Oct 5, 2009
1. Download this small ghost brush. 2. Double-click on the .abr file. This will open Photoshop. 3. Create a new document 2400 x 1400 px wide. 4. In the Tools Palette, click on the Brush Icon. 5. Open the Brushes Palette. The Ghost Brush will be the last item there. 6. Click on “Brush Tip Shape” to the left of the palette, and adjust the Spacing to 130%. Click on the “Create New Brush” icon, then name and save the brush. 7. Select black as your foreground color, press shift, and draw a horizontal line with the ghost brush. Include 10 ghosts in the row. 8. Use a round brush with a 2-px diameter, select white as your foreground color, and scribble freely on the row of ghosts to create a distressed effect. 9. Select the row with the Marquee tool. Click on the “Create New Brush” icon on the Brushes Palette, name and save the brush. Again, click on “Brush Tip Shape”, adjust the Spacing to 130, and name and save the brush one last time. 10. Color the background black, select the Brush tool (“b” on the keyboard), and select orange as your foreground color. Paint neatly for clean patterns. Paint in crazy swirls for a more grungy feel. Let the strokes to overlap – paint over areas you have already covered for maximum effect. Play around with the Color Dynamics and Angle Jitter in the Brushes Palette, too.
