Free Seamless Vector Perforated Metal Pattern

February 20, 2007 | Posted in Freebies |

I’ve found it to be a difficult task to discover (decent) free seamless perforated metal patterns on the web. Seamless VECTOR is even harder to find. I mulled it over and the seamless vector patterns that I’ve searched for the most would be Perf metal, and Paisley, by far. I haven’t attempted paisley yet, but I thought if I made a perforated metal pattern in vector, my guess is that a lot of people would find it somewhat useful, so here it is:

I didn’t add a texture for a few obvious [to me] reasons: 1. Some people will want to create their own textures on top of the design. 2. Textures are way better in Photoshop anyway. And 3. It’s easier for people to customize, not having to get rid of the styles I would have applied. (the styles palette can be confusing to casual illustrator users)

Note: I included a seamless PNG, just in-case ;)

Includes: - AI (2) EPS (1) SVG (1) PNG (1)

    There is nothing like downloading something and having to rip it apart to get at the piece i need. Only to realize it was simple, and the designer was going for something “cool” in an overly complicated way.

    Thanks again, good luck on that Paisley!

    I wish I had seen this a couple of weeks ago.
    I was rendering an instore display system and had to create this pattern for sections of the display. Didn’t take long but this stuff helps cut the time down.

    I was looking for paisleys and found this fantastic shareware font:
    Just thought I’d pass it along…. Could be used or modified for making pattern…
    Note not ‘freeware’ exactly so be sure to give originator some love if used commercially!
