HOLD UP! THIS THING ACTUALLY HAS SOME IMPORTANT INFORMATION. YOU SHOULD REALLY READ IT!


First off, the download button WILL NOT download the brushes! It only downloads the textures you need to use them! You have to actually create the brushes in SAI.

:bulletyellow:To make a new brush/tool in Paint Tool SAI:bulletyellow:
- Right click on any empty space in your toolkit
- Select the kind of brush you want
- Change the settings as necessary (don't forget about the Advanced Settings)
- Double-click on the new icon to bring up more options: rename, add a description, set a hotkey, and more
- Use and enjoy your new tool/brush c:

The Brushes and Their Types
AKA, select the "type" in quotations to make the brush you want
- Line Pen - "Pencil" << ALSO! For this pen, you need to have the "edge shape" (right above the brush settings) on the first one (kinda triangle-shaped)
- Cloud - "Watercol"
- Hair - "Brush"
- Water Pen - "Pencil" << ALSO! For this pen, you need to have the "edge shape" (right above the brush settings) on the first one (kinda triangle-shaped)
- Water Pen Smudge - "Watercol" << ALSO! For this pen, you need to have the "edge shape" (right above the brush settings) on the first one (kinda triangle-shaped)

:bulletyellow: PLEASE READ IF YOU'RE HAVING PROBLEMS USING THESE BRUSHES!!! :bulletyellow:
Check these things first before you comment:
:bulletred: Are you using a mouse or a tablet?
- If you're using a mouse, just give up now. These are pressure-sensitive brushes and you won't get the same results without a pressure-sensitive tablet.
:bulletred: What brand of tablet are you using?
- IF YOU'RE USING ANY LINE OF WACOM TABLETS, PLEASE TRY REINSTALLING YOUR DRIVERS FROM THE WEBSITE BEFORE YOU ASK FOR HELP! Reinstalling drivers usually fixes the problem.
:bulletred: Is your pressure sensitivity on?
- Check this by testing it out on one of SAI's default brushes (like "Pen"); if the line doesn't change thickness, then it's not working properly.
- TO FIX THIS:
* Close out of SAI and start it up again
* Reinstall your tablet drivers if that doesn't work (especially if you're using a Wacom)

Final Note: You really don't have to have the settings EXACTLY as I do. Play around with your settings. Don't see this as a "omg you have to do this EXACTLY THE WAY I HAVE", but instead as a guide to help you play around with your SAI settings. Feel free to change these brushes to however you want.

It came with my version of SAI. I included it in the .zip file download. Just click the "download" button over on the right-hand side.

Try opening SAI again after you restart your computer. And did you copy them to the correct folders? That's really all I can say.
