Using abstract images to add texture

Friday, June 20th, 2008 @ | Background Effects, Effects, Masks, Tutorials

A really useful video which shows you how to add texture to your digital paintings by adding abstract imagery. The imagery that you add, does not need to be an actual real life image of the effect you are trying to create. This example shows how an image of flooring can be used to create an uneven rough effect on clothing. Using layer masks to create this effect means that this is a non-destructive process, allowing you to go back and edit the image at any time.
