hey art babies, you know the saying "the brushes/ settings don't matter..." take it with a grain of salt
i used to preach this too. But hunny, I've learned that sometimes the brushes you use really do matter. A game-changer even lol

this is coming from someone who used default brushes for years, (the only time I used custom brushes was for my thesis lol) and finally experimented with other brushes in this year of our lord 2020
quality of life improved after that, i assure you

Another pencil set, this time by Paolo Limoncelli. They emulate actual graphite so well it's wild https://gumroad.com/l/nDmxJ
This Gouache Set by @/roastedstix has been really fun to use for painting (and these are what I use to add the texture on my food art lol)

I don't use Photoshop for drawing anymore (I solely use it for post-prod effects these days) but @/Yuumei_Art's Cloud brushes have made a long way for me then~

btw don't get it twisted! the brushes arent substitutes to fundamentals. it should be treated as a complement/ enhancement. theres no blueprint on how to make a line with the brushes as theyre a resource used according to your knowledge/skill
any artist who treats it like a classified trade secret is being disingenuous & self-absorbed ;)
