Filter/smudge Tutorial - no Brushes ***Render Warning***

Saint_Michael
Step 1: Open up document 320x150

IPB Image

Step 2: Chose a render that you use will be using for your background and as your main image then resize it as well to what ever you wish.

IPB Image

Step 3: Then make enough copies of the render to fill up the background space. Make Sure to deselect the original so not to mess up.

IPB Image

Step 4: Then make a new layer and then go to image and apply image, next deselect all your copy images or if you want you can delete them cause now its just nothing but copies of this background. For now Im just going to deselect my images for now because then maybe something will come up that I could use them again.

Step 5: Next Make about 4-5 copies of the applied image layer that you just did and then deselect all of them except the original and the first copy.

Step 6: Next select your first copy and click on your smudge tool and then click on Size 27 Splatter brush to be used for the smudge and then use the following settings. Then go ahead and start smudging your copy just enough to get the grunge look going on like this.

IPB Image

Then set your smudge layer to overlay and now you should have something like this.

IPB Image

Step 7: Now reselect your second copy and this will be used for the smudge stick effect and use these settings.

IPB ImageIPB Image

Step 8: Then reselect your third copy and then apply these settings for your glass effect.

IPB Image

Ok this is what you should have so far for your filters right now without changing the settings.

IPB Image

Step 9: Make a Copy of your Smudge layer and then move it up top now you have your choice for brush strokes for now I'm going to use crosshatch at default settings.

Step 10: Now starting from your smudge layer using the following layer settings

Smudge Layer: Overlay
Smudge Stick: Multiply
Glass Layer: Darken
Copy of smudge layer: Overlay

Step 12: Now make a new layer then apply image for all the stuff you just did then go to
filters>sharpen>sharpen and then set that to multiply to keep the dark effect going on.

IPB Image

Step 13: Now make a copy of your sharpen layer by pressing ctrl+J then go to filters then to sketch then to halftone and use the default settings. Then set it to Darken as well.

IPB Image

Step 13: Now make a copy of that then do this filter setting filter>pixelate>fragment

IPB Image

Now let’s do a little clean up of all those layers we just made so far. Merge all your Layers from steps 1-10 down and then you should have only four layers left from steps 11-13. Their was that easy to clean up of course it was that’s if you followed all that junk up their Steps 1-13. Ohhh look I made a funny. Now for all you experts out there you could merge steps 11-13 so you would have one layer with everything that you would need like I did. But to make deselect all those other layers or just delete them whatever don't blame me if you mess up that’s if you again followed steps 1-13 tongue.gif Now back to business.

Step 14: Now Make a copy of that layer then reselect your smudge but this time use the cross smudge you can download it Here and then do a complete circle around the copy and then do a copy of more circle type rotations and then set that layer to lighten.

IPB Image

Step 15: Now for the Render effects move your render to the top of the stack now make about 4 copies deselect the first 3 then grab your smudge tool again with cross brushes using the same settings as before with the cross brush and then smudge around the render just enough.

IPB Image

Step 16: No Select your Second render copy and then take the smudge tool again but this time use Chalk 23 and set the Strength at 50% and then smudge the outside just enough that you can still see the render clearly enough then go to filter then to Gaussian set it to 4 and then set it to multiply.

IPB Image

Step 17: go to your next render copy then go to filter>sketch>chalk & Charcoal using the default settings and then set that to Soft Light.

IPB Image

Step 18: you Remember Step 14 well to help blend with the render effect so far duplicate that layer and then use filter>sketch>chalk & Charcoal again and then set that layer to something that will blend well together. Im going to use luminosity with a 38% fill. But here are few examples of different layer properties.

IPB Image
IPB Image
IPB Image

NOTE: Remember by this step you could have something like this not exactly but something like that results will vary depending what other settings you might use.

Step 19: Now for the Final layer for the render put the settings to Color for a blend and then change the opacity to further blend it and it could come out like this.

IPB Image

Step 20:Just Throw a Simple 1px black border around it by making a new layer pressing ctrl+a then go to edit then stroke.

Step 21: Now one of my least favorite steps the Text your. So I say this now sorry you’re on your own with the text.
Best Suggestion do what looks good with the sig overall.

Step 22: This is somewhat easy task, blend everything together to take it to the extreme and then you’re done.

Bonus Step: Make a New layer and then get your paint bucket and choose a color that would best bring out everything that yo have just designed.

NOW FOR THE FINAL PRODUCT YEAH!!!!!

Hmm, i feel that the outcome isn't significant enough. I would have expected such a technique to cover more, or at least not come out so pale. I guess, it depends on what render is chosen, and what blending modes are chosen, and other factors. This technique has potential, just isn't fully mastered.

As much as I like the 'fragmented' look, I, too, am a bit unsatisfied with the final outcome. It just doesn't seem to grab my attention.

Also, on your final product, the blurriness of the render clashes with the harsh and sharp fragments and background. Even the left and right sides of the sig create a little conflict.

And "Render Warning" indeed tongue.gif Seems like you're a fan of the skimpily clad anime girls.

  18. Render Blending
    How to blend a render to your sig in Photoshop (12)
    Okay, this is a relatively simple tutorial on how to blend a render into your signature in
    Photoshop, like this: STEP 1 -- Brush up your background Okay, the first thing you want to do
    is to brush your background. Right now I'm using some grunge brushes. For this tutorial,
    we're going to use black and white, then color it in later, so on your white background, use a
    black brush (or vice versa) to put down your basic brushing. You should end up with something
    similar to this, if you're using grunge.

    most important step. Think about what kind of sig you want to make, and what you want on it. I
