The Classic Affinity Comic Ink Brush Pack

This set of custom inking brushes for Affinity Designer and Affinity Photo includes 11 Pixel brushes inspired by vintage comic books. These brushes pay tribute to illustrators like Bob Bugg and Robert Clarke of MAD Magazine. 

Each brush has been custom made to deliver the retro looks you love. Get energetic and expressive lines, lines with a subtle gritty texture, pens that emulate the look of ink bleed effects on cheap newsprint, and more.

Whether you're a professional illustrator looking for a reliable pack of inking brushes or just need them occasionally in graphic design work — these brushes have you covered.

Ink brush set includes:

  • 11 vintage comic ink brushes
  • 6 ink spray stamp brushes
  • All the go-to brushes you need including: classic ink, comic book, dry ink, wet ink, liner brush, fountain pen, runny inker, and more
  • 1 PDF reference guide
  • 1 PDF installation guide

Brushes for inking. These brushes were developed with feedback from professional retro-inspired artists. We also did side-by-side comparisons with archival comic book illustrations to truly capture the look of retro comic inking.

Feel like real inking pens. All the brushes included in the pack are pressure sensitive and optimized for your drawing tablet.

Diverse brushes. Our goal was to make a vintage ink kit that was diverse and includes a wide range of visual tones to use in your work. Here's the brushes included in the pack:

  • Vintage Pen
  • Vintage Fountain Pen
  • Vintage Italic Tip
  • Classic Fountain Pen
  • Classic Ballpoint
  • Smooth Liner (perfect lettering brush)
  • Stub Tip
  • Ramen Brush Pen (possibly the most powerful brush in the pack — used for inking, lettering, ink bleeds, and fills)
  • Felt Tip Brush Pen
  • Runny Fountain Pen
  • Retro Toothy Pen
  • 6 Subtle Ink Spray Stamp Brushes (perfect for adding ink flaws)

    It feels like a traditional pen on paper.

    There are several pen variations available that are perfect for vintage styles. It's like using a pen on paper and doing traditional inking.

    Amped up my Art!

    Before I had bought the Pens for Procreate,I was using the Ink Bleed Brush to Give my art an Old styled Aesthetic.It was fine but had flaws (To loose and thin without much Pressure diversity,Had holes in lines so when filling it in it wouldn’t look complete,Etc) so when I looked out to get a new Brush,I Found RetroSupply.I have been looking into their products and they are just what I needed and the one in particular was their Brush Set.I saw it and ended up buying it.I have been using it ever since.My Favorite is the Ramen Brush,With the right settings and size,it is a Great Inking brush and for Lettering.The quality of my line art was boosted from Ok to Great.They are worth the Purchase and if you know where to look you can get a variety of deals! 11/10 Would buy Again

    I would also consider buying their Edges and Folds Pack later down so they look worn and old (As the style I go for)

    WOW

    I just recently got into digital art after seeing a few videos from Chris Piascik. I'm a professional Art Director and Fine Artist and didn't consider art/illustration on the digital side as it didn't have the same 'feel' as the traditional process. Well, it's a whole new world and I'm all in. Thanks for making such an awesome product!
