This is a complementary free crayon brush for Blender Grease Pencil to thank my subscribers on Youtube!

This brush is part of a pack that contains 12 hard brushes I made that are inspired by graphic comic and stylized illustration. I found the Blender default brushes lacking in familiar hard edge brushes in other software so I made my own counterparts that might be cool to use in 2D / 3D animation. I am a fan of the direction that Spiderverse, Arcane and the upcoming TMNT is taking animation so I wanted to make tools for indie animators/modelers using Blender that I would use myself in stylized effects animations.

How Blender applies brush textures is still a little limited, but I tried to make image textures that don't look so obvious repeated. If you scale the brush size, make sure to adjust the 'UV factor' under the materials for the stroke to control the density of the texture.

Youtube tutorial:

The icon thumbnails for the brushes may unlink and give you a grey box under your Browse Brush Tab. Don't worry! Your brush should still operate (.blend files retains info marked with the shield icon on) , you just need to relink the correct image thumbnail under 'Active Tool and Workspace Settings' (screwdriver and wrench) by clicking the custom icon (mountain and sun) and browsing to the thumbnail folder for the brush thumbnails which will be included in the download.

The download will include a .blend file with the ready to use, if you don't want to use this exact .blend file you can append the brush into your own file. If you are having any issues regarding the brush not working, feel free to send me a message at musubibiadventures@gmail.com and I will do my best to respond when I can.

Blender is free and open-source: https://www.blender.org/download/

Included: A .blend file in Blender 3.5 so make sure to keep updated in order for the brushes to operate properly, a .png image texture for the brush, a thumbnail .png image for your icon thumbnail in the brush browser


Edits:

12/29/2023 - I have checked compatibility with 4.0 and haven't seen any issues with opening the blend files from 3.6 to 4.0. There wasn't any big changes to Grease Pencil by the Blender Foundation as originally anticipated during Winter 2023.

3/21/2024 - I got rid of duplicate data block for images and textures I left in the file! I also packed the crayon .png texture in in the .blend file, just in case it was not loading on startup.
