DESIGN AN AWESOME GEOMETRIC SHAPED TYPOGRAPHY WITH GRUNGY BACKGROUND IN PHOTOSHOP
Step 1
Create a new document sized 1200 * 1700px, fill the background layer with black colour. Create a new layer on top of it and grab the brushset we just downloaded and paint some grungy texture as shown below:
The trick here is to set your brush flow and opacity to a reletively low level, both around 30% – 40%, and vary the brushset size when you paint. Also don’t stick with one brushset, try mixing different ones together and see what result that brings you.
If you want to skip this step, you can simply download a copy of this background texture here.
Now we want to make a space for our text and create some depth for the image. To do so, on the texture layer, add the following layer mask to it:
To adjust the lighting contrast a bit, we can add a Curves adjustment layer on top of all previous layers:
and here is the effect so far:
Step 2
Use the font we download before, type and position the text as shown below: (Use a dark gray colour as font colour)
Tips: type the texts on seperate layers, use the free transform tool (Ctrl + T) to rotate and fit them together.
Once you’re happy with the position, rasterise and merge those text layers and apply the following layer blending option to the merged layer:
Drop Shadow
Bevel and Emboss
Gradient Overlay
and you will have the following effect:
Now we’re in the fun part of this tutorial – Duplicate this merged text layer five times, and set each layer’s opacity as shown below:
Use your up and right arrow key on your keyboard, repeatly type them until each layer seperates from each other and form this effect as shown below:
Step 3
Load the selection of the last text layer (hold ctrl + left-click the thumbnail image of that text layer on the layer pallette), and apply the following refine edge settings:
Maintain the selection, create a new layer called “cloud” and render some cloud in it: (Black and White colour)
Duplicate this cloud layer three times, and drag the last text layer on top of the duplicated cloud layer, you will have the following effect:
Duplicate the cloud layer twice, and drag the two layers on top of text layer, change their blending mode to “overlay” and you will have the following effect:
Step 4
Now we can add some colours onto the image to spice it up a bit. To do this, I simply create a new layer called “colour 1″ on top of all previous layers, and grab a big soft round brush and select some colour I like to paint over it:
Change the blending mode of this layer to “overlay”.
I also want to highlight the edge of the grungy background, so I add another layer called “colour 2″ and grab a brown colour brush to paint around the edges:
Set the blending mode of this layer to “colour dodge”.
You can also highlight some part of the text, simply create another layer called “highlight” and grab a white soft round, big size brush and paint over desired area:
Change thie blending mode of this layer to “soft light”.
For final refinement, I added two adjustment layers on top of all previous layers:
Curves
Colour balance
Apply the following mask to the colour balance adjustment layer:
Overall, you will have the following effect:
Ok that’s pretty much it for this tutorial! Of course this doesn’t stop you from enhancing it and put it some your own creativity to it.
I further added some lines and apply some of this brushset around the edge of the text.
Here is my final effect for this tutorial: (click to enlarge)
