Grunged Beauty



This tutorial was written by Mizteeque on 13th May 2018 and assumes a working knowledge of psp
Written using psp9 but other versions should work just as well
Any similarity to other works is unintentional and purely coincidental
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Supplies needed:

close up tube of choice - I am using the stunning artwork of Very Many
which can be purchased from the store HERE
Mask 0016 from Viviennes Paintbox
My supplies HERE
Font of choice

filters : muras meister, copies

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Open supplies

open blank canvas 700 x 700
floodfill white

c/p close up tube
effects, muras meister, copies, wallpaper rotate, default settings
adjust, blur, radial blur, twirl, strength 44, twirl degrees 40, 
elliptical, h/v offset 0, protect center 10

apply mask
merge group
select all, float, defloat

paste tube again
resize 60/50 ish whatever fits best
invert selection, delete
deselect

duplicate tube
change blend mode on bottom one to luminance legacy
change blend mode on duplicate to screen

Make Miz_Grunged_overlays active
select round the overlays one at
a time, copy and paste onto your canvas
position to your liking all over the tag
including across the tubes face

If you want to change the color I found the easiest way
was to select all, float, defloat, new raster layer
floodfill with color of choice, delete the original

play with the blend modes and opacity settings
duplicate, rotate etc to your liking

The aim is to make a grungy look, but to still be able
to see the tube.

once your happy with it, delete white background layer
merge visible, duplicate

add your name in black, position across middle of tag
select all, float, defloat, invert
on duplicated layer, delete
deselect
delete black name

move name made from duplicate layer to a place of your liking
add a bevel, glass, gradient glow, d/s etc of your choice

add copyright and license information
