If you’ve ever wanted to create your own leaded glass designs but were put off by the high cost of materials and the risk of glass cuts, then this Illustrator & Photoshop stained glass toolkit by Artifex Forge is right for you. For the first time, you are now able to create a convincing-looking digital version of glass art from the safety of your own computer.
How was the pack made?
I painstakingly scanned hundreds of dollars worth of real glass samples, some of which I salvaged myself (this was no easy feat!). These were cleaned up and converted into seamless, repeat texture patterns. They were then combined with adjustable lighting effects and saved as one-click layer styles, which enable the user to transform shapes and type instantly and easily for a pristine stained glass effect in photoshop. I also created a variety of leading brushes for Illustrator so you can add authentic-looking outlines to your designs.
