June 20th, 2009 3:39 amI read the RSS expecting actual swirls. It’s as misleading as that fags self-proclaimed title as “brush [queen]“

January 20th, 2010 3:38 amAye, these are funky and far out. I almost need an excuse to use them! You’d need to adopt a very specific approach to your design to accomodate most of the above.
We recently put out some brsuehs at the opposite end of the spectrum for use creating rust, wood and the like. If anyone wants them then they’re here: http://www.kinocreative.co.uk/resources/free-photoshop-brushes-from-kino-creative/
