Have you ever seen one of those ever so great grunge sigs?
Tired of random grunge sigs that don't help you at all?
Look no more!
Behold the ulitmate grunge tutorial!
__________________________________________________ ___
Make a 350x150 transparent image with 72 res
Press D and then go to Filter -> Render -> Clouds
Press Ctrl + Shift + N then set the layer to Soft Light and then press B and open up my grunge set or what you want
Randomly dab the new layer with black grungey brushes, then press Ctrl + J then go to Edit -> Transform -> 180* you should have something like this:
Now press Ctrl + J
SAVE YOUR WORK you will hate yourself if something happens!
Grab a cool image I am using this from GameWallpapers.com:
Crop the guy's face and resize accordingly
Add him to the image in a new layer between Layer 1 and Layer 1 Copy
Make sure Layer 2 is selected and press Ctrl + Shift + U
Set Layer 1 Copy to Lighten and the Opacity to 50% you should have something like this:
Go to Layer -> Flatten Image
Press Ctrl + B
Add these values:
Shawdows:__0 | 0 | -15
Midtones:___ 0 | 0 | 40
Highlights:___100 | 100 | 0
Feel free to change anything but keep in mind, we want a grunge not a rainbow. I got this:
__________________________________________________ ___
[ Optional ]
Create a font text any size, I used Arial at size 48pt
Right click the text layer and go to Blending Options...
Drop Shadow - Default
Inner Shadow - Size: 3, distance: 1, Default
Bevel & Emboss - Size: 0, Soften: 0, Default
-- Contour - Deafult
Satin - Blending Mode: Normal, Colour: White, Default
Pattern Overlay - Pattern: Clouds (bottom right), Default
Stroke - 1px, colour: black, Default
Whew! one last stride!
Turn the text layer into a normal raster layer
Colour is what you want and you should get something like this:
DONE! Any questions? email me @ Forgotten@sds-clan.com or visit SDS-Clan.com!
