Bug Lab | Nature Texture Brushes for Photoshop

Texture Brushes for Photoshop Inspired by Nature and Childhood

BugLab is our little tribute to the power and significance of this kind of art.

Brad Woodard of Brave the Woods and myself spent hours on video calls sharing the textures we found in nature, scanning late into the night, and experimenting with a massive variety of textures to bring you a diverse and great quality set of bold textures.

Bug Lab Product Benefits

Brushes

50 high-resolution brushes including 48 stamp brushes and 2 liner brushes.

The stamp brushes were created from 800-1200 DPI scans of textures from nature and around our homes including leaves from around the United States, tree bark, fungus, wood rings, hand drawn patterns, sponge textures, and more.

Plus, we've included two pencil brushes to add form and detail to your work.

For example, if you look at the bugs in the preview images you'll notice we created the bugs from simple geometric shapes, added textures, and then created legs, wings, and attenae with the pencils.

Instruction and Reference Sheets

We know that you want to start making stuff immediately. That's why we've included easy to follow instructions as well as a printable brush quick reference sheet. This makes it easy for you to refer and jump to the brush you want without going through each brush and stamping to see what it looks like.

Bug Templates

Want to create your own bugs fast (or maybe you just want to get to experimenting with the textures fast)? Brad Woodard created 10 bugs including beetles, butterflies, bees, flies, and more. Each one is in well organized layers so you can isolate any part of the bug and add textures.

Tutorial (Premium Version)

Learn how to create your own nature inspired illustration from sketch to final art work in this 18 minute long tutorial created by Brad Woodard.
