This tutorial goes over how to take the seamless texture you created from Lesson 2, and add dirt and age to it to make it look like a better texture. This uses skills you have learned already and introduces the Brush System:

This tutorial is just over 30 minutes long.
Assignment:
Take the texture you created in Assignment 2, and add dirt and grime and interest using techniques you are shown in the third tutorial and previously. In addition to the method of making a rusty nail as I did in the tutorial, you can try something like take a specific feature from an existing photo (such as a crack, a clump of grass, a rivet, nail, etc.), and putting this into your seamless texture.
I will make a thread tomorrow to post a screenshot of "before" and "after" for your assignment. We will crit them as a class when they are posted, so keep them all to one thread, so everyone sees everyone else's work.
Please post any questions pertaining to the assignment or class in this thread.
Resources:
Use your assignment from Lesson 2 as a base, or use someone else's from the class.
You can find Brushes at:

There are also lots of cool things to take a look at later, but for right now, just download a few of the brushes.
Please contact me or post here with any questions, issues, or suggestions. All assignments should be in by July 9.
Thanks.
