massive ginormous unfathomable thanks in advance

Salutations, friend! Not me personally, but this nice person has uploaded them with a few other sets too:

Link to tweet with DL below them.

Hi! Thanks 😊

I use Procreate’s default pencil brush and some brushes on Chromograph and Rusty Nib from here https://www.truegrittexturesupply.com

Fun Fact: It's been at least five years since I picked up a true Copic marker, so I'm not sure if I'm the best for this. I'll do my best! @ anyone reading this, feel free to suggest your favorites too. :o

This will be different since there will be GIFs for this to show you what they draw like. Marker feeling is just as important as marker look. I'll have the non-gif versions at the bottom to compensate for color loss. I'm going to recommend one paid set, then the rest are free, so you can scroll down if you don't have cash to spare.

Originally, one of the most popular CSP Copics was Wren's alcohol Makers - based on Copics themselves, texture & everything.

They're now 5$ on Gumroad. The original set was just 2 brushes & a texture IIRC, now it's several brushes & textures. If you like how they look, grab 'em here.

There's also Michael Guimont's set for 4$ which I haven't tried, but he did great with his pencil set so I'm guessing it's also quality. I also love this set by Frankentoon Studios for 15$, but the markers are a bit more messy than classic copics!

Ok, now the free stuff. There's 2 strategies for markers: make a brush with a texture, or make brushes and then a texture to put on top of it. You'll see what I mean below.

The CSPA reentry repository does. Scroll down/ctrl+F and it'll be there. But I can't mention it without saying you can get more brushes and textures from the maker here:

Truth is, not even my superpowers are that good. I can try and approximate though.

Edit: Check the Reblogs & Replies, other people have chipped in with links & responses.

Be forewarned though: I'm doing this since it's an interesting challenge to dissect other people's artstyles and I'm assuming the artist is too inactive/didn't respond for whatever reason. There's no real copyright on style or art technique, but do be aware some artist are very protective of their style. Some see it as an extension of themselves and get upset when they see copycats. I think there's nothing wrong with studying and learning other artists (for example a common exercise is copying a famous painting to learn technique of it for yourself), but I'll delete or modify this if L_E asks for the sake of respect. Most who copy other artist's styles usually go "Man, I wanna be that cool!" and do it for non malicious reasons, so I don't mind helping out. Usually people learn then diverge from the style, just another stage of learning and enjoying art.

For the future, I'm open to doing more asks like this since theyre interesting, but the best way is always to ask the artist first. Please enjoy Lemon Eyebrows' Ko-Fi, while we're at it.

Now to the meat of the post: The problem is a lot of brushes are similar to each other. It can also be a brush the artist created on his own, either from scratch or by modifying another. Usually, people just download the most popular brushes and use those since they're easy to use and provide good results (a good thing), so I'm going off that. Here's the best approximate I got.

シミペン・改 / Symi Pen Kai is my guess on lineart. It is a lightly aliased rough pen with good character, responsive to both speed & pressure.

かすれ油彩■リメイク (1776520) / Hoarse oil ■ Remake (1), オイルパステル / Oil Pastel (1702961) (2), & やわふわ厚塗り(1807544) / TPU Light Thick Coating are all brushes that can make the approximate of the shiny effect (3), while Hoarse Oil has the best general coloring look.

For a hard shiny surface, use something like a regular smooth pen or a Lasso Fill like this 1978471, draw out the shine line, then erase with a soft eraser (I used one at 60% hardness). You can then blend it with another coloring brush or a blending brush like the right side in case you want to make it less harsh.

Nope. This nice person has the DAE Ink link at least.

The first was once available to me but sadly had no clippy that time to purchase it and the rest doesn't pop up on my end.

I'd appreciate the help! Thank you!

Checked around - nope. I found the artist of the softsharp but they're in japanese and like to post art of questionable age people😬, so I'm not going to ask 'em. The Watercolor set is a mystery.
