Hello, I'm new to this site. I was just wondering how i would go about making a grunge type box in photoshop. It's hard to explain exactly what i mean. Like a rectangle but the border of it looks like paint splatters etc. I tried doing it with some brushes i have but it didn't come out well at all, It may be the brushes i'm using though i'm not too sure. Hope you can help, Thanks in advance.

ahhh okay.
well what i would do is open up a new document in ps, get your Rectangular Marquee Tool (M) & make a selection. that would be your box. then go edit>stroke putting 4 as your width for the stroke. then do a ctrl+j to copy your box to a new layer & a ctrl+d to deselect your selection. after, do a shift+ctrl+n to make a new layer. drag that layer in-between your Background layer & "Layer 1." select your brush tool & add brushes. & there you go! it would come out looking like this: is that the effect you were looking to do?  EDIT i don't think its too much. it's just that some of the brushes, the splatters surrounding the box, are a tab blurry. |
