Download Free on App StoreSign painting represents one of America's most cherished lettering traditions, with skilled craftspeople creating beautiful hand-lettered signs for storefronts, vehicles, and windows since the late 1800s. This collection brings the authentic techniques and tools of traditional sign painters to Procreate, allowing you to create vintage-style lettering with the same character and charm of classic hand-painted signs.
The brushes in this set replicate the essential tools of the sign painter's trade. The showcard lettering brushes mimic the flat, chisel-edge brushes used for bold sans-serif letters, while the sign painter flats give you precise control for creating traditional roman and gothic letterforms. Each brush responds to Apple Pencil pressure and tilt, allowing you to achieve the characteristic thick and thin strokes that define professional sign painting.
What sets vintage sign painting apart is its imperfect, human quality—the subtle variations in stroke weight, the occasional drip or overlap, and the weathered patina of age. This collection includes weathered paint brushes that add authentic aging effects, pinstripe detail brushes for decorative flourishes, and specialized brushes for creating outlined letters and metallic gold leaf effects common in classic signage.
Whether you're designing retro branding for a barbershop, creating vintage-inspired logos, or developing nostalgic restaurant graphics, these sign painter brushes deliver authentic results. The style works beautifully for mid-century modern aesthetics, 1950s diner graphics, and any project that needs the warm, handcrafted feel of traditional sign painting.
