[ Update: This resources joined the default patterns in Krita 2.9 and above. You probably don't need to install it, just go to the pattern, they should be already installed ]
Since few days, there is a lot of activity around the 'textured' brush feature started by Boudewijn Rempt and continued lastly by
Dmitry Kazakov ( read the bug-tracker topic about it for more infos ) for Krita 2.7pre-alpha development.
The feature , actually in a development branch, is getting fantastic and excellent.
The default pattern shipped with Krita also need for a little refresh and love, and that's a part I can handle.
