# CreateBrush ( [red#][,green#][,blue#] )

# Parameters

red# (optional) - brush red value green# (optional) - brush green value blue# (optional) - brush blue value

# Description

Creates a brush and returns a brush handle. The optional green, red and blue values allow you to set the colour of the brush. Values should be in the range 0-255. If omitted the values default to 255. A brush is a collection of properties such as Colour, Alpha, Shininess, Texture etc that are all stored as part of the brush. Then, all these properties can be applied to an entity, mesh or surface at once just by using PaintEntity, PaintMesh or PaintSurface. When creating your own mesh, if you wish for certain surfaces to look differently from one another, then you will need to use brushes to paint individual surfaces. Using commands such as EntityColor, EntityAlpha will apply the effect to all surfaces at once, which may not be what you wish to achieve. See also: LoadBrush.
