Open Brush @openbrush.app · May 2

Something we don't talk about enough is how you can use Open Brush without a headset. Whether it's just viewing sketches on a Mac, running scripts to automate tasks or making algorithmic art - it's really cool: docs.openbrush.app/user-guide/m...

(And yes - I did say "on a Mac". Or a Steam Deck...)

If you want a private space, just pick a room name that is hard to guess. The room owner can mute, kick out set other users to "view only" mode.

This release has support for paint and eraser tools in multiplayer. We will gradually add support for other tools and features over time.

Great example of a use case we've had people mention to us in the past. There's so many people using Open Brush for things way outside of what it was originally intended for. More of this, please!
