EDIT - now this brushpack is available with the original brush (Chainmail1) PLUS 6 further hires Chainmail brushes!

DO NOT REPOST OR REUPLOAD THIS DAMNIT! PLEASE JUST LINK TO THIS FILE HERE!

are you a fantasy illustrator who is drawing tons of chainmail and spending hours on it? here´s your brush. since i own a chainmail shirt i put it on my scanner today (15 kg, the poor scanner survived!!) and made a brush out of it. here in the preview you can see a sample. best is to make the chainmail brush itself black and paint on the layer BELOW some lightning and shadows, then merge it and maybe use the burn or darkening brush after that, and sharpen it a little. that´s what I did in the preview, and since only whimps are wearing shiney silver and clean chainmail shirts, i´d recommend some brownish/copper color and some grid brushes. :)


Below is a link to the additional chainmail PSD set with various types of chainmail! For download the Photoshop brush (created for CS versions) just hit the download button on the left side!

You can use this brushes for your non-commercial and commercial artwork, but don´t resell the brushes! It would be nice if you credit me if possible and give me a link back, and show me what you have done with them. :heart:

Labels? Okay, fine. I'm bisensual. Heteroflexible. And life-curious. That about covers it.
