• The brushes are available as both Tool Presets (TPL files) and ABR files, and require Photoshop CS 5 or higher to work.
• The 7 Mixer brushes may not work with anything less than Photoshop CC (though I am not sure about this)

    Is this a CS5 version and up?

    • Nicolai

      That’s right! They work with Photoshop CS5 and up to the latest version

  2. Adena (verified owner)

    This is a fantastic brush set, and it will be incredibly useful for creating backgrounds and textures for my projects. I would also like to add that I don’t own a tablet, but these brushes still work very well for me with just a mouse. Thank you!

  3. kingsb (verified owner)

    The Pre-sale was a wonderful bargain and so are the brushes! They are great fun to play with. I can’t imagine how you even named them!
    Thanks for all your hard work.

    Fantastic value — the best brushes I’ve ever used in Photoshop!!!

  5. digitalladysyd (verified owner)

    So I thought your Cloud brushes were the best set of brushes I have ever used (still love them!). Then I got these spatter brushes and they are just wonderful! I am big into creating background textures and adding subtle grunge effects into my images. By just playing around with these brushes and blending the colors on top of each other, some great effects are created! These brushes are just total fun for painting and are definitely worth getting!

    After a first look’n’play it seems to become a lot of fun with Splatter Brushes. But not only fun, they are marvelous and after a while of investigation they’ll surely become an important part to my illustration workflow i guess. Great for environment/structures and? don’t know right now, future will show.
    Short: Recommendation!!!
