Need to give a boost to a boring sky? There’s nothing like a nice set of clouds when you want to add some drama in the clear blues. For your convenience, Peter has created an awesome set of cloud brushes which you are free to use in your projects.

On this occasion we are introducing a new section on the Ardis website – the Download section, which will, in time, be packed with all sorts of goodies for your designing needs. And best of all – they’re free to use in any project you wish, commercial or not! For starters, have yourself some brushes, a few styles and actions. But don’t forget to bookmark the page because soon you can expect more Photoshop goodies, an image gallery with photographs that you can use to practice our tutorials, or even in your projects, and a section dedicated to code snippets, CSS goodies and Flash magic.

Download the clouds brushes here.

You might notice, these look different than other puffy fluffy cloud brushes you have seen. But the results will be nothing short of great: realistic looking skies and endless possibilities when you add the clouds on layers and play around with different shades of gray, transparency and blending modes. Did I mention that they are high resolution, so you can use them in print work as well?

Here are a couple of possibilities after I played around with these brushes:
