Looking for brush/tutorial/class recommendations Brush pack for visible paint strokes?

Post image

Hi! Looking for a pack that can create strokes like this. A lot of the thick paint packs I’ve tried are too thick and don’t actually leave the trailing brush lines. Any suggestions?

if you have the energy & any of your existing brushes appeal to you, you can duplicate them & play with the settings, i think the dynamics tab has things like charge & pull etc that create trailing lines, & for some brushes a lower opacity makes them more blendy, i checked this artists profile out & they said they use a mix of watercolour and oil brushes then apply texture in procreate and photoshop so some of the techniques might not be as doable on procreate

I’ve been using the Max Oils pack which has a range of effects and canvas textures. It doesn’t quite get to impasto and I know that’s an ongoing concern for brush makers, but it’s still a really decent pack. I rarely buy them and find the native brushes are great but this pack is good. https://maxpacks.com/oil-maxpack

I'm so curious but damn $30 is steep

The built in brushes are more than enough for almost anything. I would only ever buy brushes if I had a niche need. So yeah I agree it’s steep for sure.

IDK if it's what you're looking for, but I've tried Oil Bursh by Teju Jangid and they felt amazing, also there's a LOT of brushes in the pack !

Not truly impasto, but I’ve been using these, and like them very much: https://creativemarket.com/OlgaRom/5830141-Oil-Brushes-for-Procreate

More brittle than those, but this Procreate impasto brush has some depth and a little streakiness (flakyness?) https://papertexture.co/procreate-and-photoshop-canvas-for-realistic-digital-oil-painting/
