There is plenty of software to build virtual Lego models with your Mac or PC. These applications use properly defined Lego parts data in the form of 3d objects to help you create a lego scene or instruction booklet of a Lego model. Just for fun, I decided to render some of those bricks and turn them into Photoshop brushes.
These are the programs I used : LDraw (not exactly a program but it is long to explain), MLCad (to distribute a group of bricks all over a virtual floor), L3P and L3PAO (to translate MLCad file into a POVRay file) and POVRay (to render the scene). These applications are free, but they are somewhat difficult to use if you are technically challenged.
After rendering the scene, I opened it with Adobe Photoshop and started to create each brush.
A couple of nights ago, when I was updating this site, it came to my attention that, with the time, I have been able to build a little collection of exclusive downloads such as Adobe Photoshop brushes, layer styles, backgrounds and other interesting stuff that some time ago was password protected and now is open to everyone.
So I came up with the idea of creating a section in this blog where visitors could easily find these downloads. This initial post will showcase all the previous downloads available and from now on, each new download, made by me or created by an external designer or artist exclusively for The Photoshop Roadmap, will be announced in this section.
