Access All Areas have a colourful collection of old school tattoo inspired vector illustrations to download this week, courtesy of Bad Taste. This Love Edition of tattoo elements focuses on hearts, flowers and birds, making the assets perfect for creating stylish Valentine’s Day themed artwork. Each pre-made design is available in AI and EPS format, plus 6 seamless patterns and a total of 33 objects that have been exported as individual SVG and PNG graphics.
I’ve given away plenty of Photoshop Actions here on Spoon Graphics, but so far I haven’t shown as much love to Lightroom. Adobe Lightroom is becoming increasingly popular as the go-to photo processing tool. Just like with Photoshop Actions, you can save a series of adjustments as a preset, which can be used to instantly apply cool effects to your images with just a single click. Download this collection of 12 Cinematic Lightroom Presets to transform your photographs with various contrast and colour alterations. They’re all based on the colour grading aesthetics of popular movie genres, such as Horror, Western, Action, Romantic and more. The visual styles of these films are usually seen on the big screen, but we can replicate similar looks within still images with the help of these preset image adjustments.
I’ve been sending myself dotty creating my latest design resources for you to download! Hours upon hours have been spent tediously placing hundreds of circular dots to produce a selection of pattern swatches you can use to easily add interesting backgrounds to your designs. Available in vector AI & EPS formats; PNG images with and without transparent backgrounds; and a Photoshop Pattern library, they’re conveniently ready for use in a variety of design applications.
Access All Areas members have a useful Photoshop mockup template to download this week, courtesy of Moonlit Mocks. This mockup features a genuine Bella + Canvas 3001 t-shirt in all 94 colours the real product is supplied in, including heather and prism fabric options. It is professionally shot at 4K resolution on a real model in the real world to provide the most realistic mockup template possible. This mockup template is created with displacement maps to make sure your artwork looks natural over every wrinkle, curve, and detail. Simply place your design in the smart object artwork layer, select your chosen shirt colour, save out the photo and you’re done!
Access All Areas members have a collection of joyful hand lettering graphics to download this week, courtesy of Freepik. These New Year letterings all feature a seasonal ‘Happy New Year’ greeting in a variety of type styles, complemented by decorative graphics. Easily create card prints or online promotions by using these ready-made designs, or break apart the artwork and use the individual assets in your custom illustrations.
