Scaling a Brush Preset

Hello, I have been fighting all day long to achieve this, I am almost giving up, almost because my last hope may be there. Let's see if anyone has the knowledge to help me. As my title says, I need to scale down a brush preset, and by that I litteraly mean it, the Size doesn't cut it, it does not give the result I am looking for.

I would like to have a preset half the size of another, but that gives the same look in the end, exactly as if I would have drawn with the bigger size and resized the picture. To illustrate this, I made 2 graphics, hopefully I can get myself understood :

Here is another one, with less explanations :

the most right example is different from the previous one because I loaded a texture image half the size of the others (same pic obviously)

Thanks for any info that could help me to sort this out.

The brushes might be optimized for certain sizes.  I'm not entirely sure.  What kind of brush is it?  I would say the best advice you could get regarding that is from Kyle Webster, who is a mad scientist when it comes to Photoshop brushes.  I don't really know if he posts here,  but you might want to hit him up on twitter and see what he would say.  Sorry I couldn't be of more help

Thanks for your insight, yes of course they are optimized for a certain size, and that is precisely the point, I want to shrink them down so that the result is the same as shrinking the strokes produced by the bigger sizes. Pretty sure its feasable, I do not know how though, did not find the trick.
