KRAFTTONE

Highly customizable, brush-based process for maximum authenticity. Medium download size and minimal setup required.

• For Novice to Expert Users.
• Brush-based process that closely replicates traditional processes.
• Produces up to 374 colors.
• Dot and line screen color formulas.
• Available for Photoshop, Procreate, Clip Studio + Affinity.
• Pre-separated, ready for screenprinting. 
• Designed for complete customization, including distressing, ink, stain, and registration effects. 
• Download Size: 1.2gb

KraftTone allows for complete control over your effects since each color formula is created from scratch rather than importing pre-composited pattern fills. You can add as much or as little distressing as you like, add stains with one tap and create your own registration errors. It's also very easy to export separations for screenprinting.

Debaser by contrast, has fewer customization options but with distressing and print effects built into each pre-mixed pattern, the colors create an authentic aesthetic with little to no further adjustment necessary.

What Debaser lacks in customization, it makes up for in speed. There is a learning curve to begin with, but once you've mastered the process, it's a little faster to use than KraftTone, especially if you like to change colors on a whim. In Photoshop especially, colors can be changed in seconds, and Procreate is not far behind.

In conclusion, both KraftTone and Debaser have their advantages and it largely comes down to what you are trying to achieve with your work. Many artists use both packs interchangeably depending on the level of customization or speed required and if you can only afford one or the other, you really won't be disappointed either way.

Ryan Besch is a multi-talented designer, low-brow illustrator, and DIY merch maker from Buffalo, NY. Inspired by the taboo underbelly of the cultural landscape, Ryan's work features a cast of unseemly characters, from smoking hotdog-banana's and bird flipping condoms to sweaty gimp mask dungeon-masters and cigarette smoking foods.

Mostly working in pen, brush and ink, Ryan's illustration work reflects his love of  vintage comics and low-brow humor whilst his graphic design and poster work is a masterclass in textural witchcraft and screen-printed aesthetics.

With an impressive list of clients including Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, The Kills, Phish, The Black Keys and Nitro Snowboards, Ryan still finds time to work on his self-published range of t-shirts, posters, stickers and pins under his brand Weird Sin Industries.
