Looking for flat bristle brush

I’m looking for a brush similar to this (from around 3:20 in)

The closest I could find so far is the Knife Flat Smudge from TheFlow collection, though I wonder if there’s anything even closer to that flat bristle brush in the video.

P.S. In case the URL doesn’t take you to the right video, is the third one called First Sketch.

I don’t have an account so can’t open that video but I have an idea. Open the Brush Selector (F6), make sure it’s set to “all” at the top and type the word bristle in the search box at the bottom. Krita comes with many brushes, including bristles. You may already have what you’re looking for.

For people who don’t have the account to view the video here is a screenshot of the brush

I think this is a flat brush with a canvas texture (or some kind of grunge texture) applied to it

The closest I can think of on top of my head is maybe these from Ramon Miranda’s charcoal set

The download link is in the description here:

The look of that Photoshop brush looks nice, saving it as inspiration, I would like to try making something similar at one point! :smile:

Thanks for posting that screenshot, it wouldn’t let me grab one (when I tried, the player became blank).

@Rakurri Thanks, those are really nice! Charcoal 16 Comp Block BG gets close.

I’ve also grabbed these ones from Odzuki, and one in particular resembles the bristle brush I’m after:

Thanks for all the suggestions!

I started using Krita only in the past few days, I’m already loving it. I’m only scratching the surface, but it seems already a beautiful software with an equally lovely community.

hmm, yep! @Rakurri you were right. That brush can do concept art.
