How to draw a paintbrush ? Step 3

The metallic part

We duplicate and modify the body so as to keep the form.
Duplicate : "Edit" -> "Duplicate", the duplicated object appear.
In the filling up toolbox choose none for this object.
To edit the outline we must toggle into Edit Mode (spacebar).
The aim is to take the 2 lateral points down and to delete the point at the end.

We use an asymmetrical modification to the higher points to obtain this rounded form.
(refer to the third drawing that shows the edited points)
First select the appropriate button and then the point.
See the Floating curves toolbox for more details.

Then fill up the object with a gray gradation.
You can reuse the previous gradation used for the body with the command called "update from" but don't forget to modify the colors.
