Traditional watercolor brushes for grease pencil - Blender 3.4+

December 2024 update:

These brushes are now compatible with grease pencil 3, and Blender 4.3!

In the product pack, you'll find a new .blend file, as well as a short video explaining what's been changed and how to use these new brushes. To see a recap video of ALL my brush updates, you can watch this video on YouTube.

I'm still getting the hang of the new update, so if you have any feedback on these brushes, feel free to message me at sophiejantak@gmail.com

Recently, I revisited one of my first videos where I explored how to get a watercolor style with grease pencil.

Well, 2.5 years and multiple Blender updates later, how I would tackle this goal is completely different. This new brush pack makes use of the stroke outline feature introduced in Blender 3.4 (which has been a game-changer for me!), and the brushes are made from real watercolor textures that I made myself, scanned and digitized. I think the result is a much more natural, painterly look than I've ever been able to achieve.

I made this video about these new brushes and how they compare to my first brush pack. I also explore what I do differently, and what new techniques and tools I use. I recommend watching it to see how I add the brushes, and tips for using them.

This pack consists of 108 brushes, divided by into 6 different color folders. They are yours to use for unlimited personal and commercial works, just don't redistribute them.

Also included is my real-time process video footage of using these brushes to create the cover artwork.
1 hour and 45 minutes of silent process video, divided into 3 sections.

And the .blend file of this artwork.

Thank you!

Your support helps me to keep making videos, tutorials, and cool grease pencil stuff :)

I'm so grateful for this community and I hope you have a great time using these brushes!
