Texture Painting Duplicate Brush

Support Materials and Textures

Hello everyone!
I’m learning the ropes to texture painting in Blender and have run across an issue. As you can see in the image below, when I directly paint on the model there is a duplicate brush slightly offset to my active one. It mirrors the active brush’s movements. It is effectively impossible to paint on the model directly because of this.

Oddly enough, when I paint on the UVs, the problem disappears.

Any ideas what could be causing this and/ or how to fix it? Hazarding a guess I think one of my UVs is flipped or something, but changing their arrangements hasn’t yielded anything.

Thanks in advance!

Hi…:slight_smile:

Need more info to be sure - But

It look’s like , it’s Your unwrap there is bad…All the side have/use the same UV…That’s why You don’t see it when You paint in the Uv Editor…Try unwrap it with Smart UV Project or Cube maybe…:slight_smile:

Think it will fix it…Else upload Your Blend…Puff Puff…And a Happy Christmas…Cheers

Thanks for the tips. Turns out one of the UVs was mirrored.
