After a trip to Sicily, where I saw some stunning ancient Roman mosaics, it occurred to me that there was no tool which allowed Affinity Designer users to draw their own mosaic designs. On my return I set about making this complete mosaic tile tool kit - it contains everything you need to create your own realistic looking fauxsaics.

In this pack I've captured the irregular, chipped edges of the original Roman source material (c. 4th century AD) allowing you to create stunning designs and illustrations with a sense of antiquity. However, the pack isn't just for adding a vintage look - as you'll see from the screen-shots you can use them to bring a unique twist to contemporary designs too.

In order to make the pack I studied loads of real mosaics and developed the brushes by re-creating a real Roman design - the bear image screen-shot.

Don't worry if you're new to Affinity Designer brushes, I've included full instructions and created this handy video to show you how easy the pack is to use - https://vimeo.com/417670039

The pack contains all of these fantastic components:
