Brief
'Create a set of 3 digital inking brushes with no opacity functionality and that bypass flaws in Photoshop's current pressure system. The three brushes should fit cohesively in a set but differ in texture and shape.'
Research
Again, another in-depth brief which is mainly based around functionality. I wasn't really aware of a flaw in Photoshop's system, so my first job was to find out what it was and try and figure a way out a way around it. This turned out to be surprisingly easy and only took a couple of hours to figure a way around the issue.
I then went on to research inking brushes, as I've not really had much experience with them in the past I needed to find out how they work and what different kinds there are. I made a few marks on paper and went abut replicating them.
Development
Once I had found out about the pens and brushes, I went on to figure out the three different types and textures I would use in the final three. This was relatively easy as I only had to figure out how to get the different textures into the brush whilst only making it a subtle change.
Outcome
The outcome of the brushes were really good. I got a lot of information out of trying to work around problems that were presented by the software. The client was really happy with two of the brushes, however once I had sent of the final drafts, there were a few tweaks which needed to be made to one of them, I actually was pleased that they picked me up on this small mistake as because I am able to sell the brushes afterwards, I'd rather them be perfect. Final outcomes below.
