Whether you’re beating your subject into submission or carefully teasing-out a triumphant result, our distress press distressing effects kit is so effective you’ll probably cry.

Distress press’s savagely powerful roughening action and precisely focussed texture brushes allow you to quickly and easily create bespoke distressing and texture treatments for your artwork whilst taking complete control of the entire process.

Most other distressing and letterpress kits work by combining just one repetitive filter action with blanket texture overlays that lack nuance and flexibility. The results often feel generic, robotic and stiff.

Distress Press puts the care and craft back into distressing by combining multiple distressing effects and advanced masking techniques with pro-quality precision texture brushes to create authentic results that save you time, strain and pain.

Distressing action features:

• Combines multiple roughening filters with advanced masking and contrast control to create authentic distressing effects without glitching or soft edges.
• Non destructive. Original clean art remains intact.
• Edit colour quickly and easily.
• Carefully craft your results with expert control, or beat up your work lightning-fast with our expertly created presets.
