For the past 2 years ive been experimenting with the bristle engine, and i made a simple bundle of my favorite brushes ive been using almost exclusively for about a year.
Now, yes, the bristle engine is very simple, but my main idea for these brushes is making a brush without anti-aliasing. Since there is no “turn off anti-aliasing” button in the bristle engine brushes settings i kind of got it by accident by messing around the “ink depleition” settings.
So this bundle has 3 simple brushes:
❀ Bristle Line ❀ (yellow)
This one is a brush for fine lineart and very textured lines
✿ thick Bristle Line ✿ (blue)
This one is for a more opaque thick line
❃ FUNNI BRISTLE ❃ (green)
This…well is kind of a chaotic brush i was not gonna include at first for being too “gimmicky”, but after some time i found myself having a lot of fun sketching with this one.
The way it works is that the brush shape is constantly rotating, if you use a drawing tablet, the more you press on your tablet the less control you have on the line shape. It gives a very interesting effect.
I understand this might not be the best brush for anyone, but i wanted to include it anyways because if i had fun with it maybe someone else could have fun with it too.
Anyways, please have fun wth my brushes, and feel free to give feedback and let me know about your expirience using them
Here are some images of my own art made with these brushes:
These look so interesting ヽ(°〇°)ノ I’m glad someone has been exploring the bristle engine, as much as I love the pixel/smear one, I feel like the others have a lot of untapped potential.
For example, using the filter engine I figured out a way to have consist “wet” looking drips via a vertical blur effect.
I’ve been meaning to dip into the bristle engine next, so thank you for posting!
One question the old package, did you upgrade? It’s just that it was said that you were going to put those drawings in the brushes, but it seems that you haven’t updated, do you intend to do it any year?
I was gonna include them in the pixel brushes bundle, but I realized that the usage I gave them deviated a lot from the other brushes, so I decided to leave them as a separate smaller bundle
thank you! im glad the crazy brush is fun to use for you too, i think unpredictability in brushes can be interesting to work with for fun effects, trying to tame the brush can make drawing expirience fun somehow, at last thats how i feel using this brush
In case you don’t live behind the (in fact “not so”) great firewall, this is possible, but if so, then please tell us and we can help.
On the other hand, I can assure you the site is up and working as it should, so there is no issue with that site.
What you can try is, for instance use another browser, or to disable your ad-blockers, could be an idea too in such cases. Or in case you are using an institutional internet connection, like from your university, or school, or maybe you are in a public library, or at work, then it is possible that these block the access to such sites.
Sorry, what has your Website with brushes on ko-fi to do? ko-fi is up and working, can it be that you can not access ko-fi, for instance because you are behind the (not so) Great Chinese (Fire-)Wall? Or do you simply not know how to get brushes from ko-fi, what you have to do, then we can help?
