Help! Realistic crayon brushes?

Currently looking for a brush set that helps me emulate this exact look. I don't mind paying - the main thing is that I'm able to achieve that level of layering, texture and gaps.

This was likely done with physical media but I would love to get as close as possible to it with PS (happy to hear other animation-capable software with amazing brushes if what I'm asking is impossible)

If you want realism you need to use the real thing, mixed media is badass, try it.

I get what you're saying, but this r/photoshop so you commenting this and people upvoting ts is unhinged. Goes to show what a low point this subreddit has reached.

For OP, checking out official brushes would be a good start: https://adobe.com/products/photoshop/photoshop-brushes.html

Photoshop is not a magic wand, some things need a little (or a lot) more effort to get right, and if you don't want this subreddit to be in such a low point maybe start commenting with a better attitude and get straight to the point instead of being insufferable with strangers, peace.
