Photoshop tutorial: Cool backgrounds :D

[Satsuma]

Well, being so very bored. I have decided to make this to take up some time.

This is my first tutorial so be nice.

I will show you how to make some pretty cool backgrounds

Anyway

Start



First of all open a canvas with these settings:



Now, set your colours to white and black, with white on top.

Now do this on your first layer:


Outcome:




Now, new layer. And use brushes! Only use a brush "once". Once you've clicked one dont use it again.


Now, new layer, black brushes, and go over the white layer.

Outcome:



Now get your render out, and put it on your sig so far.



Now duplicate the render so it covers the WHOLE canvas. As many as it takes.

Outcome:




Now merge all of the render layers into ONE layer.

And do this:



Use these settings:



Outcome:



Now you need to make the layer overlay.




Now you should have a rather sexy outcome:



But it doesnt look that good yet, so we need to toy around with the colour settings.

Right click on the layer, and click blending options, and toy around until t suits you.



Now you should have a sexy background!!



Thanks for reading,
