One of the great benefits of working with the best designers and illustrators in the industry is that you can collaborate with them! Friend of the "family", Von Glitschka, developed an exclusive set of brushes for all our Astute Manager users. In this quick tip tutorial we're going to show you how to use these brushes with DynamicSketch.

How to download and import Brush Sets

  • This exclusive Glitschka Studio Brush Set is available to download from your Astute Manager.

  • Inside Astute Manager, navigate to the Astute Library > Brush Sets page.

  • Use the orange button to Download and Install the pack directly into your Illustrator Brush Library Folder.

  • Open your Adobe Illustrator, and open the Brushes panel inside Illustrator. To find it, navigate to Window > Brushes.

  • Click the Brushes Libraries Menu button in the bottom left, and under the User Defined > ... menu you will see your newly installed Brush Set.

  • A new Brush Set Window will open with previews of your new brushes. Each time you select one it will be added to your main Brushes Panel.

Using your Glitschka Studio Brush Set

  • Select one of your Glitschka Studio brushes from the Brush Window.

  • Open up DynamicSketch Panel by navigating to Window > Astute Graphics > DynamicSketch.
