Photoshop always has these hidden Easter eggs 😂. I started teaching Digital Design 2 years ago and already have 50+ students industry certified and it’s because professionals like you. Students like to be taught techniques like this and not using photoshop to just place test like Microsoft Word.
Hi Brady, I enjoyed this tutorial - I gave it a go by following your instructions and it worked well - thanks! I too am trying to figure out how to export or save just the text with the nice patterns in it - without the background. Is there any easy way you can recommend to do this?
Loving your videos - excellent quality and explanations! I want to get better at using your masking techniques. Wondering how you think about Clipping Masks versus Layer Masks and when is the right time to use one versus the other… Keep up the great work and thanks for the textures!
Never used 'Blend If' before. How would that work with printed artwork on a t-shirt. Seeing the weave of the garment through the 'printed' artwork. Same technique?
I love this, only problem is that my weapon of choice is after effects 😢. Is there a way you can do this in after effects ? Or do you have tutorials on textures (still) in after effects ?
There isn't a thumb-up big enough for this tutorial! WOW! I'm using Photoshop since version 4.0 but I have to admit there are gaps in my overall knowledge of it. At minute 8:00 I discovered the "blend if" layer style for the first time and it's really awesome. Also I wasn't aware of the existence of the double arrow you can split in half!!! It's totally AMAZING!!! Thank you very much for this. Today I've learned something of value.
I love your teaching type, you should tutorials for AE and PS for total beginners. I swear I will watch every single second of it. you are such a great tutor
Thank you so much for these videos. You are a great teacher and I’ve learned more from your videos on textures and layering than the whole of RU-vid prior to finding your channel. Liked and subscribed and bell notification set 👍🙏
I've been looking to make water, liquid from scratch in photoshop. Also how to make a glass picture look perfectly transparent against any backgrounds. That would complete some of my puzzles.
Working my way through these amazing tutorials and being from Belfast in N. Ireland I was surprised to see it pop up in this vid but I’m interested why Belfast is associated with Grunge?
Very cool! The first handful of tutorials I had this idea of doing city names of any friends around the world - so it was a little shout out to a friend in Belfast!
@@Texturelabs As soon as I saw this I thought it was inspired by the abandoned ship-building yard in Belfast, which would feature al of these concrete, decay, rust textures.
Using a layer mask should show through to the bottom layer... maybe the mask just needs more black to show more of the background, or maybe i'm misunderstanding the question...
Another way to apply a texture is, use a texture with a transparent background on top off you element/object (they have to bee in the a group together) Then you go to Blending option and set Fill Opacity to 0% and Knockout to Deep (on the texture) The texture will now knock out the part of the element there are below it (in the same group) The good thing is that you can stack mulit textures layers (with the Blending Option) on top of you obejct and then turn on and of the eye on the diffent texture layer if you want to use the texture or not, and move the textures around. (the transpart part/background of the textures work like White in a mask, The soild coloured part of the textures work as Black in the mask, The semi transpart part of the texture works as grey in the mask) you are also able to turn the texture layer opacity down if you want less of a knock out.
@@Texturelabs you are welcome. it is 1 of my favourites ways too apply textures to a artwork. Beacuse you can make a photoshop templet file with lets say 30 textures layers, that you can turn on and off, the finish result has never to be the same because you can make so many combinations and therefore you can use the psd templet file again and again. it should be in every print designer tool kit :) Becuase you are able to apply textures fast to a atwork. eg it is really good for freelance clinet work.
The walking dead has a really cool text effect where the bottom is grassy and the top is rusty... how do we make that considering masking are black and white?
I like how they've made the logo more and more messed up every season... I think I know the look you mean, my guess is it's using a clipping mask to get some really nice grungy rust and grass photography into the letters
@@Texturelabsyes! The one towards season 9 or 10 i think have more green in them. would you be up for making a tutorial on that? It would be so popular!
My guess is it's pretty close to the clipping mask in this tutorial, just a matter of having the right image to paste in there! Will take an extra look at those ones though and see if I can figure out what else is going on...
