RetroSupply Co. review
A broad commercial brush library for designers and illustrators across six apps.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
RetroSupply Co. sells downloadable retro-inspired brushes and digital art resources for graphic designers, illustrators, and artists. Its library covers Procreate, Photoshop, Illustrator, Affinity Designer, Affinity Photo, and Clip Studio Paint, with software-specific packs, bundles, textures, fonts, templates, and tutorials. Commercial artwork is permitted under the standard license, making the catalog a fit for professionals who need licensed resources across several creative applications rather than a single-app brush collection.
Pricing is organized around one-time purchases. Individual brush packs cost $19 and include software-specific packs, downloadable products, and commercial artwork permission under the standard license. Complete collections cost $197 and add complete software-specific collections for Procreate, Photoshop, Illustrator, and Affinity. Free brush samples and downloads are available, but the free samples are for personal use only. Delivery is provided through a confirmation page, email, or customer account, and the catalog has been available since 2013.
The main strength is breadth: the published formats include .abr, .tpl, .ai, and .afbrushes, while the application coverage spans desktop, iPad, and the listed Windows and macOS platforms. That makes RetroSupply Co. suitable for teams or independent professionals moving between Adobe, Affinity, Procreate, and Clip Studio Paint. The trade-off is that buyers must select software-specific products and follow license limits: original files cannot be shared or resold, and brushes are restricted to their intended software. Buyers seeking a broad commercial collection should consider it; those wanting unrestricted file sharing, commercial use from free samples, or a single low-cost bundle may prefer a narrower alternative.
