    These tutorials have reignited my old love for Photoshop - before it was mainly commercial work. Not that I don't love the work I do for my clients, but this takes me back to art school and doing art for art's sake. Thanks!

      Right on... ya, I had a second wave of interest in Photoshop starting a few years ago... Seeing it through new eyes after working primarily in AE and Maya for a living. Pretty fun stuff once you start to dig into it!

    Excellent tutorial, Brady. After watching this, I started binge watching many other of your tutorials. After visiting your website and seeing the content you were offering, I decided to support the site. I have purchased small texture packs in the past, but am blown away at the content you provide and the instruction that you give here on CZcams. It was a very easy decision to support what you are doing. Keep it up.

    Great job. You can use blendif with the underlying image to bring in just a touch of the original, which will help fill in some of the detail. I really like this.

    • @Texturelabs

      Good call! I also found using the original on top set to Pin Light (a blending mode I almost never use!) does a nice job of just filling in the sharp blacks and whites

When I click on layer and go to rasterize layer, it is greyed out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    While brush is way too simplistic, the technique itself is absolutely stellar. For the longest time I avoided AHB, because of my laziness to learn what it is, but your videos, as always, inspire to try something new and experiment with it for yourself. Big upvotes for your dedication.

    Is there a way to reduce the "area of effect" of the brush without reducing the size of the "strokes"? I'm unfamiliar with brushes in Photoshop but I didn't see anything in the brush settings that seemed relevant.
    Really cool tutorial, though! This is my first time hearing of the Art History Brush and it's inspiring.

    Great tutorial Brady thanks as always! Now if only Photoshop could make a realistic/reliable outline AI tool with clean inking tool for just ink line work...like manga/comics have etc....that would be a massive time saver! I've tried many so called "ink sketch plugins" they all fail it's just taking a harsh threshold filter and creating ink outlines around the edges. One day!

      Cool thanks! What I did was record using the brush in an action (with Allow Tool Recording enabled). Then played it back and just screen captured! I ran the action a few times, which gets slightly different results every time. Then stacked them in After Effects and cycled through the layer visibility, so they'd kind of jump around and look like new sketches on each frame. Haha, long answer!

    Photoshop, along with its compatible plugins and many processes are a marvel. However, the tutorial (above) doesn't really live up to its claim of producing realistic pencil sketches. The process described may give some people the sense of being a fine artist; but the result so often with digital tools employed to create "fine art looks" is mechanical and artificial.
