I don't know if this has been said before, but the brushing step can be made a lot faster using the brush dynamics and the spacing~ I'll explain. When using a brush you see that there's a hidden menu called "Brush Dynamics" which has the following: Pressure, Speed and Random. It's how the brush is gonna be altered by the following. The brush can be altered by these in size, opacity, hardness and colors. Since what we want is random brush sizes, check the Random Size block, which saves us time

[xBrohx]

@xBrohx After that, have the brush dialogs open, and select a higher spacing for the brush, I used 300. Then just brush away. Saves a lot of time. Just a tip ;)

[WeArePants]

[AprilTheRandomChic]

Hi Brayden

I Love your videos but i dont have a mac and its hard to follow your steps

[GimpKnowHow]

Hi,

This tutorial should be the same for a mac as a PC.

(*Cough Braedon Cough*)

[dacharismaticenigma]

GKH,

I cant fill my circle?Did I do something wrong?

[GimpKnowHow]

I don't know what you mean.. You can't fill in your circle? You mean when you are making your brush? What happens? Do you have a selection active?

[dacharismaticenigma]

What I mean is when I try to bucket fill It wont work?

[dacharismaticenigma]

Sorry,I mean when I am making my brush

[GamingPlusM0re]

I mean switch?

[GimpKnowHow]

Open up the layers dialog.

Click on the little arrow between your tools and the tool options then click add tab. Click layers.

Click on the layer you want to switch to. Once you click on it you are switched to it.

[GamingPlusM0re]

Thanks!

[GamingPlusM0re]

How do you get to layers?

[Dytagen]

[MeltedJellyy]

i love you

[GimpKnowHow]

Uh.. Thanks.

[dabadestceecee]

wow...

[crackpod2]

Amazing tutorial there, you seem like a really experienced Gimp user. Did you teach all that yourself or did you learn from tutorials?

[GimpKnowHow]

I learned this effect from a tutorial from abduzeedo. Mostly, I just learn on my own, and combine effects from other tutorials. Thanks!

[Shade117pro]

you are iconic to me...

Damn I use Ps now but ill try to do this in gimp. Just for fun (& also to amuse me!! :P)

(lol i ain't using firefox right now, im using Safari... :P)

[Arietta14]

I love your tuts!!! I'm getting use to my gimp and have been making sigs with them for awhile. Your lessens have helped me improve so much!! XD Thank you! I also like the way your voice sounds.....for some odd reason. I hope you don't think I'm weird......

[AshelleTH]

"Gaussian Blur makes everything better" lol, nice vid (:

[GimpKnowHow]

Well it does...

[Leon5k]

What was the url where you got that font from?

Very nice video as always.

[GimpKnowHow]

Its called Abusive Pencil.

I forget the URL, just google it.

[FreewillTutorials]

also it isn't the usual awesome quality (Visual Wise)

[GimpKnowHow]

?Visual as in the image or video?

[FreewillTutorials]

Why are the clicks so loud? Or are those effects?

[GimpKnowHow]

No its just my mic picking up my mouse.

[TheCeejPlus]

It's not high quality because YouTube is having issues with high quality videos. Click on help>known issues. It should be under uploading. There's also a link to a three page forum where everyone's complaining about how it's not fixed after two weeks of the issue's existence. Personally, I don't think YouTube wants to fix it. I think they want all their videos to be shitty quality.

[GimpKnowHow]

Oh. TY

[KingRaptor23]

THATS STARLIGHTS!!! OMG

[jxiscool]

yea it is i realized that too :o im surprised he didnt credit him

[GimpKnowHow]

I didnt't know someone made this, honest. I saw it on Abuduzeedo and decided to translate it to Gimp. Is it exactly the same? Can someone give me the link?

[GimpKnowHow]

OK well I gave the website that had it credit.

[GimpKnowHow]

Sorry for all of the skips. My tutorial ran about 11 minutes, so I had to cut some out.
