Ok you're going to be making brushes like this http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/33825878/

Step 1) Make a new image 350.350 white

Step 2) Make 4 new transparent layers

Step 3) Change the modes so they look like this



Step 4) On layer normal Goto>Filters>Render>Clouds>Plasma
Use these settings

BTW change random seed

Step 5) Desaturate it


Step 6) On grain merge layer do step 4&6 again

Step 7) Then Goto>Filters>Artistic>GIMPressionist


Step On the multiply layer Goto>Filters>Renders>Clouds Solid Noise
Use these settings

Click new seed a few times

Step 9) On the Divide layer do the same thing but with these settings

Click New Seed a few times

Step 10) Merge the layers down into the normal layer

Step 11) Select the paths tool and make a nice path the size and shape of your brush don't worry if it looks too sharp

Step 12) Click path to selection

Step 13) Goto>Select>Feather by 40-80

Step 14) Pree Ctrl+I and then Ctrl+K

Step 15) Flatten the image

Step 16) Goto>Image>AutoCrop Image

Step 17) Goto>Image>Mode>Greyscale

Step 18) Save with .gbr at the end

And now you should have a nice brush like this.

very nice tut


one question though.. when i have made some brushes, i save them a .gbr but when i start GIMP they are named
GIMP Brush #1 and so on. How do i change it so i get the name in gimp that i want?

When you save them change the descrepishion to what the name is sorry 'bout that.

ok, thx :h:

Nice tut!

Thanks for sharing

didn't i post here that i was going to make some brushes?

Strange...it wont allow me to save

Sorry for double post.. But it won't let me save as grayscale unless the image is flattened, which kills the transparency


NVM fixed. Just realized it had to be white

You don't want transparency in your brush.

lol, how do i make a set with this?

how do you make it so the colors change to what you choose them... i have a logo brush like my logo and i want to change the color...

sweet style on your computer how do you do that orange highlight with 3d ? ? --?


problem my gimp only takes the shape of the brushes ?!?!

I'm not good with the paintbrush :a:

I'm surprised, how good this was. I also learnt a new secrect while I was at it . I tryed one tutorial it failed, so i forgot to change brush then I stopped at your tutorial accidently brushed I've got a right nice grunge brush now. Thanks

Awesome tut. Some steps could have been explained a little better, but overall it was good.

I saved it the way you said, now how can I use it as a brush?

Edit: Nvm, I figured it out.
