Killer Charcoal. Charcoal imitation brushes for Photoshop CS5+ – by Fausto Hault

I created this brush set to emulate traditional charcoal and graphite drawings.

As of V1.23 This Set Includes

  • 21 charcoal imitation brushes with custom brush patterns made from scanning real graphite and charcoal.
  • Choose between tool preset .tpl and .abr format.
  • 3 smudge brushes.

Brushes are organised into flat, render and texture catagories. Flat brushes give the effect of charcoal on its side, render brushes are suitable for detailing and texture brushes are for getting messy. Smudge brushes are used to smooth out texture and blur edges. Some brushes have  4k patterns applied to try to minimize obvious pattern tiling.

For reference the PC specs i use these brushes with are AMD FX 8350 cpu, 12GB DDR3 ram, GTX 960 graphics card.

If you have any problems just message me and i will do my best to get back to you.

Release Notes

  • Added an .abr format support.
  • Added 2 more render brushes with a less noisey texture. useful for skin.
  • Various performance tweaks.
