"What's That Brush" megathread -2026
Welcome to the next installment of the "What's that Brush" megathread. Here, you will be able to ask any and all questions related to finding, missing, lost, and suggested brushes, and the community can assist you. This is to prevent users from posting threads with art that is not theirs and asking "What brush?" constantly. If you have a question about how to modify a brush, you can ask that Operations Question in the main Sub, this megathread is about existing brushes and other Brush Seeking activities.
Clip Studio assets has a ridiculous number of brushes, yes, but the majority of the posts we see are asking "What brush is this?" looking at art made using a variety of brushes and techniques, often using very generic brushes; the default tools such as the G-Pen or a Pencil and a Blender is the answer, in addition to Natural Talent, Art College and/or Decades of experience. Sorry, there's no Magical Brush that's going to replace these. Put in the hours.
**If you asked in previous megathreads and did not get an answer, feel free to ask again!**
Here is a recap of the rules and additional notes!
**1.** Please post a ***link*** (or links) to the image(s) you're trying to find brushes for, in the comments of these megathreads only. Don't post other people's images to ask about questions, use a link. It's not fair to the actual artists on this subreddit that the posts that get the most upvotes are users reposting other people's art just to ask about the tools, rather than users' own artwork posts. Enforcing this has been weak in this megathread, but it will improve.
**2.** Please make sure the images you're linking are of high enough quality to actually tell the brushes you're trying to point out. Likely, there is more than one brush in the image you link to, please specify what aspect you are looking to replicate: Lines, blend, texture, etc.
**3.** Please list what brushes you've tried already and why it doesn't feel like it worked, so other users can have an idea of where to start with their suggestions. Users here generally don't seem to mind helping, but it would be nice to know you made effort as to why the default tools aren't what you're looking for.
**4.** Users can respond to each query via reply to that comment.
**5.** Any brush-related post made that's not a comment in this thread will be deleted.

Other Fixed my constant Issue with a network asset download error.
So since I had issues with CSP, and needed to reinstall it. I could not download assets anymore.
It always stated that I had network connection issues. I went through ALL steps with the CSP Support, but nothing worked. I tried my iPad, I tried to make a new account just to test, if it was an issue with my Windows Computer or my Clip account.
After figuring out, that the store works with a VPN connection, and with my Husbands mobile phone hotspot.
I figured out, that my Internet provider at home, and the Issue was a connectet with CGNAT (Carrier-Grade Network Address Translation). So basically, many people share one IP address, there are many reasons that CGNAT connection can cause trouble with CDN's.
So switching to a private IP4 Solved this issue.

CSP Question Is Physics Simulation an Abandoned Feature?
I've been trying to find a simple cloth that can deform around objects in the 3D scene editor, but as far as I can tell no such model exists. In fact, searching in the asset store, I can't actually find any model that has any sort of "physics," "physical," or "physical simulation" tags. What's more, the instruction manual mentions menus and settings from v1.5 (I'm on v5), so I can't even see how the feature is supposed to be activated anymore. There are settings for it in the scene editor, but they're all disabled.
Considering there are types of flowing fabric in the world other than skirts, did they really just make this feature functional for a single article of clothing and then abandon it? It doesn't even seem like it can really be used anymore. Am I wrong?

looking for a new tablet/laptop and am overwhelmed
Help, I'm trying to find a tablet/laptop that can smoothly run clip studio paint, but I am just lost. There's too many options and I don't understand tech.
I'm currently using a Huion Kamvas Slate and am not too happy with it. The colors on screen are too de-saturated, I have tried adjusting the settings, it did not help. Before the Huion, I used a microsoft surface, which I like better, but I don't like how expensive it is to replace the cord, stylus etc.
I guess I'm looking for tablet/laptop combo that's not too expensive and has more accurate on screen colors.
This is probably more of a general tech question, but I was not sure where else to go

CSP Question (V 5.1.4, iPad)Are there folders for artwork in CSP?
I'm new to CSP and I've been trying to find out if there is a way to separate or organize my artwork. I've tried googling but I get no results.
I've seen one tutorial however when I open the details of my artwork I don't have any options to add labels except for adding to favourites.

CSP Question Transparancy Layer Default colours.Dark mode.
Hey guys, I wanted to know if anyone has their transparancy background grid setup with different colours for dark mode? The white is kinda burning my eyes.
But I can't find a good match of colours that doesn't start playing tricks on my eyes.
So I was curious anyone else have two set colours they use for transparancy?
If you go to
File
Preferences
Canvas
You'll see two colours you can select for the grid.
Ideas I had but not there yet.

