Project Brush Assets Ammonite [Mixed Source] 4

Recommended Posts

Project Brush Set 04 Ammonite 
Used to create Ammonite Hotel
Updated the brush set to version 2:)...I can draw some more Ammonites now!

Changes/improvements as below

Version 2.0
1. Removed old versions redundant now..
2. Made significant changes to the brush dynamics and nozzles. All nozzles are now vector based replacing previous raster versions (as much as possible)
3. There is a significant number of new nozzles for the brushes Which means they are not like original sets..
4. Made use of the 1.7/1.8.2 brush engine in AD/AP using subBrushes.
5. The old brush set was appearing darker and less intense with 1.7/1.8 update...I have fixed that with this version!
6. Updated the Sample sheets to newer (latest) layout..Sub brushes are displayed in red.

Updated for Affinity 2 but retained version 1 brush set
Affinity 01

Affinity 01: Original Brush set (Sample sheet removed)
Affinity 02
Affinity 02: Updated version 2 set with adjustment to dynamics to include Distance and Interpolate (Sample sheet as below). Updated Texture bases to new versions extracted from PB 19 Inker 

Archived the Older Brush set and updated Library information

Hey, Stuart R!

 

Thanks for offering the brushes. Just spent about 10 min. playing w. them, And did enjoy. I think they will be useful for more than Cretaceous illustration.

Hi,

Just came across this post and the samples of the brushes look great! Well done. 

Sorry for what might be a daft question but can the second set (vector brushes) be used within AD on an iPad? If so then how do you import them as I tried to do so but the file is not selectable when I see it where I uploaded it to iCloud. I did unzip it first of course ;-)

There’s currently a problem with import of styles into AD on iPad if you don’t also have APh installed. I was under the impression that import of brushes didn’t suffer from the same problem, but perhaps that’s not the case.

Edit: I’ve just discovered that importing from iCloud doesn’t work for me, either! I had to move it and then import it from another cloud storage account.

Hi Alfred..Thanks for looking into it..Unfortunately I cannot really help in this situation as I do not have access to IPad or Mac OS...are you saying they work but have to play around with import options?

Thanks! I do have AP on the iPad too. I didn't think at the time to try another cloud location so just copied the file to Dropbox and that has now worked so thank you for the heads up on that. 

Best wishes,

Mark

I’m trying to use the vector brushes on Designer Ipad, and experimenting, but they appear to crash the app. Are you aware of this?

They don’t crash Affinity Designer for iPad here. I’m running version 1.6.3.44 under iOS 12.0.1 on an iPad Air 2, if it matters.

It would be difficult for me to be 'aware' as I work on a PC...I am sorry to hear you are having issues..

As Alfred has pointed out..they should work without an issue.....I am not aware of any bugs apart from the previous import issue that has been Highlighted...

There shouldn't really be a problem...I use the same set on PC regularly... and it is exactly the same file...

All My Brushes were created in AD directly and are 'mostly' vector based nozzles;exported as .PNG. This set has not been updated for a while..But I have been using it on Inktober2018. (Just checked..installed OK here..[only install sets when I need them..hence project brushes])

If you are still having issues can I suggest you raise a bug report so one of the Moderators/Developers could have a look?...Hopefully it's not too much of an issueO.o

NB:Just deleted installed pack..downloaded forum version and re-installed.....worked fine!

Thanks for the reply here - I have only recently found and installed the brushes. I can’t say why the few I tried were causing a crash - it may have been the file I was working in since it’s all fine now in other documents. I’ll keep exploring and post back if there are issues. It’s fascinating to see how they are created using a combination of vectors and bitmaps. Thanks for making them available to us!!

(fyi My Ipad is currently running the latest iOS 12 public beta, and that could have something to do with it.)

Thanks, Stuart! LOL about the brush control skills: it’s just typed text, I’m afraid (Droid Sans, for those wondering).
