The ability to import and use raster brushes (like photoshop brushes)
I don't know it's even possible to support raster painting in this type of app but I can't help but feel the urge to use my favorite photoshop or procreate brushes to take a project from a being a sketch to a fully presentable finished work.
Here's how I imagine it could be used:
1- draw/paint directly with photoshop/procreate brushes to create storkes (some built in brushes already look photoshop brushes with texture and opacity properties so maybe it's possible to extend on that? Like take an unlit brush and just import on it the properties of photoshop brush like stamp texture?
2- use the photoshop/procreate brushes to texture existing strokes made by the built in brushes, say for example you paint a circle with the unlit brush in Open brush then you select it and then use a photoshop brush to texture the unlit circle, the texture will only go on top of the selected strokes...does that make sense?
Kinda unrelated but:
3- if the above is not possible then please consider adding the ability to texture models in Open Blocks using photoshop brushes, I imagine one would create a model in Open blocks than go to texturing mode and be able to use imported brushes to draw textures on the selected model, I used to do this in procreate where I import a 3D object to procreate and texture it there with procreate's brushes, the results are extremely satisfying (but tedious to work with 3D in a 2D app)
Please let me know if any of these solutions are reasonable or impossible to implement in Open brush, But I personally think it's super important to have a feature like that so Artists can add thier own unique touch and style to thier Open brushes sketches because being limited to the same few basic brushes is making it hard to stand out
