if you don’t mind me asking, what brushes do you use for your digital art?
i use a mix of Daub and RSCO brushes and the default brushes in affinity. here’s some of them that i use for drawing people, though i have a bunch more

now im not directly suggesting that you buy these brushes, you can get very cool results from just what the program gives you. im just a schmuck with money to waste
i was gonna add a casual, minimally sophisticated drawing showcasing my sketching brush but im incapable of doing anything in moderation so, here you go

btw im self-learned in terms of digital art, so i have some bad habits that sometimes act as a road block in my creative progress. im trying to switch to a more structural method, bc i often get too excited by an idea, scribble something on the screen and slap the foundation on it, realizing only later how hecked up the anatomy and stuff is.
kinda ass to try to unlearn stuff i’ve done for many years but hey evolution requires change
