Free Illustrator Brushes and Vectors: Foliage

Its that time again. Illustrator Brushes! You might recognize a few of these from this free vector set. These are some foliage Illustrator brushes I used to make the that set of freebies, along with a lot of new ones. So, theoretically, you could take these brushes and make your own set of free foliage vectors. The possibilities are endless with this set because I also included the simpler brushes that the more complex ones are comprised of. I also included AI, SVG, and EPS, for InkScape users, or anyone else who doesn’t use Illustrator. Don’t forget to play with your stroke size to get your most desired results! Download below.

Random Free Vectors - Part 9

I had fun making these. I’m constantly trying to push my Illustrator skills to the limit, so I was experimenting, and I came up with this set of freebies in the process. I don’t even know what to call these free vectors. Swirls, ornaments, swooshes, I don’t know. Call them what you want, but I hope you like them. Download AI, EPS, or SVG.

Random Free Vectors - Part 8: Modern Arrows

These free vectors are part 8 of the ongoing ‘Random Free Vectors’ series here on BittBox. I call them “modern arrows,” but you may call them something different. I’ve seen these types of shapes being used in a lot of illustration in the past couple years, so I sat down for an evening and created some to share. I hope you find them useful! Remember you can post your designs in the BittBox User Showcase group @ Flickr to show us how you put them to use! Files are available in AI, EPS, and SVG.
