SK3 aka "Pencils for graphite lovers"

Hi community! If you are looking for the best pencils with a realistic behavior created by me, there we go. I published a long video here

The brushes are in the pinned link. and in the video description.

DOWNLOAD the bundle : KDE - Experience Freedom!

I publish also a VLOG showing the backstage and process

WHAT DOES SK3 CONTAIN?

When I started this bundle it was high level challenge. More pencils? for me this is the updated and improved SK1 version. SK2 was more oriented to be easier and more versatile for colored drawing pencils. Let me show you some important things:

40 Brushes to master Graphite.

TEXTURES WITH AUTO INVERT NEW FEATURE INCLUDED

that way you can draw and erase and the texture position will be respected and also the interaction between brush strokes. Test it and let me know if you love it.

GREAT RANGE OF TEXTURES

BRUSHES MADE CAREFULY BY HUMAN INTELLIGENCE

When I create brushes I test them deeply to see what can be improved. These were done without tilt. in laptop Lenovo X240. That way I can test performance in low specs device. Then I go back and polish in desktop. With Intel core ultra 5 225F CPU. That gives me a wide range to play with.

As you can notice I draw a lot from my memory. Is curious because I am testing texture, performance, pressure, tilt behavior and so on. but is really fun to see how a brush grows.

I used paper templates to see the effect. I decide this would be the image for NO TILT version I am working on.

SK3 no tilt will be published ASAP. Specially designed for good performance.

GO BEYOND YOUR OWN STYLE

I even try to reproduce in real time other artist´s work, like Carl Purcell. Le t me share the video here. Fantastic work in no time. https://youtu.be/udnje2vmuQM?si=wcw9rhTyzlyr3nLF

The final Stages are the ones that I enjoy less. Everything needs to be polished and that is a loooot of time. In this case to mimic real drawing (Right side). Digital was on the left side

And micro detail has its own and unique time.

ORGANIZATION

You have SK3 tag to find really fast your brushes. But how i decide the order, names, and icons?

Is crazy but important, so i spend a lot of time thinking about icons, names and more things related with design. Everything is design by hand and one by one following a logic (in my head) from simple to complex. Note how Sk3 slogan was “Mastering Graphite” instead of “For Graphite lovers.”

Well this is SK3, Did you like it? Want to know more about how i make my brushes? just let me know. I read you :fire::heart::blush:

Well done. Are SK1 and SK2 obsolete?

Not at all. They are still functional. They were oriented to another purpose. color Pencils and easy use.

SK3 it has more textures, use extensively Tilt, and auto invert for eraser. Definately they are not the same.
