Tips: using brushes with Inkscape

In another follow-up to Máirín's tutorial about Grungy Brushes, I showed an alternate way to create those using Inkscape only. But is kind of weird to create brushes with Inkscape only to use them with GIMP so I wrote a few tricks about using brushes with Inkscape.

  6. hi, I will be reading more of your blog as I've always liked inkscape.

    Now that I have a drawing tablet I am disappointed by the brushes though! Much less configurable for pressure responsiveness than gimp.

    "Brushes in a vector graphics application (like Inkscape) are not as powerful as brushes in a raster graphics application (like GIMP)" - Doesn't seem like it has to be that way! Well I mean, there are some inherent limitations but ...
