Lightning II

This is an excellent set of very high resolution brushes by Obsidian Dawn. This set of free brushes contains 26 different brushes showing all sorts of different lightning patterns with resolutions ranging from around 1300 to 2500 pixels. This makes them suitable for use with just about any Photoshop project. The different brushes give you a great choice of different types of branching of the lightning bolts and different directions that the arcs can go in. These of course will also look great with magic and alchemy effects, and they can even make believable looking veins and blood vessels. Here's an example of the look you can achieve with these brushes:
