Photoshop: Apply Texture Brush to Vector
To apply a brush texture to a vector in Adobe Photoshop follow these steps.
Select Backgroundβ
Start with whatever background you want. In this case we are using a blue canvas. Set your background on itβs own layer and lock the layer. We wonβt be touching this for the rest of the tutorial.
Select Brushβ
Open the brush window and select whichever brush you would like to apply.
Apply Brushβ
Apply the brush so that the whole stroke is inside the canvas. If it goes over the edge it will clip. You can resize and rotate the brush stroke later.
Name Brush Layerβ
Name your new layer.
Adjust Brush Layerβ
Using the selection tool you can rotate and resize the stroke however you want.
Select Vectorβ
Go into Illustrator and copy your vector of choice.
Paste Vectorβ
Back in Photoshop, select the Brush layer you just made and then paste (ctrl+v) the vector you just copied in Illustrator. Photoshop will ask you what format you would like the vector pasted as. Select Path.
Apply Brush to Vectorβ
The path will be applied to the brush stroke.
Unlink brush from vectorβ
You can click the chain icon to unlink the brush stroke and the vector path so that the stroke and be adjusted independently inside of the path. This will let you fine tune the appearance of the stroke on the vector.
