INK•

The raster brushes for inking + macro script for 100% black.

Version 2.0. Edited and improved:

44 Raster Brushes for Realistic Digital Inking in Affinity Photo & Affinity Designer, both desktop and iPad software versions.

With all settings: (41 brushes imitating real pens, brushes, sprays, and splashes + 3 splashes/blot brushes identical to the "SPLASHES" Brush set)

🔹 In addition to 44 brushes, the product includes the DEHALFTONIZER macro action script for Affinity Photo for delicate turning grey areas into the dotted halftone:
The brushes imitate such real instruments as sharp nib pen and flat pen, bristle, round, and flat brushes loaded with ink, ruling pen, and folded pen; some of them make some nice spatter as real instruments do. Several sprays and splash brushes are used to give liveness and fine naturalness to your art.
