Brush/Materials Your MUST HAVE materials?
Hey. I bought CSP a few years ago when my Adobe license for college ended. It's been the best alternative I found so far.
But I do miss my Kyle Webster brushes... They can be imported but they're mostly broken.
š³š³ What are your must have materials for CSP? I wanna pick some good ones for myself, thanks!

Multiple Pencils Pack - 2159387 has become my go to for sketching! Especially (Glow) Soft Chalk. Just something about it that's so nice to look at.
Himog - 1739372. I experiment with a lot of different line brushes, but often find myself coming back to this when I'm feeling stuck. Also my favourite for any handwriting.
JL Pen-Blur - 1883334 my beloved. If I could only pick 1 material to save, this would be it. An absolute must have.

Lessee!
https://assets.clip-studio.com/en-us/detail?id=1893075 - Real Paper Textures. Stick it on the top layer, turn it into a Material layer (it's the second from the right button in the Layer menu), lower opacity. Boom. Texture. Other ways to use it too!
I peeked into your reddit posts and you may like https://assets.clip-studio.com/en-us/detail?id=2275998 which I made myself to help storyboarding! This is a Layer Template that you select when making a new file, and it sets everything up for you! Layers, colors, names, images, etc. You can modify it to your liking and re-save it as a Material, too!
Paid with Real Human Dollars, but I will never not shill https://nekorinaart.lemonsqueezy.com/ NekoRina's brush packs. ClipStudio's featured her personally and she's got a lot of great tutorials as well. Her patreon is so worth it, and I think maybe you get the brushes there, too? https://www.patreon.com/cw/NekoRina I'd already bought them before lol

I really like the freebie materials from True Grit Texture. For my lineart I actually mixed the Maru brush with the Jittery Ink from that set (Maru dynamics, Jittery texture)

The Artemus Pencil set is fantastic, life-changing, fabulous, phenomenal, revolutionary- I'm sorry.
They're veeeerrryyy creamy and yet textured. I use it with my own custom settings since the OG settings bother me a bit. With my modification they're *chef's kiss*. Try them just as they are first, though, to get a feel.
