Random Free Vectors Part 4 – Wings

April 4, 2007 | Posted in Freebies | 26 Comments »

I’ve never gotten a chance to use something like this in an actual design for a client, but I love wings none the less. You see wings in design all the time, and I’m itching to use them sometime. I was playing around with some images, and ended up putting together a few vector wings. Have fun with them, and I envy you if you get to actually use them for real! The example below contains only the 3 pairs of wings provided (download below). . .

Like them or not, flowers are a huge part of current design trends. Open any mainstream design magazine and you’ll surely find them plastered everywhere, not to mention the web, as well as TV commercials and the advertising industry. I’ve put together a few detailed vector flowers for you to use in your designs and experiment with. Because of the detail in these vectors, it allows you to pick them apart and make more complex designs, from just a few simple vectors. The example below is made from only 3 flowers.

Here is another example of a design play with a single shape. With a single shape, it’s possible to achieve very intricate designs, with a little layering, color, and path manipulation.

5 Excellent Free Grunge Fonts

March 18, 2007 | Posted in Freebies | 200 Comments »

These are 5 of the (in my opinion) best free “grunge” or “eroded” typefaces of late. Three of which are from the same artist/typographer Gyom S?guin. I hope you didn’t miss these, but if you did, you can download them right away. They’re free. I wish I had more opportunities to take advantage of these fonts in a real situation, but I find that it’s always a good idea to keep these fonts around to save time having to look for them later.
