Well I want to apologize for not releasing as many textures, brushes, and patterns lately. It's because I finally decided to write a freeware Windows application for viewing, organizing, and exporting brushes to .png's. Go ahead and check it out if you're interested and remember this is version 1.0! Texturemate users can submit feature requests...
Here is a spiral brush set that I've had laying around for some time that I figured I should share. This brush set contains 10 various spirals that are mostly a cartoon or hand drawn style. They remind me of Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas or something! I hand drew them on my Wacom tablet and converted them into brushes quite a while...

Well since my latest shared brush set was spatters, it's only fair that I share a drips brush set with you! I've had these ones laying around for some time now. I made these drips with some black acrylic paint, let them drip naturally, and then scanned them. These drip brushes are all around 1500 pixels in size or so, so they should be enough...
I had these spatter droplets sitting around so I decided to create a brush set for them! These are a little different then my recent Splatter 1 Brush Set because they are just the drops and are not connected to each other by large amounts of liquid. These brushes could be used for some scary blood effects or anywhere you want to show some...

A .png of each pattern is also...
One tool I have been finding very useful in Gimp lately is the Color Curves adjustment dialog so I figured I would make a quick tutorial or guide on it. I have been finding that it allows you to make nice smooth appearing adjustments to contrast in the image or layer you are working on. Often times I want to increase contrast just a little bit...
I got a new scanner so it's time to scan some things! Here is a set of ten brushes I created from spray painting paper and letting it drip.

One of the brushes in the set is of the end of a log and doesn't have hard edges like the rest do. These brushes were created in Adobe Photoshop CS5 and will...
Here are 20 various pixel art seamless patterns that I created in black and white.
