You should try out some eroded or grunge brushes for that look. - Or some vector edges ...

• Vector grunge edges
• grunge edges
• another one
• etc.

i hope this is not much of a bother, but how do i apply them to get what i want ?

For those edges you need to load the EPS file and select & group together the relevant edge curves of your interest (I know a tedious work since they sadly aren't seperated, aka not already single grouped). Next you would position them onto an edge of your drawing and perform a layer division blend mode etc. in order to get the subtracted effect.

So something like ...

• ecken.afdesign

However, that's one procedure for those ready made vector edges.

Though it might be better instead to have some vector brushes which you can apply on your own vector drawings then instead, so you can draw with a sized brush over your drawing edges to get then such an effect. - You have to try out what works better for you!

Also it depends if you primary draw with vectors or bitmap pixel layers here.
