Tilt Brush is one of the most fascinating tools in virtual reality that lets you create your own drawing and canvas in 3D space. With multiple tools available for drawing and editing, Tilt Brush offers endless possibilities for users and artists, to explore their imagination.
While an average
Tilt Brush user in virtual reality must have tried some basic geometries and shapes, here we have a professional whose
Tilt Brush skills will make you admire him more. One of the well-known and notable personalities in Virtual Reality - Tipatat Chennavasin - shares his insights about how
Tilt Brush got its name and how to make an effective use of this wonderful tool. In addition to being very popular amongst VR enthusiasts,Tipatat is also the co-founder for Virtual Reality Fund. While talking about his experience using
Tilt Brush, Tipatat says
“I knew some of the creators while they were working at double fine before Google. We started talking and they brought me in to show off one of the earliest versions of this thing called Tilt Brush.

It was originally called TiltBrush because the concept had you drawing on a 2D canvas that you could actually tilt as you drew. It was really the first creation tool for VR and it was the coolest thing I’ve ever seen.”
Tipatat Chennavasin has spent most of his time by exploring the possibilities for creating 3D drawing using
Tilt Brush. He believes
, it is the process of creating several masterpieces using the
Tilt Brush, that makes it all-the-more loveable and exciting. Tipatat shares his three special works with
Tilt Brush, one which depicts an sports moment with boxing icon Muhammad Ali, the second showing a Santa wearing a VR headset, and the last showing up the characters of the classic comic "Calvin and Hobbes" in 2.5D.

While sharing his experiences about creating all these masterpieces, Tipatat says
“My approach is to attempt a sort of 2.5 dimensional style. The key is to always be thinking in terms of depth not necessarily lines. With the Muhammed Ali piece, for example, I drew the outline first and then physically moved to the profile to do the fills and color. When you’re drawing a face on a 2D piece of paper you draw a circle for the head lines for the moth and eyes all at one plane. But in TiltBrush what you should do is draw the outline of the head, then take a small step back and add the eyes, then take another step back and add the nose, then move slightly forward and add the mouth, etc. It may sound simple but these little changes in mindset and technique are what sets VR art apart.”
Moreover, while using
Tilt Brush, he wants the serious and aspiring artists to “stick to just one brush”. He believes that most of the artist confuse themselves by trying several brush options, which ultimately leads to complicate things more.
