For the custom brushes, I made four of them using the clock photo.

I selected areas with interesting textures from the photo, copied and pasted them in a new document.

step 16 of 17

I set the Saturation to 0 and adjusted the Levels and Brightness to make the texture more visible.

Using Color Range, I made selections from each of the four areas. I further cleaned the selections by erasing unwanted areas from them.

I then saved each of the textures as different brushes.
