If you’ve ever used a palette knife to spread printer’s ink on a palette or a plate of glass this brush may feel familiar to you.  Flux Ebber is a tremendously wet, heavily loaded ink brush that quickly covers with opaque ink but can be wiped off and ‘squeegied’ around as long as you don’t lift your stylus which effectively dries the stroke. The brush is lightly weighted to one edge to give it slight directional characteristics.

As always, you can download this brush for free until the end of this week (June 15th) when there will be yet another new free brush.

Free Photoshop Brush of the Week #11 “Lip Reader” Ink Brush

“Lip Reader” is a rough edged Photoshop ink brush with a wide ranging width. At the lowest pressure this brush gives an intermittent spotty line and at maximum pressure it has a wide line with a subtle but visible wet, bleeding edge that borders a ragged contour.  This brush is a line brush but as you see here, you can also use it at a much larger size than it is designed for to block in larger areas of colour. By setting a lyer to ‘Multiply’ it can also behave more like a watercolour brush.

As always, you can download it for free until the end of this week (June 15th) when there will be yet another new free brush.

A cloudy-textured brush which starts out as a soft shader with light stylus pressure but ends up very opaque at the highest pressure. The Soggy Tail natural media brush has the look of a watercolour and even bleeds a bit into the paper at its edges if you hold it almost steady in a spot, but has the opacity of an oil pastel.[/twocol_one_last]

A soft oil brush with a fairly wide opacity range and a medium amount of range in width from minimum to maximum stylus pressure. At low pressure, this brush has a more dilute fill than some of the other more pasty opaque oil brushes which makes it a more subtle tone brush but still with the signature oily blotchiness and at the highest pressure it has a sharp crisp edge.[/twocol_one_last]

As always, you can download it from the shop or the member’s free Photoshop brush page for free until the end of this week (May 3) when there will be a new free brush.

New in the store today, Roadside Tip is a rough granular charcoal which starts with a powdery coverage at the lightest pressure and moves into a wetter, almost oily grit fill at higher pressure. Though the square shaped tip scales with pressure this brush is best suited to broad gestural sketches or strong tonal blocking.[/twocol_one_last] Facebooktwitterredditpinterestlinkedinmail

Free Brush of the Week #04 “Wool Meander”

A grainy charcoal type Photoshop brush with a fairly wide range in both width and coverage. At the lightest pressure this brush is capable of very light, fine-grained middling width sketch line and even at medium pressure can be quite a versatile shader brush, capable of a wide range of tones. At full pressure you get a harsh, fully opaque line with a large grain and a crumbly edge.
