Brushes: 26 Compatibility: Photoshop 7+, CS-CS6, CC Photoshop Elements 2+ GIMP 2.2.6+ Description: Various images of snow and snowflakes. This includes. Nov 29, 2011 - To help you create beautiful designs with less effort, I have gathered a nice collection of free snow brushes. You can of course create.

Quick Tip: Create multiple layers of snow and change your brush size to make snow look close & far! To make snow, simply choose white as your foreground color and paint with this custom Photoshop Brush. Remember that real snow is completely random, so try to simulate that with this brush. Create a few layers and paint snow on each layer, making the brush larger and smaller. For more added variation, change the opacity of the different snow layers to make some of the snow look more visible and some less visible.

What are Photoshop brushes? At its most basic, the Photoshop brush tool is used for drawing lines and shapes in any color on a layer in your document using strokes. After selecting a brush, you can draw simply by clicking the left mouse button a single time, or by holding it down and dragging your cursor around the page to create multiple marks with a single stroke.

In today’s episode, we show you that all you need is a custom brush and some blurs to create your own winter wonderland. Follow this link to our website, where you can download our Phlearn Snow Brush: Custom Brush Creating a brush from scratch is simpler than you might think! Create a new document (500 x 500 pixels is great) and then create two round shapes apart from each other with the Elliptical Marquee tool.

Click Shift + Delete on a new layer to fill them with black. These will end up being our snowflakes later on. Make sure to select Edit — Define Brush Preset to turn your dots into a brush. We can then go back into the image document and select the brush tool. Right click to bring up all of the brushes and select the one we just made! Next, go to Window — Brush.

This will bring up all of the brush settings we need to make our dots look like actual snow. Here, we adjust elements such as the size, angle, and roundness jitter to create a more random look. We also increase the scattering and opacity jitter.

Piles of Snow A huge part of making our image look realistic is using multiple layers of snow (literally!). We can use our first layer to create the snow farthest in the distance. These snowflakes will be smaller and should be created with a smaller sized brush. The next layer will consist of snow that is closer to the camera.

This means that it can be painted onto the ground and the subject. The next layer will have larger snowflakes, and so on and so forth. 5 layers is a good number, but every image is different and this may vary. Blurry Blizzard Without a blur, our round flakes look quite Photoshopped. By going to Filter — Blur — Gaussian Blur, we can select whichever amount of blur looks best for the image. This technique looks great and can be used on all of the layers of snow. To create the illusion that the snow is actually falling, we can also add a motion blur to the snow closest to the foreground.

You can erase and move as you please! Don’t be afraid to duplicate the layers and move them around to adjust the position of the snow. We can also press E for the eraser tool to eliminate distracting flakes.
