The packages include photoshop styles which can be used to create a nice fire effect with the brushes. I want to share with you these brushes, I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. So I did a lot of pictures of smoke, changed them into photoshop brushes and tweaked the layer styles to a color which ended up quite close to fire.

I always wanted to have a simple way to create some fire effects in photoshop.
