This free photoshop tutorial article focuses on putting a unique effect called grunge effects in your photos and images. This is one of the tricks used in making horror pictures and gothic scenes.
To get you started in grunge manipulation, you’ll need the Photoshop’s Blending Modes and Eraser Tool. First, you have to select a picture with a dark and mysterious theme around it. Then, select the textures that will work well with the picture you have chosen. You should take some of your time here because this is one of the important parts of the tutorial. You can also choose about two textures in order to achieve the effect that you want. Texture is very important and one of the absolute necessities in creating a successful grunge effect for your image. Keep in mind that the higher the quality of texture you choose, the better its effect will be, for the image you’re creating. You can use imagery of cracks in the earth and walls; you may also use rough nature textures or cracked and crumpled ones.
After choosing the suitable textures, concentrate heavily on the face of your picture than the rest of the body. Take the texture image you have chosen.
Concentrate heavily on the face of your image than the rest of the body for this step. Import one texture image, resize and position it around the middle of the face. Get rid of the unnecessary effects in your textures using both the large soft brush and the Eraser Tool. You can do this at around 100 pixels. Complex areas of your texture can be done up by zooming in with a magnification of about 400% and use a smaller soft brush of about 8 pixels. When you have already adjusted it well enough to suit you, change the Textures layer Blending Mode to Multiply.
Import the other texture into the workspace, resize it and apply the Overlay blending option. Do the same procedures as you have done to the first texture. Don’t get impatient with this because doing this may really be quite time consuming if you’re not used to it. After you have finished the earlier procedure, duplicate the layer to enhance the texture.
