Metallics by Draneria

A bundle designed to emulate metallic effects, for Krita.

This is my first time making brushes! If anyone tries them out, I’d absolutely love to see your art. These can definitely be improved, but I hope you enjoy! (。•̀ᴗ-)✧

👾 Bonus FaQ 👾

“I installed the bundle, but they aren’t all showing in the “Metallics (Draneria)” tag?”

╰──── :sparkles: Restarting Krita will resolve the issue! If anyone is aware of the cause, let me know.

“Some brushes have ugly corners when I change angles fast, what’s up with that?”

╰──── :waxing_crescent_moon: It’s due to performance optimisation. I can create a “high fidelity” version if it’s an problem for many people!

“Most examples are gold, are the colours fixed?”

╰──── :sparkles: Nope! You can use any colour with all 32 brushes. Bonus tip: When picking colours, if your result looks more plastic then metallic: try a darker value.

“Tilt Support?”

╰──── :waxing_crescent_moon: None right now, let me know it’s something you want to see in future releases.

"I’m still not sure if I want to download this :c "

╰──── :sparkles: Alright, here is a special present just for you… :wrapped_gift:Full PDF!:wrapped_gift: It has lots of pretty visuals and extra info, I am certain you’ll want to give them a go by the end (✧≖‿ゝ≖)

“I like your style, would you interested in creating (my favourite medium/movement)?”

╰──── :waxing_crescent_moon: Yes! I’ll be making more brushes, and I appreciate all feedback and ideas. If you are very passionate, a lil’ Ko-Fi tip will go a long way;)

“What about more or better metallic brushes?”

╰──── :sparkles: Also yes! If people like and enjoy these brushes, then get your beautiful cheeks ready for Metallics 2.0

I hope this helps! If you have any other questions, you can contact me here (Krita-Artists.org) or via art@draneria.com

Thank you very much for this extensive set of brushes and the accompanying resources, which will have taken an even greater amount of dedication and work to put together, but which make it to an all-round fine-tuned bundle, for which I would also like to say thank you.
And not forgetting to say thank you for sharing all of this with the community!

Can someone help me? I tried many methods, but I still can’t download files. I’m Chinese, but I really want this brush. My English is very poor, I hope my translation won’t affect reading :joy: :joy:

:slight_smile: Hello @star and welcome to the forum!

The both download links take you to ko-fi. On ko-fi you have to enter the amount you are willing to pay into the input-box on the right side (that is the box where a pale 0 is in), that can be anything even 0, so you can get these brushes for free if you want. After you have entered your amount, let’s say 0 into the box, you have to click on the blue bar below saying “Get Now”, on the opening page you have to enter your email-address and your name and click on the blue bar below, on which is written “Checkout Now”, then you’ll be presented another site where you have to scroll down and click on the black bar “View Content”, that will present you a dialog with two download buttons, one for the description and the next for the bundle. It is a good idea to download both.
Now you have downloaded them.

If you have issues to download them from China, then please send me a PM. To do so, just click on my username or on my avatar and then on the blue button named “Message”.

By the way, your English is very good. But should you search for a good translator, then try DeepL.com, it is currently the best available translator.

您好 @star!

I can’t verify because I am not Chinese or in China myself, but I’ve uploaded the bundle to 5 platforms which may work better if Ko-Fi is blocked in your country.

If you are successful in downloading and have the time, please mention which link worked! It’d be really helpful for me.

These are probably some of the prettiest metallic brushes I’ve seen!

Just bought them, and I’ll definitely be using them is some paintings very soon. Thanks for the hard work!

Sir, please forgive my Google translate, in my humble and ignorant knowledge as an artist, your brushes are on par with the Rebelle 7 brushes that I use, and with your ability to adjust them, I don’t want to even think what wonders you could offer us, impressive. Thank you, thank you.

Thank you so much Balder, you are too kind! Krita is the best :>
Also big thanks to Memileo - It would have been difficult to make this bundle without their amazing work :space_invader:

Great brushes and documentation for them, thank you.

I tested them a bit and I like the restults. The golden cat:
