Make the brush to the size you want, then hit enter.

What wheybags said.

Also, if you want some good tutorials you should check out interlopers:

Can’t tell from so far away, but have you got 3D wireframe or 3D textured on?

i got 3d textured on

Right Click on your block in one of the 2d views and click create.

i have done that

It’s either on wireframe or you haven’t created the brush yet. Otherwise, something’s not right.

It does indeed seem like it’s wireframed…

I was messing around in Hammer today and it was doing to exact same thing. Try clicking on the camera screen and go to View -> 3D Texture or something along those lines. It took a few times of pressing it but it eventually worked for me.
