How to make a distressed effect in Photoshop

[@kristinakelm8909]

10 months later I am still coming back for this tutorial. It's crazy how easy it is to forget the step by step how to do this. Thank you again

[@stacispeerhas7709]

I've literally looked for months for a way to do this and you have solved it and saved me further aggravation. Thank you so much for this very clearly explained video on how to do this! Much appreciated.

[@preferredprinterz7348]

I was looking for a tutorial on how to accomplish this effect. This is the best tutorial for the distressed look that I found on KZbin. Thanks so much!

[@TallFrost]

I watched a bunch of other videos. Yours is the first one I was able to follow. Thanks so much!

[@kunaori]

Thank man! Super clean and easy to follow tutorial!

[@LeiaHarrison]

Keep coming back for this tutorial, it's crazy how I keep forgetting the steps! Only thing I find happening now, is that if you need to start over or the texture isn't in the right place, the steps don't work unless you shut down Photoshop and reopen to start again.

Great video. Any tutorial about how to distress only borders and leave the center of image clean?

[@TallFrost]

Sorry. Haven't logged on for a while. If you haven't found your answer, take your distress effect and select a sqaure or whatever shape you want to cover most of your image. Mask that out first. Then select the remaining--which should be a border--and complete.

Thank you for this tutorial. Super clear instructions and perfectly paced..

[@johncrestani8708]

this is helpful. thank you. are there ready distressed material on the internet?

[@TallFrost]

There are a lot of companies that will sell things you can use for the distressed effect. Places like shutterstock come immediately to mind. You can make your own simply photographing rust, wood grain, rocks, etc and blowing out the photo

You are welcome!

Is there any way of doing this in firealpaca/mediabang? I'm just starting out.

[@TallFrost]

I haven't played with those, so I am not sure. I imagine there has to be a way if you can do layers and masks

[@Walking_with_ec]

So I have an older version than yours I guess and it doesn't give me the invert mask option which is very aggravating

THANKS A MILLION, JUST WHAT i NEEDED!

[@oldjoants]

Thanks so much! Great tutorial. Gonna use your rust image to try this out, thanks for providing that as well.

[@TallFrost]

Glad it helped

[@pkilla617]

Great video...

[@charkihakim2367]

Thank's

[@nickolauscolon]

Issue i'm having is the rust pattern is staying black and not turning white like it does with yours even after the invert

[@TallFrost]

Do you mean when you are changing the contrast? If so, just change where you have the levels. 01:20 Also, you made it grayscale first, right?
