Making of: Photoshop brushes

Beware!

Steps of how to create your own brushes instead of being boring and downloading them from the Internet:



1. Using anything you want (pastel, paper towels, coal, etc.) draw the wanted brush. The rougher paper the better.
2. Scan the brushes. In the highest quality possible.

3. If the paper is scanned in color, increase the intensity of black and white: Images → Adjustments → Levels


4. Choose one of the drawn brushes and go to Edit → Define Brush, name it. 
And it's among the other brushes already!
