31 Water-Based Marker Brushes for Procreate: a $10 complete workflow brush set for marker-style illustration
If you draw in Procreate and keep drifting between loose pencil-style marks, hard marker fills, and tiny detail passes, a single workflow set can save you from rebuilding the same brush logic every session. Shuisong’s 31 Water-Based Marker Brushes for Procreate is built around that exact hand-drawn marker feel: sketch, line art, coloring, details, and print texture in one import. At $10, it is cheap enough to try if your current brushes are making flat fills muddy or your line work feel inconsistent. The question is whether the set gives you enough coverage to carry a piece from rough shape to finished accent without hunting for another tool halfway through. If you want a marker-style foundation that is broad enough for color blocking and fine enough for highlights, this is worth a close look.

What you’re actually buying
The core of the marker brush set is 31 main brushes organized by the job they do in a piece. Seven sketch and line art brushes handle drafting, clean line work, and the first pass of shape. Five round-tip marker brushes are aimed at smooth coloring, lettering, and more expressive strokes, while nine chisel-tip marker brushes cover broad strokes, flat fills, and the kind of authentic marker effect that makes an illustration feel hand-finished. Seven detail and accent brushes add highlights, textures, decorative elements, and finishing touches, and three print texture brushes bring grain and vintage-style printing effects into the final layer.
What makes the set useful is not just the number of brushes, but the way the categories line up with a real illustration process. You can start with a sketch brush, tighten the line, block color with a chisel tip, add round-tip accents, then finish with detail marks and paper texture without switching to a completely different visual language. That is especially helpful for marker-style editorial art, book illustrations, stickers, personal comics, or client work where the piece needs to feel consistent from thumbnail to final file.
The bonus layer adds 11 high-resolution paper texture brushes and 5 exclusive hidden marker brushes, which expands the set beyond the main workflow. Paper texture can make flat color feel less sterile, while hidden marker brushes give you extra stroke behavior for experiments, quick sketches, or accents that need a different hand. The set also includes lifetime free updates and a commercial license for artwork, so you can use pieces created with the brushes for personal and commercial projects. The boundary is clear: the brush files themselves cannot be redistributed, resold, shared, or transferred.
Why it’s on our radar
The public page shows 7 ratings averaging 5.0 out of 5. There is no sales count shown on the public page. That is a small but clean signal for a $10 Procreate brush set.
What actually matters
Before you buy, make sure the set fits your actual setup and style. It is built for Procreate, and the setup note says to make sure you have an iPad, Procreate, and Apple Pencil. If you draw on another platform, this is not the right import.
Also check the file details: the set ships as a .brushset file around 114 MB, so you should have enough space and know how to import brush sets in your version of Procreate. The commercial license terms are straightforward if you make client work, printables, or portfolio pieces: artwork created with the brushes can be used commercially, but the brush files themselves cannot be redistributed, resold, shared, or transferred.
Finally, match the style to your work. If you want water-based marker effects, flat fills, line art, and print texture, this is a strong fit; if you need wet watercolor blooms, oil pastel, or 3D-style shading, look elsewhere.

Bottom line
If you want a low-cost way to standardize your Procreate marker workflow, this set makes sense because it covers the stages most brush sets miss: clean line, broad fill, detail accent, and paper/print texture in one import. It is not a magic fix for every illustration style, but for marker-based work, the $10 price is easy to justify if the brush types match your usual process. Before buying, confirm your Procreate setup and license notes, then decide whether the set fits your next piece. See current options if you want to review the final file details and price.
