Description Just a pic to show people which brushes I use. These are both default brushes, so you already have them. ^^

The first one: Airbrush Pen Opacity Flow is the one I use about 95% of the time in Photoshop. I use it for the lineart too. I generally have it set at 80% Opacity and use the pressure sensitivity of the tablet to vary the opacity. So I put more pressure on the pen when I want heavy brush strokes and less pressure when I want lighter brush strokes.

The second brush: Airbrush Soft Round. This is just the fuzziest default brush. I use this mostly in backgrounds and to soften shadows.

In Painter I use 'Soft Oil Pastel' for colouring and 'Just Add Water' for blending.

I cherish these two brushes, they're no longer useable in CS5, which ticked me off.

Can I ask you something?

I have photoshop CS 4, and a Wacom Bamboo pen tablet (if thats important) But I cant find tje airbrushes. And every digital paiting tutorial says that you have to use the airbrush pen opacity brush >:

Argh, someone please give a download link for the first one! I have Photoshop CS4, and I'm at my WITS END trying to find a download link for that first brush, and I'm NOT buying Wacom. End of Story.

Did you get them?

If you didnt, reset your brushes. All of the brushes that were there since the begining will show. BUT any brushes that werent there (custom, downloaded, etc.) will dissapear.

I almost had tears in my eyes after seeing these after four days of separation. Actually, I still got this problem that I don't have them, tried everything:
- re-installing photoshop
- re-installing drivers
- re-installing brush packages
- checking every brush
- checking if everything is set right in ps
- cleaning computer from viruses and whatnot
- checking pen pressure on Wacom.
Now it even doesn't want to read .abr. :/ It was lost because the whole program stopped loading, couldn't do a thing about it, and now when I re-installed CS my fav brush is gone. D; I'd be glad if you could give some tips on how to get out of this mess. :< I've got lots of work to do but can't finish it.

Hi... may I ask you one thing?
I'm searching for these brushes but I've got some problem... into my palette the brush with this name, "Airbrush pen opacity flow", is a common rounded brush... I just would like to know why your brush is so... particular...

I'd really glad if you could help me...

Thanks very much and forgive my poor English.

Fenglyph In reply to ByakuganLove [2007-10-16 11:49:54 +0000 UTC]

Hey ByakuganLove ^^

Do you use a mouse or a tablet? If you just use a mouse, the brush won't have the fade effect. You need a tablet with "pressure sensitivity". I hope that answers your question.

ByakuganLove In reply to Fenglyph [2007-10-16 12:17:58 +0000 UTC]

I've got a Wacom tablet... but it doesn't work =_=

I don't know... where is the problem... I just know that I've only a stupid round brush into my palette T_T

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Fenglyph In reply to ByakuganLove [2007-10-16 12:46:04 +0000 UTC]

Hmmm ;-;

Try this:

1) Press f5 to open the brush window.

2) Find the Airbrush Pen Opacity Flow brush and select it

3) Then click on 'Other Dynamics'

4) Set Opacity jitter and Flow jitter to 0% and set conrtol to "Pen Pressure"

If that doesn't work then you may need to reinstall the tablet. ;-;

Fenglyph In reply to Bhiqm [2007-12-29 13:36:33 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, you need a tablet for these brushes to work properly.

Although the second brush still works well with a mouse.

Akk, so desperate^^. Since you seem to be so helpfull I thought I might as well ask you a question. I don't have a tablet, sadly. And I don't have Photoshop, I got Paintshop (XI Photo) and I am not sure if this Airbrush Pen opacity Flow brush is in there as a basic brush. Do you know?^^

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Fenglyph In reply to EverandEver [2008-03-12 22:32:07 +0000 UTC]

Hey Everand. I've never used Paintshop so I don't know if it has the Airbrush Pen opacity Flow brush. But if you don't have a tablet the brush would just behave like an ordinary basic round brush anyway...

EverandEver In reply to Fenglyph [2008-03-13 05:44:23 +0000 UTC]

Surely the brush won't work if I don't have a tablet, you can't regular pressure with a mouse^^ But someday I'll get a tablet and it would be nice to know if I need to get photoshop beforehand to use brushes like that.
