Use Photoshop to express the mottled texture effect

In many digital art designs, we often see such a mottled effect. Many friends like this incomplete effect, such as the screenshot of this web page below.

Here we introduce three methods of making this kind of mottled effect using Photoshop, hoping to help everyone's design. (Here are Photoshop 7.0 examples, please refer to the production for other versions.)

Method 1: Use the splash filter that comes with Photoshop

In Photoshop, select the menu: Filter / Brush Stroke / Splatter to open the Splatter filter.

Filter effect: This filter produces a radial splash of ink, similar to the effect of viewing images through bathroom glass.

Spraying Radius: It is the radius of the splash color block.

Smoothness: It is the smoothness of the transition between splash color blocks.


We make a dynamic background (the method is to make noise and then motion blur), then create a new layer, name it paper and draw a rectangle with the rectangle selection tool, fill it with black, and adjust the position as follows:

Select "Edit / Adjust / Hue and Saturation" as follows to make the paper light yellow:

Perform filter / brush stroke / splatter, set as follows:


Then continue to spray again, set the spray color radius and smoothness to be larger, I set it to 25 and 8, and get the following effect:

Use the magic wand to select the color of the paper, and then reverse selection. Press the Delete key to remove the noise. You can see that the paper is basically made, but the surface of the paper is too smooth, so we use a brush to add some marks to the paper to make the paper more real. Create a new layer and call it Marking. Use the paintbrush to paint some dry and mottled effects.

Here, the mottled paper is finished, we add a lyric poem, it feels good!

Method 2: Use the glass filter in Photoshop

In Photoshop, select the menu: filter / distortion / glass filter, you can open the glass filter.

Glass filter: This filter can make the image look as if it is viewed through glass. This filter cannot be applied to CMYK and Lab mode images.

Distortion: Control the distortion of the image, the range is 0 to 20.

Smoothness: smooth the distortion effect of the image, the range of four 1 to 15,

Texture: You can specify the texture effect, you can choose ready-made frost, block, canvas and small lens texture, you can also load other textures.

Zoom: Controls the scale of the texture.

Invert: Make the dark and light areas of the image switch between each other.

Create a new file (the foreground color is black and the background color is white), execute the cloud command, and save the file as clouds.psd.

Go back to the image we need to process, switch to the channel, create a new channel, then select all, perform the stroke, set the border size by yourself, and then perform Gaussian blur.

Execute menu: filter / distort / glass filter, select load texture in the texture bar, then select the clouds.psd file we just saved in the dialog box.

Then load the channel, go back to the layer, create a new layer, and fill it with white to get the mottled effect:

Method 3: Use the Eyecandy 4000 plug-in filter

EYE CANDY 4000 filter is developed by ALIEN SKIN SOFTWARE company. It contains 23 kinds of filter kits, which can generate endless variety of special effects in a very short period of time. All can be easily realized by EYE CANDY 4000.

We mainly use the JIGGLE (light dance) filter in the EYE CANDY 4000 filter here. If you want to know more about the filter, please visit our filter column.

JIGGLE (light dance) filter: This filter can generate a strong distortion effect on the basis of random flow space. Unlike the distortion filter in PS, the JIGGLI filter is not in a certain axis or uses a wave style To produce a deformation effect, but to produce a more complex deformation effect, so that the selection area appears foamy, gelatinous, fragmented and other special visual effects.

MOVEMENT TYPE (motion type): This parameter is used to set the type of motion, there are three types, namely BUBBLES (foam), BROWNIAN MOTION (Brown motion) TURBULENCE (turbulence);

WARP AMOUNT (distortion amount): the amount of deformation, which controls the degree and amount of distortion of the JIGGLE effect, in pixels, and the value varies from 1 to 1000;

TWIST (winding): on the basis of twisting deformation, then add winding deformation, the value of this parameter changes from 0 to 100, when the value is 0, only WARP deformation When the value is greater than 0, the deformation is WARP and TWIST Overlay effect

SEEMLESS TILE: If this option is checked, a smooth repeated deformation pattern will be generated;

RANDOM SEED: The random effect of the filter.

Now we will use the JIGGLE filter to make a mottled effect, find good materials, or you can make your own, and then create a new layer, named mottled, use the rectangle selection tool to draw a rectangle, then fill in the color you like, and then in the mottled layer Execute the JIGGLE filter, the specific settings are as follows:

Open a graphic and copy it, then while holding the CTRAL key, click the mottled layer to make the graphic selected, execute the "Edit / Paste In" command, and then add text, etc. The final mottled effect is as follows:
