35 Awesome Gimp brushes

I hardly see any posts showing off Gimp Brushes, for those of you who have no idea what Gimp is; Gimp is an image manipulation program similar to photoshop. It is open source and free to download.

Here are a few brushes which will speed up your work and make life easier. Most brushes have been converted from photoshop so dont worry if they say photoshop in the image. Please read the terms before using it.
To install, unzip files into the brushes folder in your GIMP program files (usually C:\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\share\gimp\2.0\brushes in Windows or /home/username/GIMP-2.0/share/gimp/2.0/brushes in Linux) and then restart GIMP.
