How to make wind/smoke/wispy-like VFX textures?

Title says it all mostly. I’m trying to create wind in a slash motion and other ways in general. Something like this:

I would create the lines with a brush then either guassian or motion blur it, create a new layer for the thicker parts, repeat (@Fluorlite told me this)

Would take a few tries to get it right but shouldnt be too hard? I dont know how to tile it though, theres probably a free texture tiling website
