CLIP STUDIO PAINT BRUSHES THREADHi all! Here’s my thread on csp brushes that I use and recommend! (*´∇｀*)
FYI: I use clip studio paint on the ipad. I use an iPad 14.2. The ipad ver of csp is subscription based, but if I remember correctly I paid ~$20 for the year. Plus there’s a 3 mo trial period
Also disclaimer: I’ve been using csp only for like, 6 months
. I’m nowhere near a pro at art either.
Disclaimer #2: pen pressure settings and art styles may vary results. I’ve used brushes that looks great with others art but with mine it looks like 10 cans of bounce dat ass so

Btw anything with “
” is a fave of mine and ones I use very regularly.
I’ll try to attach works and zoom in on areas that I used each brush
And since making this thread, these brushes are free unless stated otherwise directly with the links.

Okay I think that’s all I got! I hope these help a bit for those navigating csp brushes for the first time! I know for me at least, it took a bit to get my bearings but google and youtube is your best friend tbh!
Also don’t forget to check out the csp assets site for more!! There’s so many assets I didn’t mention here bc I wanted to focus on brushes, but they have so many assets for BGs, filters, gradient maps, details, special fx & much more. It’s so godsend

also if u follow my work & was curious about a brush(es) that i used in a specific work/ part of work, feel free to link it in the replies and I can try to tell you what brush(es) I used there.
Idk sometimes seeing that kind of stuff helps me figure out my own method so lol

also these brushes are multi-purpose! Don’t be afraid to use a brush that was made for “x” detail for another. (ex. pencil for flat coloring)
Anyways, yeah if I think of any other brushes I will link them here but other than that, I hope this thread helps you!!
