Textured Brushing
Textured abstract brushing in Photoshop
Hey, in this tutorial I will teach you how to make texutred and semi-detailed brushing that can be used in your abstract pieces.
1. Open Photoshop, and make a new document around 500x500 or a little bigger. Fill your document with black.
2. Take your brush tool (B) and press F5. You should have this:
Change your brush size to about 100 and check the box that says Texture. Choose a grungy picture for your texture, something like this:
3. Go ahead and close the brush pallette, and make a new layer. Make white your foreground (D, X) and start making some dots with your brush. Make sure to spread them out, kinda like I did.
4. Now take your smudge tool (R), and choose a grungy brush with 50-70% strength.
Start smudging the edges of your dots so it looks somewhat like this. Be careful to not smudge the center so we have some texture left.
5. Now, go to Filter > Distort > Wave, and leave it at the defualt settings. Immediatly after that go to Edit > Fade Wave, and choose 50% opacity.
6. Now go to Edit > Transform > Perspective, and grab of the outermost sqaures and screw around with it until you get something similar to this:
7. Lower the opacity just a little bit so that it looks good on your render. All you have to do to finish off this brushing is to make alot of these, and posistion them to your desire. After making some more, and posistion them, this is what I got:
As an example, here is a picture I've used this style of brushing on:
