WRECKING INK

Brush & Texture Distressing Kit
by G.A.R.M. Co. & Benny Gold
for Procreate, Photoshop, Illustrator & Affinity

Wrecking Ink is a brush and texture distressing kit built for controlled wear, grit, damage and surface breakdown.

Created in collaboration between G.A.R.M. Co. and Benny Gold, the set gives you a full spectrum of distress tools for aging artwork, breaking down ink, roughing up layouts and adding real material wear to digital work.

Use it lightly for dust, scratches and worn edges. Push it harder for stained paper, torn surfaces, heavy ink breakdown and full layout destruction.

Full control over the damage. That is the whole point.

What’s Included

• 24 handmade distresser brushes
Built for worn edges, weathered surfaces, ink breakdowns, rough masks, layout aging and controlled texture buildup. From subtle to severe, these brushes let you add grit at your own pace.

• 20 high resolution textures at 300 DPI
Scanned from real paper and canvas at the G.A.R.M. studio. The set includes lightly worn stock, stained sheets, crumpled paper, torn surfaces, canvas texture and even a wooden plate with plenty of character.

• The Wrecking Ink Destruction Manual
A PDF booklet with samples of every texture in the set, making it easier to preview the materials and choose the right level of damage while you work.

What Wrecking Ink Does Best

• Fine surface grit
• Worn edges
• Scratches and scuffs
• Ink breakdown
• Paper wear
• Stained texture
• Torn surface effects
• Layout aging
• Heavy distress and material damage

Wrecking Ink gives you the range to keep things clean and controlled or push the artwork into full wreckage.

Light and dusty or loud and ruined. Your call.

Built From Real Damage

Every brush and texture was made from real source material: paper, canvas, found scraps and physical surface wear. The goal was not to fake distress with generic noise. It was to capture real material breakdown and turn it into a flexible digital toolkit.

Layer it. Mask it. Blend it. Build it slowly or tear the whole piece apart.

Adobe Illustrator Version

Because Illustrator is vector based, the toolkit is structured differently.

The Illustrator version includes:

• 8 custom vector distress brushes
• 16 distress texture swatches

Together they give you scalable and editable distress that holds up at any size while keeping the raw Wrecking Ink feel.
