Vintage Lines - Vector Brushes (Free)

[EngraverHand]

Im not sure how useful or good they are, but I made some vector brushes.. useful for me, and if anyone can use them, here you go :-) 

i made them for the love of vintage lettering styles, and I use it for backgrounds, like the old Sanborn Maps style.. 

Anyway, as I’m quite new to brush making, I’m sure they can be improved, and if I do, I’ll update them here :-) 

hope it it will be useful for some :-) and they can be downloaded from here.. 

feel free to give feedback.. good or bad is welcome as long as it is constructive:-)

I see now they can need a little more work... but I’ll fix, and update or maybe make a version 2.. I see some lines can be a little static.. so I’ll figure out how to make it better. 

But they can be pretty cool for vintage shadowing too... :-)

Nice textures, but we can see some patterns repeating (lines 3 & 4).

[EngraverHand]

Yea I saw that too.. :-) I’ll make more and better :-) stay tuned.. 

Thanks a lot for trying, testing and feedback!! :-)

Do not have AD, so also no vector bushes. (The only thing i miss in AP, beside symbols/mirror-"curves" and the "asset organistaion of "elements").

I know, it will not work so precise as raster-brush, bur could also offer just the clear base-png in a good resolution? I do not mean 2000+++pix, i mean the opposite, the last "small" resolution where it looks unblurry!

Thanks!

[EngraverHand]

We’ll see what I can come up with.. :-) I’m sure they will offer assets in AP in the future tho, and that would be interesting! 

Anyway, I’m redesigning, and making more and better brushes.. it takes a little time tho. 

I’m not sure what they are called in English, but also designing and making some “frame” line brushes, which is often used in those old signs/posters, like these.. (still just on a sketch) :-) 

I have so many ideas now.. :-) 

thanks for feedback!

Great, I love it.

Many thanks for those brushes. 

[EngraverHand]

More than welcome! :-) Glad I can contribute:-) Stay tuned, and I’ll make some more and better :-) 

[EngraverHand]

This is too much fun! :-) I forget to do my real job.. 

Still sketches and learning a lot! :-) 

Stay cool! :-) 

[EngraverHand]

A little more of some im working on, beside the shadowing lines.. does it look interesting? :-) I have a lot more too.. 

[EngraverHand]

Or maybe it’s a waste of time?

It “sounds” like there is better ways to spend my energy.. :-) which is fair enough as I have a lot of learning to put my has on.. maybe some other time :-) 

[JenPeepshow]

Thanks for your efforts :-)

[Pepperdog2]

Keep up the good work I love anything that is "deco".

Thanks

Trying to design some more vintage style assets.. 

[EngraverHand]

A little more in my research for achieving the Victorian style.. 

Three layers of different shadowing, but with the same lines.. hatching and crosshatching :-)

Thank you! Looking forward to it.  

[Didacticus]

Any news? Are they updated?

[EngraverHand]

No I’m sorry it’s not.. I made a pair I use my self in assets but never got around to really finish due to too many other projects.. would love to do it but struggle to find the time these days.. 

[No more PS]

Thanks for these great brushes. Really great!
