SOFTWARE COMPATIBILITY – Our marker pen brushes work in Adobe Illustrator CS1-CC. An Affinity Designer version of the markers is available HERE
I’m proud to release one of my most authentic vector brush packs yet  – Chunky Markers. So, now you can create convincing marker pen artwork in Adobe Illustrator with ease. Why not expand your digital tool kit and give marker art a go? You could even try using the markers for digital hand-lettering!
Over 300 real marker pen textures samples were created and only the best ones were selected for this pack. Hours were spent testing different markers on varied surfaces to get the look just right, and the result is the most realistic looking vector marker set available.
As a bonus, I’ve included the marker texture repeat pattern shown in the preview – this is perfect for giving designs a boho feel.
