Can I use them on commercial projects?

Of course, you don't have restrictions about the usage of this brushes, you are totally free to use on your projects for clients or your personal works.It would help me a lot, (and I'm always happy to see new artworks using my resources), adding a mention ( @syntetyc ) if you publish an artwork where you used the brushes. But is not required, is up to you.

What skills do I need to use them?

These aren't brushes for stamping or patterns; they're brushes that simulate traditional techniques, such as brushstroke painting and gouache. 

These are brushes you can use to learn how to paint and even create professional-quality work like what you see in my portfolio. In other words, you won’t automatically paint grass or have an anime-style tree appear with just two brushstrokes; they require a minimum of dedication, patience, and practice.

That’s why on my YouTube channel you can watch many videos of the processes behind my illustrations, at all levels of difficulty, using these brushes.

Why are free?

The brushes are free because I believe in free resources for learning and improving artistic skills.As I’ve grown as an illustrator and designer, I’ve learned a lot from the free content shared by great artists and illustrators, so I want to do my part.

Are there any restrictions on use?

Just logical restrictions, like don’t selling it, or include in other brush sets, but is something I can’t control, so I really don’t care. 😂

Are there differences in how they are used in different applications?

Each drawing software have its own brush engine, its own render engine and its own characteristics. Not all of them has the exact same brush adjustments, so I’ve made a hard work on giving the most similar behavior in all applications.

Even so, there are slight differences in how the various applications are used. It’s normal for brushes with more texture to look slightly different from one application to another, or for the stroke behavior to vary as well. This isn’t a bug, but simply a result of each drawing program’s engine.
