If I wanted to make a set of pipes for example used in a rollercoaster, would I have to use a series of round brushes to create the curves or can you 'BEND' a brush like you bend a pipe? I've tried the series of brushes and they look chuncky and don't align really well. Suggestions?

2d shape editor. Plenty of tutorials on it.

Will it make 'Round' vs 'Flat' brushes. And I hope you were not going to say use the 2D editor!

I've looked around in 'Wolfs' site for help on the 2D editor. Not much help. Please point me to a better site for help on the 2D editor. Thanks

As Jenkins brought to my attention the other night, (it's not because I didn't know how to use it, I just wasn't thinking of it) LOL.
Use the 2D editor and then use revolve and set the total number of sides in 360 degrees to 24 then if you want a 90 degree turn in total sides set it to 6 and click Build, if you wanted 180 degree turn you would type 12 in the total sides box...etc, etc...
