Question

sketch has my favorite brushes, they're so realistic and have great textures. Fresco's brushes are just plain and subpar. I have procreate so I'd rather use that for nonrealistic/digital brushes than fresco tbh.

    I would commit crimes for the thick acrylic brush to be added to fresco!!! I have an unfinished piece sitting for years bc I can't finish without that brush 😞

      Ha ha, I  know exactly what you mean I feel the same way, I have tons of art work in process that I can't finish without that brush. It's also why I purchased my first I pad as that app and brush were on the iPad in the Apple Store. I was like , I have to have this  iPad for the fresco and acrylic brush. There is no other brush like that in photoshop or anywhere. I don't know why there is no brush that is even close to that brush. And I don't know why they just discontinued it. I don't use that app anymore. Or any Adobe products any longer. I moved on to Folioscope.

      Does Folioscope have a similar brush to the Adobe Sketch thick acrylic brush?

      I haven't used Fresco at all becuase I was so in love with the acrylic brush in Sketch, and there is nothing like that brush in Fresco, or anywhere else for that matter. That sketch app and the acrylic brush was what prompted me to buy my first iPad when I saw it in the store.

        Hi. 

         

        Many of Sketch's brushes are in Fresco. Which in particular are you looking for?

         

        Sue.

        Hello Sue, Thanks for the reply.
        I would love the sketch water colour flat brush (it has more realistic
        paper texture), soft pastel brush (it has a more realistic oil pastel
        effect) and the acrylic brush (has darker and lighter paint strokes, which
        make it look more realistic). the ones in fresco look too flat. 😞

          Hi. 

           

          Thanks for taking the time to list these brushes. 


          * The Soft Pastel brush from Sketch is in Pixel Brushes > Dry Media.
          * There is a Watercolor Wash Flat brush in Live Brushes > Watercolor but I don't know whether the effect is the same as it is in Sketch.
          * I do not see, or have any notes about, the Acrylic brushes that were in Sketch. I do see a Soft Acrylic brush in Pixel Brushes > Painting.

           

          I'll share your brush comments/requests with the team.

           

          Sue.
