Photoshop Brushes

By: Chris Murphy

Since this is a new year, and it is always fun to start the new year off with something fresh, I thought I would offer up some of my resources to designers and illustrators out there. Like many others designers in my industry, I keep a resource folder on my system with loads of useful (and sometimes not so useful) reference material, swatches, brushes, etc.

It has gotten to the point where I had to do some early spring cleaning in order to make room for more. In the process, I discovered some forgotten items that I think many of you will find quite useful. So, as I have said, I will offer some of these up for download over the next month or so.

The first is a series of Photoshop Brushes; these I found a while back. I dabble in digital illustration and it is always nice to have different bushes for painting certain things and also for adding texture and definition to your paintings. I’ve used these brushes on occasion in other non-illustration projects for the sole purpose of adding texture or creating more natural looking texture on otherwise flat images.

Here is a sample of some of the brushes:

Follow standard practices for installing brushes. More to come!

Update: I neglected to mention the source of these brushes, and though I would love to claim ownership, that credit belongs to the artists who provided the brushes here. My apologies!

    I really wish I could be this productive on a whim :/
