Me, I have Krita, and ArtRage, and Sketchbook… I graze a lot. 😁 This has given me all of the amazing things I wanted to do with a tablet. ---

Astonished work. What matcap did you use here? Or was it only a matcap to achieve the outline effect or curvature option in post processing? Or maybe something else? ---

Thanks, guys! @Alex I created a few matcaps to simulate inks. For this last post I also used the paint tool to draw directly into the model, like a variation of the Grease Pencil… 😬 This is the matcap I used: ![McRaven_Inks_Edgedteste 2](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/nomadsculpt/original/2X/a/a3bdb2a6fb9e2110f11ad76094519c23c3ec9b4e.png) Here is the model with a flat Matcap and the lines I painted. The rest of the details were done in Procreate. It’s a very fast way to conceptualise an idea IMHO. ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/nomadsculpt/original/2X/d/d1f96b43cef915427fe2b7fe01ef71031619c747.png) ---

I knew there couldn’t be just a matcap ;–) Thanks for the info. If there could be a one-click solution to draw those lines and simulate a sketch, it would be a blessing. ---

I have my version for 2D look like, I could share if you want maybe can be useful, although I’m not using matcap ---

There are many such options for rendering in ZBrush… of course that is of no use if you don’t use that programme 🙂 ---

This is an awesome thread. Very inspirational! Thank you for sharing. I posted a bunch of matcaps there [My Matcaps](https://forum.nomadsculpt.com/t/my-matcaps/1523/4) First of mine are outlines. Maybe it’s helpful for some. Keep it rocking!!
