Illustrator, Photoshop, Affinity and Procreate Brushes at Artifex Forge

Artifex Forge is proud to present Rope & String Brushes for Affinity – the most life-like set of rope, string, baker’s twine and rustic twine brushes ever made! All are sourced from the real thing and retain the quirky qualities of rope and string. Simply use a mouse of stylus to draw the rope and string with Affinity’s Path Brush tool – it’s that easy.

On your behalf, the Artifex Forge has been building up a now extensive rope and string collection, all to get the right samples to turn into the perfect vector brushes. These flexible vector rope and string brushes are perfect for a variety of projects and themes including, but not limited to, food packaging, craft projects, wedding designs, rustic gift-ware or nautical.

You can also make your own re-posable rope items – something that rope graphics just don’t allow for.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars based on 3 customer reviews.
These are very good (5 star), especially when you add color and blackpoint. The instructions are for V1 Affinity, so some understanding of V1 vs V2 UI helps in the install. In a way, it behaves like real rope when you set draw size to max, then draw. There is a lag that translates to rope misbehavior. You stop and the end you are pulling kinda keeps jumping around, like it is unkinking itself. As with any line, toss in a few nodes and drag it straight, or curl it up. Exceeded my expectations! Far better results than rope I get from Chat at OpenAI

This is a real rope, and I'm not kidding ! You can twist it, turn it, wrap it around, make it a knot, make an alphabet, whatever you do in physical real rope. I was amazed !

This is the only, one of a kind rope in the design world. I have never seen a brush rope like this before.

Take my word, for 15 dollars, you will regret if you will not own this real rope brushes.
