Old Cars Grungy Brush

I can’t take credit for the photos used in this brush. Just some beat down classic cars I found on flickr. Old cars lend themselves to grunge brushes… hope you enjoy.

Blueprint / Schematic Photoshop Brush

I always felt like old blueprints made the best grunge effects so I decided to scour the web and find some great images with which to make brushes. I went ahead and grunged them all up for you. These were made in Photoshop CS2 so I’m not sure if they will work in PS7.

Old Building Photoshop Brush

This building was too creeepy to NOT use it for a brush. The last few of my brushes were created in Photoshop CS2 and are only compatible with CS2, sorry PS7 users. I’m working on getting them converted.

Ragged Books Photoshop Brush

Every now and then I get lucky when I’m out looking for crap to waste money on. A few years back I dropped a couple bucks on some old books that just looked cool. I don’t know why I bought them. Maybe I was an interior decorator at heart and subconsciously knew these would go great with my future antique curtains and wall treatments…

Well anyway, as luck would have it they turned out making great Photoshop Brushes. I had a little photo session today to get them all archived. If anyone wants color originals of these files let me know.

Backyard Textures Photoshop Brush

I was bored so I took a few shots of my jacked up landscapeless backyard. Looks like the serengeti out there. Anyway, a dried up lifeless backyard makes for some good textures. Click the image above to view a sample and the filename below to download.

Hibiscus Photoshop Brush #2

Due to popular demand I’ve created a 2nd hibiscus Photoshop brush. This brush includes many different flavors and styles not seen in my first version. Let me just say as a disclaimer that I did not create the base hibiscus images, I just added a couple grungy touches here or there and converted them to brush form. Please do not use these for commercial purposes. Thanks.

UPDATE: I now have a Photoshop 7 version of this brush for those of you who don’t have CS quite yet. You can click the link below to download.

Super Mario 3 Photoshop Brush

Little somethin for my late 80’s early 90’s peeps out there. Mario Brothers 3 was the all time greatest game for the NES. What better way to carry on the Mario legacy than to pass it on in Photoshop Brush form? The image in this post includes every brush in this set. From jumping Mario, standing Mario, walls, turtles, etc…. It’s all there. Enjoy.

Grunge Brush #2

Grunge#2 is a bit more of a creepy grunge than the previous GrungySteel, even though one of the images I used was the remnants of a bowl of cocoa puffs in the sink, I’ll let you figure out which one I’m talking about.
