Pixel art brushes?
on: February 24, 2023, 09:25:14 AM
I’ve been interested in doing some pixel art as of lately and I’ve noticed that the brush strokes look kind of soft? Here’s what I mean;

The brush they use are singular pixel? Meaning there’s no soft like edges around it. When I do it there’s soft edges. Making the line look fuzzy, I don’t want the fuzzy look but I don’t know how to get rid of it. Any help?

Figured it out.  8) I downloaded a free pixel brush pack in .abr format and messed around with the settings. All you need to do is make sure that the “Hard Edges” setting is enabled. I attached the screenshot in case you don’t know where the setting is. Hope this helps you!

For more precision you can enable the pixel grid by going to view > show > show pixel grid, you can then zoom in till you see the grid.
