A set of Photoshop brushes for space effects, a set of brushes to simulate the effect of a painted canvas, a hand-drawn vector illustration set and a Moleskine icon set. Made in Photoshop CS2, imagepack included.

There are 51 total brushes in the package. The Fade option gradually makes each new stamp smaller than the previous one until the brush is no longer visible.

Exactly how long it takes for the brush stroke to fade out completely is determined by the number of steps we set for it in the input box to the right of the Control option. The default number of steps is Think of "steps" as stamps, with each new stamp of the brush tip being one step.

With the default value of 25, Photoshop will gradually reduce the size of the brush stroke over the course of 25 stamps. The easiest way to see this is by increasing the spacing between each stamp.

Let's exit out of the Shape Dynamics controls for a moment by clicking on the words Brush Tip Shape directly above Shape Dynamics on the left side of the Brushes panel:. This gives us options for adjusting the brush tip itself. You'll find the Spacing option near the bottom of the panel, just above the brush stroke preview area.

The Spacing option allows us to adjust the distance between each stamp of the brush tip as we paint a stroke. I'm going to drag the Spacing slider towards the right to increase the amount of space between each new brush tip, which will make it easy for us to see how Fade is working. I still have one of Photoshop's standard round brushes selected.

Notice how each new stamp of the brush tip is smaller than the previous one. If you count each stamp, you'll find that there's exactly 25 of them from the largest one on the left to the smallest one on the right. After that, the stroke disappears into oblivion:. I'll click back on the words Shape Dynamics on the left of the Brushes panel so I can once again access the Size controls and I'll lower the number of Fade steps to If we look at the preview of the brush stroke at the bottom of the panel, we see that the stroke is now shorter since it's taking only 15 stamps of the brush tip for the size of the brush to fade out to nothing:.

For best results when using Fade to control the size of the brush, you'll usually need to adjust the Spacing option as well to fine-tune the length and smoothness of the brush stroke. A smaller Spacing value will give you a smoother looking stroke. Larger values make the individual stamps more obvious and result in a more ridged appearance. If you don't want the brush size to fade out completely, you can use the Minimum Diameter option to set a limit for how small the brush can get.

Once the brush is reduced to the minimum size, it will remain at that size for as long as you continue dragging out the stroke. You can adjust the Minimum Diameter option either by dragging its slider or by entering a specific value into the input box.

If we look at the preview of the brush stroke at the bottom of the panel, we see that the stroke now continues on and never drops below its new minimum size:. By far the most common and natural way to dynamically control the thickness of a brush stroke as you paint is with Pen Pressure :. With Pen Pressure selected for the size Control option, the harder you press the pen into the tablet, the larger the stroke thickness becomes.

Easing up on the pressure makes the brush stroke thinner. The preview area at the bottom of the Brushes panel will change to show the brush stroke tapered off at both ends when Pen Pressure is selected:.

Of course, you can only use this option if you have a pressure-sensitive pen tablet installed on your computer. Photoshop won't stop you from selecting Pen Pressure even if you don't have a pen tablet installed, but it will display a small warning icon to let you know that even though you've selected it, it's not going to work:.

If you do have a pen tablet installed and want even more dynamic control over the size of your brush stroke, try out the Pen Tilt option:. Pen Tilt includes all of the pressure-sensitive abilities of the Pen Pressure option and adds the ability to control the size of the brush by tilting the pen as you paint.

The further you tilt the pen, the larger the stroke becomes. You can control how much of an impact tilting the pen has on the brush stroke with the Tilt Scale option, which is only available when Pen Tilt is enabled. Drag the slider left or right to adjust the scaling percentage:.

Personally, I find that using Pen Tilt to control the brush size is more frustrating than anything so I usually stick with the Pen Pressure option, but that's just me. And by "just me", I mean probably you, too.

Finally, the last option we have for dynamically controlling the brush size is Stylus Wheel :. Many Photoshop users select this option thinking it will allow them to control the brush size with their mouse wheel, but nope, that's not the wheel Adobe is referring to here.

This Stylus Wheel option is for people who not only have a pen tablet but also have an optional airbrush pen to go with it. The airbrush has a special stylus wheel built in to it, and if you happen to have an airbrush, you can use its stylus wheel to control your brush size. Now that we've looked at the various ways Photoshop gives us for dynamically controlling the size of a brush as we paint, let's jump back to that initial option we purposely ignored earlier - Jitter.

The term "jitter' is Photoshop-speak for randomness , which is actually the exact opposite of control. Whenever we see the word Jitter beside the name of a heading Size, Angle, Roundness, etc , it means we can let Photoshop randomly make changes to that aspect of the brush as we paint with it. Jitter has absolutely nothing to do with the Control options we just looked at. For example, you can control your brush size with pen pressure and still add some randomness to it as well.

To have the size of the brush randomly change as you paint, drag the Jitter slider towards the right. The further you drag the slider, the more randomness you'll add:. Keep an eye on the preview area at the bottom of the Brushes panel to see the results as you drag the Jitter slider. Decorative Divider Brush Collection. Underline Photoshop Brushes.
