Studio Pencils for Affinity

A COMPLETE PENCIL STUDIO FOR AFFINITY

Classic methods. Modern tools. Studio Pencils turns Affinity into a full traditional drawing studio with 60 brushes: hard and soft lead pencils, hatchers, shaders, fillers, blenders, and erasers, all built to work together in one document.

Every grain, edge, and broken mark comes from real drawing tools, rebuilt as pressure sensitive Affinity brushes that respond to tilt and pressure the way graphite does. Sketch, render, and refine with lines and shading that read as pencil on paper, not digital plastic.

Import the .afbrushes set once and the whole system lives in your Affinity brush panel, ready for sketching, comping, editorial illustration, and finished pencil renderings.

Everything you need for natural pencil drawing in Affinity.

• The right lead for the job. 10 hard lead and 10 soft lead pencils, from crisp mechanical lines to rich, smoky darks, so you always have the right pencil in hand.
• Expressive hatching in one stroke. 10 hatchers in classic, light, scribble, messy, and broken styles, each in vertical and horizontal versions, lay down convincing hand hatched tone fast.
• Smooth, natural shading. 10 shaders from soft and cloudy to gritty and scratchy build tone the way real graphite does.
• Real texture, less time. 10 pencil fillers block in shadows, backgrounds, and textured areas with ready made pencil grains.
• Finish like you would on paper. 5 blenders (including a classic stump) and 5 erasers let you soften, smudge, and pull back marks naturally.
• Made from real marks. Created from real life pencils and charcoal, so the imperfections read as drawn, not rendered.
• Tuned for an Affinity workflow. Built and tested with pen tablets and pen displays, so pressure, tilt, and opacity behave predictably at any canvas size.
• 3 paper textures. Fine Fiber, Eggshell, and FineKraft surfaces give your drawings an authentic sheet of paper to live on.

We didn't just make another Affinity pencil brush.

Most pencil brushes are one-offs: a single nice lead with no supporting cast. You end up faking hatching, tone, and texture with tools that were never built for them, or stacking brushes from five different packs that don't share a language.

Studio Pencils is a complete toolkit. Pencils, hatchers, shaders, fillers, blenders, and erasers are tuned to work together, so you can take a drawing from light sketch to fully rendered illustration without ever leaving the set or leaving Affinity.
