I cant find a good brush for PS. I want to draw clean lines like these sketches (black ones) but I only get blurried/fat/dirty lines (red ones).

Im using the default brushes but when its the time to do the inking it always becomes the usual fat lines.

Any tips? Any recommended brush? I followed several tutorials out there but everyone seems to like those fat/pressure lines instead of a clean and b/w smooth lineart.

Take a soft round brush and make it very small and have a big canvas (at least 3k pixels in one dimension)

Why don't you focus on getting good and stop worrying about a brush. If you want to do manga style stuff you shouldn't be using PS in the first place.

turn down/off antialiasing

just use any brush and add some pen pressure variation to it?
there is nothing special about those black lines
it's just that adding black here and there and retracing some lines to make them thicker will give off a better impression.and that's what happened with those sketches.

it's not the brush, it's mostly skill related.

All those drawings are resized. Search for some hi-res artwork and you'll notice it doesn't look as good if you look at it closely. I noticed that the 3-4px hard brush tends to be more used.

PS brushes from the artist called "Ray Frenden"


>everyone seems to like those fat/pressure lines instead of a clean and b/w smooth lineart.
Set "minimum brush diameter" (it's called something like that) to something like 20% or 50%, and you'll get less variation in your line weight. This will help you get those thin, uniform-ish lines you're looking for.

you know, when I first started painting digitally you literally couldn't even create brushes. You either had hard/soft round, or hard/soft angled round.

I have been using those same brushes for 10-11 years now.

Your brush doesnt have pen pressure settings on and is generally larger than the black's one
