--Premium Tilt-sensitive Brush Set for Clip Studio Paint--
A FREE sample selection

eXpressure 2 FREE is a small selection of 8 expressive tilt-based brushes for Clip Studio Paint made by me, Živko Kondić Zhillustrator. It's a product of a lot of passionate work and testing, my own original assets, textures, brush tips and brush behaviours. eXpressure 2 is a continuation and a large "DLC" for my original eXpressure set, which had 3 full free updates, more than doubling the original brush quantity and quality. Many of these brushes are used for my personal artwork or sketching, so I hope you will find at least several cool ones to adopt and adapt.

READ BEFORE BUYING:
Requirements:
This brush set **REQUIRES** TILT/ANGLE functionality and most of the presets largely depend on this functionality of your tablet, pen display or graphic tablet. If you're not sure whether your device supports Tilt and Pressure, make sure to check online or in your device documentation and spec sheets.
What to do if your tablet, pen display or device doesn't support tilt but only pressure:
My brush set adaptations labeled NT(No Tilt) or M(Mobile, in development) do not require tilt so I suggest looking for those on my website shop or wherever you are reading this. There are free versions to try.
Compatibility:
This brush set is only compatible with Clip Studio Paint by Celsys. The most current version is used to make them.
Other apps:
This brush set is NOT COMPATIBLE with other apps like Photoshop or Procreate, and I do not have versions of eXpressure for other apps.
Devices and tablets compatibility:
The presets should be completely compatible with iOS or Android versions of Clip Studio Paint *if your iOS or Android device supports Tilt and Pressure*. CSP apps for Android and iOS are quite a good "port" of the program. There can be performance issues on older and weaker devices.
Performance:
I made these brushes on my desktop PC with a strong CPU but very basic graphics card, if used correctly there should be minimal lag or performance issues. Please make sure to read about the best practices in this document.
If you use this set on older tablets and devices, there might be performance issues.
I recommend having your system run on least SSD or best case scenario - on M.2 drives, you will experience a much faster performance in general, both of your PC and Clip Studio Paint. CSP usually installs and writes data on the system drive.
- These brushes were made with Tilt in mind, so instead of resizing your brush the normal way, try just tilting the brush. If you still need a larger brush, make sure to resize it in small increments to avoid performance issues. It takes a bit to get used to it, but I think it's a much more intuitive process for resizing a brush.
- I separately import my brushes into different categories and tool sub groups: import the soft brushes into Airbrush, pencil and crayon brushes into "Pencil" sub group. Splashes and splatters go into Decoration brushes, which I recommend setting a shortcut for, J in my case. This way you will have all the brushes easily available.
- Make your own sub tool groups for favorite brushes and custom categories.
Older versions:
This is a completely new set of brushes, you can download and use it alongside my first eXpressure set. Bundles are or will be offered on my sales platforms.
Patreon perks:
My patrons already had the chance to try many of these brushes, you can sign up at https://www.patreon.com/zhillustrator at the $5 level and get access to any new presets and versions I make.
I hope you will enjoy this brush set!
