SKETCH TO BRUSHES: Comic-book inking, no inking degree required. Real comic art gets its depth from a hierarchy — bold outer contour, fine interior detail, nothing in between left flat. Sixteen presets bake that hierarchy straight into your sketch-to-ink conversion, so your linework has real visual weight without you touching a shading brush.
