Once again, the Artifex Forge has been on an urban adventure – exploring the city’s bright lights to bring you better design resources! This time I’ve been searching for the best neon tubes to bring this super-realistic set of neon brushes and neon glow effects to life.
If you find existing neon effects limiting, lifeless and a little unrealistic, this is the perfect set for you. Most are entirely computer-generated and therefore lack the lifelike qualities and quirks of genuine neon tubing. With these brushes, you can really give your design the wow-factor. So, why are they so much better?
True-to-life: they are sourced from real neon tubing, so no flat, lifeless vector neon effects.
Multiple highlight options: this recognizes that when you have a group of neon tubes together, they illuminate each other, creating more highlights.
Flexibility: being brushes, they’re malleable giving you more scope to create the images you want.
Fun: you’re drawing with neon tubing… what more can I say?
