We declare war on flat illustrations, as we’re done with lifeless, bland shapes and colors. And while our protest might not be revolutionary enough, we suggest arming with shaders to take flat style to a new level, where you can create gradients, shadows, and depth in illustrations.

This collection is called “Essential” for a reason. It includes 8 Procreate brushes that handle all possible shading tasks. These brushes allow you to blend colors, soften edges, and transition smoothly from light to dark areas, mimicking the natural shading effect found in traditional art. In short, this is a must-have for any creator because you never know when you’ll need to add a couple of shader strokes here and there. Or everywhere, as this collection suits various types of digital art, from character designs and portraits to landscapes and abstract pieces.
