🚀 Featured: The All-Improved Manero Brushes has been updated (11/05/25)

•  New monochrome thumbnails: this set previously featured unique full-color thumbnails. Unfortunately, with Procreate 5.4 this is no longer possible, so all thumbnails have been carefully redesigned for clear readability in black & white/greyscale.

The previous version of this update also added the following improvements:

•  Support for Apple Pencil Pro barrel roll (🔄) — or azimuth on other Apple Pencils.

•  Categorized brushes for easier navigation.

•  Minor tweaks for improved precision and performance.

ℹ️ Notes

•  Compatible with Procreate 5.4 and above.
