This is a new addition to the PSDTUTS PLUS section. This is the first of upcoming Brush Packs available exclusively to PLUS members. The design is based on the fluid concept of natural doodles and has a unique creative feel. Learn all about the new PLUS Brush Pack at the jump.
New Exclusive Nature Doodles PLUS Brush Pack
This first PLUS Brush Pack is designed by Alex Beltechi, and is titled "Nature Doodles." This is from the same artist that recently wrote the tutorial here at PSDTUTS about using drawn doodle elements to create artistic works. He continues with this train of visual thought in creating this exclusive Brush Pack based off of unique doodle illustrations. The brushes come with commercial usage rights as well, review the download file for more details.
Artists Statement from Alex Beltechi
I rediscovered doodling while stumbling upon Doodlage.com. I often doodled in high-school, as a way of consuming some never-ending hours. However, it soon became an easy way of letting loose my own creativity and artistic expression. Now, a couple of years later, while missing the old habit, and rejuvenated by the doodle site, I reclaimed my ink pen and paper in hope of further developing my doodles, and being able to use them one day in my designs. It was time to blend my digital knowledge with art. As if catching my breath, I give you a piece of the stage that I am at, that will hopefully be useful to you.
Through simple observation, it is obvious that doodles have taken a considerable part in art and design today. Take a look around, and notice that what was once coffee break scribbling has now lead to professional design work and inspiring art. My intent is to give you an easily accessible and flexible form of doodles- artistic and abstract elements of nature. You’ll notice that certain brushes can serve different purposes and illustrate a range of different things. An ornament can become a sun, a cloud, or decorative foliage. It’s all up to the direction and role you want to give them.
You can use these in creating your professional designs, or simply experiment in your personal projects. Create a piece based on these doodles, or find out how you can combine these brushes with other objects. Do you find a simple design attractive, or do you believe that intricacy would better fit your style? Discover what you approve and dislike in doodle art and design, and discover your very own original purpose for this set.
Sign up for PLUS today and get access to this creative brush pack! If you’re a member you can log in and download the PLUS Brush Pack now. Also, we have released an exclusive vector pack version of these designs for VECTORTUTS PLUS Members, read the announcement.

Nice looking set.
Why not combine all Envato under one $10/mo membership. I’m sure I’m not alone when I say I’d sign up forever.
Yeah I’m going to have to agree with the membership. I currently have one for psdtuts but I’m sure I’ll end up switching to a membership with nettuts when that arrives. I’m only going to have one but if they offered something that was a few bucks more and covered all of them…I’m sure I would go for that one.
I’m liking it!
ZOMG great! i need to sign for that Membership thing!
swheet!
Nice brushes, I think I can try few things with them.
I need to sign up for plus Membership!
Thanks guys

This is a double release of the same designs (in different formats) across both VECTORTUTS PLUS and PSDTUTS PLUS. Alex developed both sets congruently and we’re releasing them on the same day. I’m really excited about the new material being added to the PLUS areas of both sites and I’m working to get more member PLUS Packs developed.
Read the VECTORTUTS announcement as well.
In regards to pricing, there is currently a discount when joining both sites. We’ll certainly keep your suggestions in mind, as we release more sites. Thx.
@ Conrad Gorny and Roshan
If you’re going to spam your website in a comment, at least try and make it have more substance than one sentence. I’m well aware that most people comment on these posts simply for the potential traffic it might bring (I do this myself occasionally, however I try and find meaningful things to say when I do comment.) but you guys are taking it to a new low.
Nice, was not expecting that. Will be playing with these this weekend!
Umm… Nothing that call My interest…. Looks like wood…!
Plus has strikes again. very nice.
With all the PLUS sites, I understand there may be a discount for multiple memberships. However, as others have mentioned, is there any chance of a sort of “all in one” package where you could get a membership to all of them?
I think if this option was available I would join the TUTS sites as I am already a member of freelance switch. Anyway, the brushes look nice, maybe if there is a bundle package one day I may get to try them
this brush maybe useful in some ways. I think it catch readers interest if you could show us a nice example/tutorial using this brush.
The brushes look good and the addition of this feature will, no doubt, be the final push for a lot of PSDTuts readers to join the Plus Membership. And while this pack looks like it had a lot of work put into it and it’s High Res as well I cannot seem to be able to foresee an actual real life use for them. I never had a client that wanted artistic, stringy, wooden, nature stuff on his website or poster. Maybe it’s just me but I agree with Insic on this.
Hmm… Not for me I’m afraid. Still look nice though, almost like muscle tissue?
Nice, they give a lot of ideas ; )
Thnx

^that won’t work. you can get both for free by just getting the vectors, then rasterising them and converting to a brush.^
This is cool, but not enough for me to get a plus membership.
ok first of all nice brushes….Second wow first time ever sharing brusehs and u had to put it under membership??? there are so many sites who give some really good brushes for free, y culdn’t u do that?
Thanx for the tuts that you guys provide!
Nice work PSDTUTS guys
Thanks for the set! Pretty cool brushes, I will surely use them!
These brushes are very detailed and have a strong characteristic
Nice job!
I think they are too strange to be really useful, even if they’re very well done. Not worth getting a plus membership for, I’m afraid.
I’m gonna find something to do with these… Just no idea what right now.
Are the tutorials in the members area video?
Thanks.
Aftab.
