What's Inside
- 21 scratchy rake texture brushes
- Pressure sensitive and monoline options
- Range of textures from fine to coarse
- Works on all iPad sizes
How the Brushes Work
Each brush creates multiple parallel lines with a scratchy, raked texture. The strokes respond to pressure and tilt, giving you control over line weight and coverage. Layer strokes to build up texture and depth. The scratchy quality comes through in every mark, adding visual interest without extra work.
Brush Styles
The set covers a range of rake textures from tight, fine scratches to loose, coarse strokes. Some brushes give you clean, even rakes while others have more irregular, organic gaps and variations. Good for mixing and matching depending on the look you're going for.
Who This Is For
Illustrators and artists who want to add texture and energy to their digital work. Good for expressive sketches, textured backgrounds, hatching and shading, or anywhere you want that hand-scratched quality. The rake effect lets you cover area quickly while keeping things visually interesting.
What You Need

Why These Are Different
I built these because I wanted that raked, scratchy look without manually drawing dozens of parallel lines. The textures are organic and varied, not perfectly mechanical. They add grit and character that makes digital work feel less sterile.
