Vintage Engraved Patterns

While the Artifex Forge offers some successful (and very useful!) Illustrator brush sets, even digitally drawing realistic, vintage artwork can be time-consuming and fiddly. So, why not try a new way to easily create your authentic-looking, etched illustrations with this incredibly realistic set of engraved, repeat patterns? This nifty short-cut is so simple to use - just layer the patterns at different rotations to create hatching and build up shading. And if that wasn’t easy enough, I’ve also supplied each of the patterns at different rotations as one-click graphic styles (at 90, 22.5, -22.5, 45 and -45 degrees) to further reduce the time it takes to create your vintage art!
