Hair with spackled brushes

[jb777]

I am following the tutorial at:
paultosca.com/varga_hair.html

(Skip the Maya Paint Effects section and go straight to Painting the Hair in Photoshop)

Here are the brushes it tells me to use:

I set all the settings like the tutorial said. I also used a tablet like in the tutorial. My problem is that the brushes do not flow correctly. Instead of looking like hair, it looks like sand. :sad: I cant figure out what is wrong.

Extra Information:
Program: Photoshop CS5
Tablet: Wacom Intuos 3

It sounds like the spacing need to be adjusted under Brush Tip Shape. If it was me I'd use fade instead of pen pressure for size jitter.

Thanks alot
That was exactly the setting I needed to change. I would have never thought to click "Brush Tip Shape" to get more settings. It looks like a text heading because there is no checkbox next to it. I spent hours trying to get this right and it was one simple setting.:doh:

Thanks!
