Stretched textures give more of a natural random textured look rather than looking like someone stamped a stencil into the paint. Right now in Krita, texture looks too predictable.
A stretched texture looks more like actual breaking paint (remember Bob Ross as he applied thick paint with a palette knife to make the highlight textures for mountains and trees? )
The users won’t have to worry about any rotation because the texture is stretched. (Works horizontally & vertically).
Might even look good in some places for hair highlights!

The following textures had been done with another drawing app using just such a brush. Making these effects goes much more quickly with just a stroke or two. This type of brush is also good with smudging as well.
So we use an image sample and instead of stamping it over and over, we simply stretch it on an invisible “band”? Corel Painter has something like that, I just took a small sample from your examples. With different brushes that use that engine, I can then paint it in color, stretch it, change brush modes…
No… as far as I know about CSP, they have nothing in common. CSP doesn’t change the texture, it just handles dab in some way. So the randomness depends on how many DAB you set.
Compared with the engine, I prefer it to be a dab option, so that it can inherit other parameter functions, just like in CSP.
