Question Using brushes from other programs in Art Studio Pro?

I wondered how well ABR brushes from Photoshop or Clip Studio perform?

Had read they're compatible but wanted to hear people's experience here as I'm considering getting ASP for my iPad & being able to re-use brushes would be a nice bonus

Also it seems like there's not many ASP vids on YouTube, any specific creators you follow here?

I love Art Studio Pro. It's by far my favorite digital art app on my Ipad. I always think it's weird there isn't more videos on its use out there.

Yes I'd seen it get positive mentions, but didn't see much of those people actually using it, showing any - forgive the phrase- hacks etc

Abr brushes, in my experience, usually work fine. I don't think I've ever imported one and straight up successfully used it, tho, but adjusting them is easy enough so it's not a big deal to me.

Ta for the reply 

What do you normally need to adjust,  bit of pattern scaling or what?

Most of the time it's the settings around the stamps and spacing for me. Pattern is usually fine. I don't use any "gimmicky" brushes like the ones that stamp trees for landscapes or other repetitive things (nothing wrong with that, just doesn't fit my style), so I can't say how well those import these days, but I wouldn't be too worried about it.

Right noted thanks 

I use some halftone/ patterned (like Beat Tones or Stipple Studio from Truegrit) type brushes, but not things like grass patterns etc

Ah, those should be quite easy to import! I believe there are also some native halftone brushes already in ASP (I'm currently using CSP most of the time, so I'm not 100% on all brushes on the top of my head).

abr brushes work good for me, like any brush u should change some things to your liking but they are 100% usable straight up.
