Download: Custom Photoshop Brushes, Series 19 20 hair and fur brushes for texture mapping By Dave Nagel Most of you who create textures for 3D objects incorporate Adobe Photoshop into your workflow, so I thought I'd start a new series of brushes for Photoshop to help generate the various elements that go into a texture, particularly human and animal forms. For this first installment--our 19th collection of brushes for Photoshop--I've put together 20 individual tools for creating hair and fur effects.

The brushes
This is actually our second collection of hair/fur brushes. The first was geared more toward 2D compositing, which, certainly, these new brushes will also work for. But in particular I wanted this collection to include several brushes that would be good for model texturing, especially for creating body hair, which, of course, is better suited for texture maps that head hair. So to this end I've put together a variety of brushes for creating a wide range of hair effects, from short and curly hair to long and wild. Each one includes its own set of dynamics, which you can change to suit your needs.



Here are some examples from this collection, showing the brushes on a skin texture and using just a few strokes. The brushes' dynamics take care of the rest.
