Hi,
Can anyone help me with a brush for photoshop that is similar to this style, made in procrete? (I dont know the name of the brush it in procreate) I have looked all around internet, just to find brushed that are more static stippled. The brush will be used on shadows and highlights like in the reference.
Any ideas?

I am looking for a brush as well, maybe its not a brush but made with filters etc. This is what it looks like. Can someone help me create this, please?? I have searched for grunge brushes, sponge brushes, and splatter and ink brushes but have not found anything close. I am in desperate need of creating this.
What are you actually trying to achieve?
• You could simply make a Brush from the element.
What brush did you show me above? That is the one that I want.

I removed the text and logo, inverted black and white and defined a new Brush Preset based on the image you posted.
@Mona3319 do you realise that you could easily make a brush preset from your graphic?
You need to invert it and paint over the logo with black, and then use Edit > Define brush preset.
It's only 500 odd pixels, so probably not big enough, but you could upscale and sharpen it.
Something else you could do is give the brush 100% Angle jitter in Brush Settings, which will rotate the brush every time it is stamped down
You are going to create a brand new brush preset which you'll make from your t-shirt graphic.
When you use Edit > Define Brush Preset anything that is black will be included, and everything that is white will remain transparent. So:
Crop down to just the graphic, and invert it (Ctrl i)
Draw a loose selection around the text and logo with the Lasso tool, and fill with black (Alt Backspace)
It needs to be a decent size, so use Image size (Ctrl Alt i). Lets make it 2000 pixels.
It's going to be a bit muddy after the resize, so sharpen it to firm up its outline (Use Unsharp Mask to avoid fringing).
Then go Edit > Define Brush Preset give it a name and you are done.
You can stamp that directly to your project, or you can add some settings.
In Brush Settings >> Shape Dynamics give 100% Angle Jitter
Now the brush will be rotated between every stamp down, but because you'll have probably made the brush smaller, its outline will be less jagged.
You can use Scattering > Scatter Jitter to make the brush move randomly between each stamp, but don't go too high or you'll separate each stamp down. Use the preview window at the bottom opf the panel as a guide.
The Photoshop Brush Engine can be a lot of fun. You can't break anything by experimenting, and it is an incredibly useful tool to have in your Photoshop box of tricks.
If you want to keep any Brush Settings you apply, you need to save the preset again via the Brush Settings pop-out menu (three bars top right corner). That will keep it safe untill you ether delete it, or do a major Photoshop update. Tou keep it forever you need to export it ether as a single preset, but usually as a group.
In the Brushes panel, select your new brush presets, and group them. Give the group a name.
Select your new group in the Brushes panel, and in its pop-out menu choose Export Selected Brushes
This will save them to a .abr file that you can keep forever, or share with friends, or sell on Brusheezy etc.
I used the Lasso tool to draw a selection around the graphic, and filled it using Alt Backspace.
It does not matter how you do it, or even the order you do it, so long as you end up with the intended preset in Black, and surrounding area white or transparent.
i.e.
I'm using a fully hard white brush below. When done invert to make it black (Ctrl Alt i)
It really is a lot of fun. If I make a spidery shape like below, and define it as a new brush preset.
Make background and foreground colours bright and saturated.
Add 100% Hue Jitter, and tick Apply per tip
Increase brush spacing (I used 20%)
you can have all sorts of fun making garish brush strokes.
Jesus's Photoshop Training Channel tutorials are some of my favorites. Enjoy!

I'll second that. I love that he has started a more advanced series of videos, like how to make Parametric Filters. He always manages to include a solid gold gem or two that's new to me. I also love that he is now working with Lisa Carney, and that she has enthused about how much time he is saving them.
This is a good example. They did an amazing session together at MAX last year, but I was unable to find it last time I looked. I'll have to check ProDesignTools to see if Jim has cataloged the sessions from last year.
Once i have this splatter the way I want, I want to subtract my logo from it.
Can you tell me what you did in the second layer? I see a mask but I am not sure what you did there. Also, I would like to subtract a logo and not text, not sure if the process is the same. I just always see a text layer used in these explanations but I can never find someone using an actual logo. Does the logo need to be a certain file extension? Sorry I'm such a newbie at this. So my logo would be either a png or a psd. I would like to have my paint in white at this time. The green would be my tshirt. So I would like to have the black part of my GOAT logo subtracted from my white. So you can see my green tshirt color where the black is on my GOAT logo. Did I explain that correctly?
