Why isn't there airbrushes in the default brush set in Fresco? Is it because Adobe thought the other brushes like chalk etc achieves the same effect?

 

Correct answer Imaginerie

There is a lot of ground in Fresco that isn't covered by the Standard brushes and that's why the possibility of downloading the ones that are actually useful to you and fit your style is so important and part of the app!

On a personal level, I use a lot of noise, stipple and various other ones that are definitely not in the standard ones.

see this tutorial and see if it helps!

MOST of Adobe Photoshop brushes are compatible with Fresco as well, so much so, that I have created brushes in Photoshop that I use in Fresco, it's very simple, I then share them in a library, where they are shared with Fresco too (see second tutorial)

Although there is no airbrush labeled, soft round opacity is the best substitute.
