Grit for life.

I already had this product for Photoshop but didn’t realize I didn’t have it for CSP. I was working on a short comic in CSP, and decided to buy beat tones for it—even though I could’ve just exported to PSD and used them there.

THAT is how much I recommend TGTS, for EACH program (besides, some of the brushes have their own respective properties and behavior in each program as well :)

Buying this again

One of my favorite TGTS tools, I had it for Photoshop but I've lately gotten more into Procreate, so I'm buying it again! This has possibly the most variety of any kit from TGTS. So many possibilities across so many styles. When I need to experiment or try something new, this is my goto.
