Well...getting better!...not getting any quicker thoughO.o
The recent drawings have started to look like the ones I used to do with Rotring's and Bristol Board...Also learnt a lesson with this one ...remember to change your Wacom nib when it gets worn...Otherwise 'strange things' can happen....:)

InkBrush Project (WIP)
New set of brush tools using raster and vector brush sets
Essentially brushes without significant brush dynamics to mimic using ink (black/white)

Using new inkBrush vector sets based on Inktober 2018

A. inkBrush - Vector - Inking  
B. inkBrush - Vector - Paint 
C. inkBrush - Vector - Texture 
D. inkBrush - Vector - Effect 
E. inkBrush - Vector - Granular

InkBrush Vector Inking

 9 sample brushes taken from Vector Brush set (inkBrush - Vector -Inking) [30 vector brushes]

@StuartRcWonderful work Stuart, as usual ;) Are you going to upload all these terrific brushes ? I do not quite use brushes for my hobbyist "work" but I would do an exception for yours :)

Cheers,

Patrick

Thank you Patrick...it is a 'chunk of work'..but fun:)

To a point yes!..Inktober for me is just the leverage to develop some side projects. The new brush toolkit is just one of those! I built it specifically for inking. So there are 100's of new nozzles and seamless textures a lot of which I have used in the drawings...The bulk of the dynamic settings were removed to make them act more like ink.

I am trying to built the inkbrush project it into a document at the moment using Publisher, hence the different layout. I have completed most of the brushes but there are  a number of sets that I still have to work on (Effects;Bristle;Stipple;)..they have their brushes but not organised yet and assets and styles (as inktober 2017). As it's so big I just thought it would be useful to bring it up-to-date to so I can concentrate on the rest. (and there are still 2 drawings 2 do! (Jolt and Slice))

I tend now to upload 'Project Brushes' to resources as they are more convenient to use when working on a drawing. There are 3 (at the moment!) that are part of this project (Prickly, Muddy, and Crop)..I just have not had the time yet to finalise the brush sets.

...really wanting to move to working on some new vector drawings...and this project is in the way!O.o:)

Never thought to do a Tutorial on how to make brushes ? or did you ?

I would be interested to know the workflow and do some brushes :)

I have been considering it...but as of yet not put anything together...There are a number of good tutorials out there but they don't seem to be consolidated or comprehensive in any way...in terms of covering all the options that could be used/deployed to create brushes.Personally I just use Affinity software to create and generate them.

 I put some links in one the resource threads...(Brushes released to resources)...this will help...but I will have a think about a tutorial...
