Been home for all but 2 hours and I’m already having a breakdown over how left out I feel in this house…somebody just yeet me with a grenade launcher.
Hello Vika, would you please share what Procreate brushes you use? 🥺 I only found the ones you've used back when you used Sai when searching your blog / the tutorial live stream you released on YouTube. Thank you so much, I hope you're doing well!
Helloˆˆ To be honest, the majority of brushes I use currently are bought, so if you don’t mind that part, I can totally share💫
🦔So for lineart/small details/sketching my favourite is Vis Dev Sketch from Retro Max Packs set. The way it behaves is something absolutely unique and I haven’t found an alternative in standard procreate set. But I used Technical pencil from standard set for ages before it, so it works just fine too! Although quite differently.
🐿 For colouring I use standard Script brush from procreate! I think it should be in Calligraphy (or how is it called in English?) folder, though I tweaked it so the streamline isn’t so heavy. I have it at around 15% or so.
🦦 For shading I use another brush from Retro Max Packs set, which is Gouache Shader Wash. That is for Multiply layer shading, I then do some extra shading on face/hair, and for the face I use Watercolour Eraser (from watercolour maxpacks, I think), and for the hair I use Watercolour wash clean (also from the same set). In general I have like. 3-4 sets bought from Max Packs alone and I tweak and use many brushes occasionally from each set alsdasld I . I really love them. But in a way I think something from Calligraphy set can work (with tweaked steam line). Mine are in Russian so I can only translate vaguely how they can be in English, but something along the lines of Pen with nibble or Water pen!)
🦥 Foooor lighting, it depends. Currently it’s Thin Render Solid from Jingsketch brush set (but I bought everything, moved it into favourites folder and now I don’t remember which section it was in initially) . But seriously, for this I can feel like you can use script, which will act similarly (though Thin render is softer on edges). I also sometimes use Gouache Clean (from same old Gouache set of, take a wild guess, Max pAcks.) But same as in previous, for this if I was limited to standard set I would use Pen with nibble or Waterpen from Calligraphy standard set.
That’s mostly is. Considering how many I have now I switch and experiment here and there (especially with backgrounds and such), but that’s pretty much it for my faves! I’m sorry they all aren’t free;;;
I hope it helps!ˆˆ
