Description I've had a look for brindle tutorials across dA and, while there are a few, they all rely very heavily on Photoshop filters which I feel is inappropriate for such an organic subject. Therefore, I sat down and made my own. It's a very fun technique, at least on smaller pieces. I don't know how it would be for larger pieces, but you're free to have a bash (I hope it doesn't get too repetitive).

Sorry for the huge file, but tutorials traditionally are huuuuge.

I hope this helps you, and please link me to any pieces you make using this technique - I'd love to see! Do bear in mind that this is far from the only way to do brindle - it's just my way. There must be a thousand other ways, but if this works for you then that's marvellous.

I don't think this needs a mature content warning for one little f-bomb, do you?

Oh gosh that picture. Looks like what I used to be when I was in Kindergarten 17 years ago. xD
Me: "I F**CKIN' LOVE COLOURING."
Other kids: "Meh."

You could probably use the same technique in Gimp (I don't know for certain, I've never used Gimp). If you don't have it, it can be downloaded free here - [link]
