FREE - Blender Grease Pencil Brush Pack
Added 2024-03-25 20:46:09 +0000 UTCHey!
UPDATE Oct 8, 2024: This brush pack is intended for Grease Pencil 2, not Grease Pencil 3 which was released with Blender 4.3 BETA. Please do not expect these to work in Blender 4.3, I am in the process of learning how to mark them as assets to be able to share them so they behave as intended.
These are image textured base brushes for Grease Pencil in Blender. These brushes currently work for Blender 3.5 to 4.2 with GP2.
They took a long time to develop so I hope you find them fun and useful. They are primarily focused for storyboarding but are also great for character sketching.
The Stamp brushes are using images of trees I took or custom made leaf drawings in Photoshop and then imported as image textures into Blender. The stamp brushes can also be adjusted to use the Color Attribute setting and then you can change the hue randomization to get different values which add contrast to your scenes.
The brush pack is free but I always appreciate a coffee donation! I plan to continue adding to the brush pack with additional stamp brushes ahead of GP3 release.
Please note that you have to be in Textured or Rendered view to see the textures. If you are in Solid view then you need to select the Texture option under Color Attribute in the Viewport Shading settings.
Happy drawing!

Adding GP 3.0 Brushes to your Asset Browser for Blender 4.3 and up
There’s two ways to add the GP 3.0 Brushes to your Asset Library:
Save the MV_GP_Brushes_for_4.3.blend file in the Blender Brush folder under Program files (win: Program Files > Blender Foundation > 4.3 (or w/e version you're on) > 4.3 > datafiles > assets > brushes
Save the MV_GP_Brushes_for_4.3.blend file where you keep other asset libraries and add that folder path to the Asset Libraries File Path
