I made a Barbed Wire brush. Set Brush Dynamics to "Track Direction" when using it.

Excellent! Thank you racer-x.
Not doing pics because the deadline monster is nibbling my butt at work.

Impressive, racer-x; especially since it's a gbr and not gih.

Thanks a lot @racer-x, Very nice brush!

I wanted to do some coloured barbed wires so I did put the brush in grayscale and added a white BG (colored brush needs to be B&W without any transparency)
it does a nice dark barbed wire, though.
(everything else should be like the original from racer-x)

Here is the brush

Of course I did.....not. lololol

Used the Traveling Salesman flow to create a single line fill and traced the resulting SVG path with the barbed wire. Do a search here for Traveling Salesman and you can get some insight. I just wish there was a way to using any type of single line fill to create these but programmer I'm not.
