Finding a simple grass brush - finding the old version of brushes in photoshop

Question

I have returned to compositing in photoshop and want a single type blade of grass brush.  I am puzzled by the brushes as I am sure the brushes used to appears in small boxes and some had a simple couple of blades of grasses, now the brush grasses are chunks.  Can anyone tell me where these old brushes have gone and how I can get back.

Adding to Nancy's comment, you need the Legacy brushes

After loading the Legacy Brushes, you'll find it has a bunch of sub-groups, so the easiest way to find the grass bruashes is to use the search bar. You can see that Search also found a preset in Kyles Megapack. There are around 700 presets in that group, and it's a nightmare finding individual presets in a group that large without using the search bar.

BTW I am sure you know that the grass preset uses Foreground Background jitter, so set both colours accordingly. I started with darker greens and built up the effect with lighter greens.

If you want a more random, and untidy lawn, try checking 'Flip X Jitter' at the bottom of Shape Dynamics.

We'd love to see your lawn when you've grown it. Probably best not to water your keyboard.
