you probably get this all the time, but what program + brushes are you using?? I've been looking for something with a brush that behaves like a irl pencil for a long time and your most recent art is scratching that itch in my brain
Hey no worries, and you’re the first to ask actually :D I recently found an app called concepts, which is available for free on both the iPad and PC. You can pay for extra features, but the free version is sufficient enough for moi and the tools provided are great. The only feature it’s missing in the free version is scaling/movement tool but you’ll get used to not having/using it (if you’re stingy like me and refuse to pay).
Here’s a link to their app page for you’re perusing pleasure:
Every idea begins as a concept. Write notes on the infinite canvas, make mind-maps and mood boards, sketch plans, designs and illustrations.
The tools I use are the basic dynamic pen, marker and watercolours, all base kit in the free version :>
Now go, and have fun drawing cool stuff in this cool app🫡

hiiiii, man I should really check my inbox more often, not sure how long this has been sitting in there lolol

I got Clip studio and a bunch of animation/storyboarding programs (toon boom harmony, storyboard pro, opentoons) so from now on I'll be using those once I figure out how to use them (and get comfortable using a stylus again since I've been doing digital art with my fingers for years now lol)
Thanks for the question!
I don't know if this will be of any use to any artists out there, but Humble Bundle currently have a bundle that includes Corel Draw Essentials 2021, Painter Essentials 8, Pinacle Studio 25 Ultimate, and some brushes.
The offer is only on for a few more days, but it looks like there's a lot of stuff in there that might be useful.
Nomad Artists: Crafting Creativity Across the Globe
The traditional concept of an art studio has evolved significantly in the digital age. Modern artists are increasingly breaking away from the confines of four walls and embracing a nomadic lifestyle that combines their passion for travel with their creative pursuits. These globe-trotting creators carry their studios in their backpacks, drawing inspiration from diverse cultures and landscapes to…

LibreOffice has a free drawing program that creates and edits .psd files???????
Hey fellow artists! For those of you who have been recently screwed over by your digital art software of choice, consider trying out Krita
Not only it's free and open source, it is also taking a stance against AI features
Also, it's simply a great program with lots of amazing features, cool brushes, plugins and even animation tools I can't recommend it enough
