Good Illustrator brushes are a little bit harder to find than good Photoshop brushes, but there are some quality, free sets out there. Several months ago I published a collection of 45 sets of Illustrator brushes, and today we’ll feature 30 additional sets.

Fantastic collection, without doubt the best sets I’ve ever come across.

Are Illustrator brushes compatible with GIMP like PS brushes are? I’d assume so… TIA.

Great collection.
