6 Sites for free Illustrator Gradient Swatches

Free Downloadable Illustrator Gradient Swatches for you to try

1. Opengraphicdesign.com
This selection of 48 vector gradients makes a good starter pack. There are some handy black and light colored gradients as well as a lot of green and blue ones too. If you’re looking for a simple collection of gradients to start off with this a good choice.



2. Metallic gradients from Deviant Art
Deviant Art is always a great place to find handy downloadable things. Here we’ve located 140 metal gradients for Illustrator. There are a range of gold, metal gradients as well as copper, bronze, brass, silver, chrome, steel, aluminum and other metallic looks. This is a good starter collection of metallic gradients.



3. Gradients one to seven
This group of gradients in files called (somewhat unimaginatively) 1.ai to 7.ai is a selection of handy gradients. While it would be nicer if these gradients were all in one pack that’s not the case so you may want to grab the lot and perhaps assemble them into a single swatch file of your own.


4. VectorPortal gradients
4. At Vectorportal.com you’ll find a series of six gradient packs totalling over 700 gradients. The images for these packs look a little on the small side but don’t let this fool you – each pack ranges in size from 75 – 160 gradients per pack. All six can be downloaded from this site.



5. Web and button style gradients from Faisaljasnak
From Faisaljasnak comes this set of gradients for Illustrator. These gradients range from subtle color shifts to gradients suitable for buttons and other web elements.



6. Adobe Exchange hosted gradients
This next group of downloadable gradients is accessible from Adobe’s own Exchange website.

The first in this round up is Metal Gradients V1.5 .


This second lot is a small set of 3 metallic gradients:


This final set is of another 8 handy metallic gradients:

Say fine and have a great day !!!
