Alyra is pleased to announce the launch of Das Brush, a new 3D drawing app for iPad that transforms Apple Pencil strokes into editable, stylable, lightable 3D forms.
Das Brush is built for tattoo artists, illustrators, and designers who want to move faster when exploring complex shapes without giving up creative control. Instead of redrawing the same complex forms again and again, artists can sketch once and continue refining inside a 3D workspace.
Every stroke in Das Brush becomes something you can shape. Users can draw snakes, chains, thorns, ribbons, tentacles, swords, stars, hearts, and more, then adjust thickness, twist, roll, depth, smoothing, transforms, materials, and lighting to build scenes that work as reference material or finished artwork.
Core features include:
- Direct 3D drawing with Apple Pencil on a compatible iPad
- Curve controls for thickness, twist, roll, depth, smoothing, and transforms
- Built-in forms and curve profiles including snakes, chains, tentacles, frogs, hearts, and more
- Custom colors and shaders including metal, glass, and toon styles
- Adjustable environment lighting for reflections, mood, and presentation
- Scene and material sharing for collaboration with friends or colleagues
- Render export to the photo library as .png or .jpg, including transparent .png support
Whether used for concepting, decorative design, lighting studies, references, or experimentation, Das Brush is designed to help artists create quickly while staying in control of the final result.
Das Brush is available now for iPad devices compatible with Apple Pencil.
