[TuT] Simple Texturing with Photoshop
[TuT] Simple Texturing with Photoshop
Since alot of people out there are new, and doesn't know how photoshop work that well, i'll teach you a few things to make your mod look better.
Paint Brushes
Paint brushes are just brushes that are modified to have different shape, size, etc. The symbol is just a paint brush(heh go figure) in your tool box, it should be on the left side of your photoshop. With paint brushes you can use it to decorate your texture mod and make it look better. You can find paint brushes here Browsing Photoshop Brushes on deviantART and you can load them in photoshop like this,
after you click "Load Brushes" go locate your paint brush file that you just downloaded and open them, they should be available to use now. Heres an example of a paint brush mod,
Crappy but we'll go with it since I did it in like 2 minutes. On top you should see "Mode" somewhere, pick different options for different colors, ETC, but I recommend "Overlay"
Color Balance
Color Balance is just changing the color to another color, you can find it by going to "Image" Then "Adjustments" then "Color Balance" but if thats too long, just press CTRL+B. To color balance something, you need a "Selection", a selection is just an area that is gonna be changed and any other areas that is outside the selection cannot be editted unless you deselect the selection. You can make selections by using the Tools "Magic Wand" "Quick Selection" "Elliptical and Rectangular Marquee Tool" "Lasso Tool", or just press M, L, or W. Heres an example of a color balance texture mod.
Just simple ones.

Thank soso ... needed .... as u know i just opened up ps for first time... wo....confuzing without this ty!
You're welcome. 
choobs have no reason to say How do i make texture mods? now
Make sure to add overlays, can use them to make a good mod with little/no editing. Also, you don't need to use load brushes, just open the brush file. Maybe layer masks too.
Otherwise good for the people who don't know how to use photoshop!
