Must know Illustration Resources For Your Next Web Project

In this short blog, I’ll be covering a few handpicked websites where you can find illustrations for your web projects or graphic design projects. You may find some of the websites mentioning in the blog contains paid service and also totally free service. Please share if you find this blog helpful.

I hope that this kind of resource makes it easier for designers to show the value of illustration in their mockups. Maybe you use these images as placeholders, before you’re ready to hire an illustrator. Or perhaps this will encourage others to create their own kit and share it with the world.

Okay, Now let’s start the list…

1. OPEN DOODLES

Open Doodles is a set of free illustrations that embraces the idea of Open Design. You can copy, edit, remix, share, or redraw these images for any purpose without restriction under copyright or database law (CC0 license.)

The creator or Open Doodles says,

Some of these doodles are direct scans of sketches I drew on my notebook during downtime or meetings. Somehow, doodling while on conference calls help me focus. The rest were first sketched on an iPad using Procreate, vectorized in Illustrator, made into a library with global styles in Sketch, and then exported as SVG and PNG. You can download the individual assets and source files on Dropbox.

2. OPEN PEEPS

The library works like building blocks made of vector arms, legs, and emotions. You can mix these elements to create different Peeps.

  • Combine clothing and hairstyles to add flair
  • Change emotion with different facial expressions
  • Set the scene with different poses—including standing and sitting

You can use Open Peeps in product illustration, marketing imagery, comics, product states, user flows, personas, storyboarding, invitations for your quinceañera…or anything else not on this list.

The library is in the public domain under the CC0 License. This means you can copy, modify, distribute, remix, burn, and use the work, even for commercial purposes, without asking permission.