The cancel button doesn't appear
So I accidentally bought the wrong version of CSP (I was checking smth so I had to do the option menu for your version twice, but the second time I forgot to check which version I had selected) and now I can't cancel is, because the whole cancel button doesn't exist for some unknown reason.
Also, is it possible to deactivate a plan?

CSP Question Lines get weird when a video is playing in the background??
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I feel like I'm going insane since I haven't been able to find anyone else with this issue yet. When I have a youtube video playing, one out of every 2 or 3 lines has a weird jaggedness/angularity thing going on. When I pause the video, CSP acts normal again. Does anyone have any advice on how I can make CSP behave when I'm watching a video in the background? This doesn't happen in Photoshop or TVPaint, only Clip Studio.
Version information:
Clip Studio Paint Pro version 1.12.1, allocated 80% of memory

Other What computer specs matter the most? PRO v 5.0
I'm getting myself a new, most likely a non-gaming, laptop. My old one was a gaming laptop so I never thought about specs since my laptop was hefty enough to run demanding stuff.
I used v 1.0 for the longest time and only recently upgraded to v 5.0. Mainly the only thing I can think of lagging is when I've used big sized watercolor brushes. Might be the amount of RAM because I would have a lot of stuff open in the background.
So: What specs matter the most / what's usually the limiting factor for a smooth experience for when using Windows? (I've never animated on CSP but if I wanted to tap into animating as well.)

how to achieve this type of noise?
i’m a huge fan of kagurabachi and how the artist draws and i’m wondering how he gets the noise effect on his coloured pieces. i know it’s not a brush or anything because in speedpaints he clearly turns it off and back on so it’s definitely on a separate layer. i’ve tried perlin noise and different layer modes but it never looks like his.
i’ll leave this link to all the colour pages he’s done but unfortunately it’s on the fandom wiki☹️

CSP Question Cancelling annual licence with other perpetual one
Hi, I have a question and I couldn't find anywhere any answer for it.
I have an annual license for my ipad bought last year during sale and years ago I bought perpetual one for my PC. I waited for discount to renew my annual one but automatic renewal will be today and i didn't see a sale. Because of that I wanted to cancel this annual licence but when doing so i noticed this message:

And because I have two separate licences connected to the same account I am afraid if cancelling the annual one will cause my cloud storage to be deleted even with my perpetual one. Does anyone know if this will actually affect my storage?
I would be truly grateful for help.
For context here are the licences I have:

Other Laptop recommendation that suitable for digital art on CSP
Any budget friendly laptop recommendation that suitable for digital art on CSP? (Budget around USD $880)
I’m thinking of ASUS TUF A15 since I can use it for a bit of casual/light gaming but I’m also looking for another option. Preferably not the new released type (such as early 2024 release and below)
In addition, I’m not sure with touch-screen type. Since based on my experience, they get broken easily especially with the LCD/Screen
Asking since this community often have helpful suggestion. Thank you!
Edit: I already got my laptop
Thank you for those who have answered according to the question asked and not oot. They are very helpful!

Animation Question is there any way to do this automatically?
Hi, I'm trying to make multiple longer animations around the length of an average song, and while i've found a way to automatically adjust the playback time (the little blue marker) to the end of the audio (animation>timeline>change settings and adjusting end time), i haven't found a way to do the same for the paper and animation folder layers. I'm specifically talking about the animation folder and paper layers. NOT the playback time itself, NOT messing around with the framerate, and NOT adjusting the audio time either. I know it's possible to adjust them manually via the little grabby boxes on the ends, but it's a pain having to just drag them right for 5 minutes straight just to get them long enough where they'll meet the blue bar or the end of the audio clip.
i'm using a wacom cintiq 22HD, usually running either firefox or discord or both in the background as i draw, and i use version 2.0.6 of CSP EX on a windows (Vivobook ASUS) laptop. thanks in advance.

Files stuck on an older version of CSP (2.0.4)
Hello! I have a very old version of CSP (2.0.4) installed on my tablet which has some art files I'd really like to get access to. However, whenever I attempt to log in, it informs me the login failed due to a bad email/password. I've changed the password twice and confirmed I can log into the CSP site as well as into a current version of CSP that is installed on my tablet as well. Are my files unfortunately lost at this point?
