The other day I came across a neat collection of “Heraldry Brushes” by “MrTentacleGuy” on deviantART. I was disappointed to find out that the “brushes” were actually in vector format and while great for resizing and maintaining their original integrity in Illustrator, not very handy for quick and dirty Photoshop work where a brush set (.abr) is all you really want.
So I took his heraldry vector collection and made it into a brush set. I’m releasing it under the same Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License. Here is a little sample I threw together using the new brushes (sorry the red background is not part of the set).

There are over 70 high resolution brushes in this set! If you use it, please leave a comment and don’t hesitate to link back to your work as well.

Check out The Missing Link flash creation by interactive media artist Masayuki Kido. This is really cool. I don’t really have the words to summarize other than to say, it’s a series of silhouettes that appear and with the click of the mouse you can interact with them to see a near narrative unfold itself dynamically. I found it extremely compelling.
You might also want to check out Pictaps, another flash based diversion, on the same site, that allows you to draw a character, and then watch him dance to a silly song.

Here’s some photoshop artwork that I made today. I was just playing around with the brushes and then decided I would keep the end product.

For your viewing pleasure, here is some original artwork I did for an online stock photo place, but unfortunately it got denied because I did it in Photoshop instead of Illustrator and well, long story short: it’s the wrong format.
But what’s bad for me is good for you, because now I’m just going to post it here! Enjoy:

I just finished up another vector illustration this morning. I tried something new by adding more blur on the background layers of the image as they go further away from the viewer. I like the effect, but I wonder if it’s too distracting?

I spent the afternoon making this cartoon scene in Photoshop. It’s mostly vector shapes with some brush strokes for highlights and shadows. The design of the girl is based off an image I found on the net.
