Description i've gotten a few questions about my brushes, where i get textures, etc, etc. so here we go!

a few important notes to start off with -

 right click an empty spot and select a tool type to create a new brush! the options given are pencil, airbrush, brush, watercolor, marker, eraser, select and deselect/select eraser, bucket, and binary pen. pay attention to which tool type is used in each brush; it will definitely affect the results you get!


 several brush shapes (first drop-down menu) and textures (second drop-down menu) are included with the default version of SAI; additional textures for brushes and papers can be downloaded HERE !


 blogs like ptsbrushes and groups like PaintToolSaiBrushes  are full of cool brushes!


in addition to these brushes, which are my own, i really love

happy drawing, and don't forget: an artist's skill level is much more important than the brushes they use! these make adding effects and backgrounds easier and more interesting in my opinion, but how and when they are used plays a larger role in the final outcome. have fun!! ♡\( ̄▽ ̄)/♡

hmm, what do you mean? there's no download involved in the brush settings - you just need to create a brush and then make the settings the same as the screenshot from the link! (sorry for such a late response OTL)

Also, hope you dont mind, but how do I install the extra textures? I just don't really understand...

cheroid In reply to MultipleDimensionx [2015-12-30 22:01:48 +0000 UTC]

ahaha i actually forgot about all of my brush names until i had to screenshot them and then realized...oops
I don't mind at all, I'm happy to explain (or try to, at least aHA) -

this requires that you have winzip or a similar file compressing service! first, download the zip files for each of the components you want. blotmaps and elemaps (for example, Middle_Flat; first drop-down menu) change the brush's shape, brushtex affects a brush's texture (e.g. Dirt 06; second drop-down menu), and papertex changes the texture or pattern of the layer you're working on (on the same window as the layers > Paints Effect > Texture).
once all of the zip files have been downloaded, unzip them into the corresponding folders in your original sai folder - brushtex should be unzipped into the brushtex folder, papertex into the papertex, etc. 
close sai if you had it open previously and open the application start-sai, which should also be in the PaintTool SAI English Pack folder. this should do something similar to the rewriting of conf. files automatically, i believe? close start-sai and open normal sai again, and it should work!
if not, then go back and follow the directions in this post , which explains it much more clearly than i can, if i'm not making sense OTL

sorry for writing such a wordy response, but i hope it works anyway!! good luck and feel free to let me know if it doesn't work or if you need other sai-related help (ღ˘⌣˘ღ)
