25 years here, thing is you have to relearn photoshop all the time since its features are pretty different from what they were a decade ago.

Right! Great stuff!
You are a Photoshop Chaman... You talk directly with the spirit of the program.... I can see you dancing around your computer in the moon light, drums going hard on the background, herbs burning in one hand and eagle feathers in the other, with a jaguar head and skin over your head, waiting for this techniques to be reveal to you, so you can communicate them to us, the simply and common photoshop users... Beyond words. I have my mind completely blown out by you many, many times in your channel. Thank you man, I truly appreciate your work. WOW... Have a great day...!
This is genius! Your ripped paper texture works so well for this. Amazing effect, even more amazing tutorial!

Yes, nothing beats the real thing, but I've been an artist for many decades, having used computer art making software since before Photoshop existed, and this technique absolutely blows my mind. It's not perfect, and it can probably be improved in the details like maybe simulating the depth of the paper and shadows, and then going in and laying down each piece of digital paper individually... but for something super quick and relatively painless, it's nothing short of amazing.
Pure genius! The black, red, green and blue trick was an absolute revelation. Thanks for sharing the knowledge and keep up the superb work🙏

Yup, same except, for over 20 years. I think the problem is I'm self taught and once I figured out how to do something my mindset just stuck at "this is the way you do it" instead of experimenting to streamline more.
I’ve been working on the design industry for 10+ years now, and I’ve been learning again new and useful techniques since I discovered your channel. Also kudos for the quality in content and I want to thank you for what you’re doing. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

You're a Photoshop wizard! These tutorials are always amazing!
Thank you to the author. I've got a little comment too: I've just recently re-discovered Filter Gallery as a proper tool, not just a gimmick. For years I wasted my time on similar outcome by using Illustrator's Image Trace first (it's basically like the cut-out effect but in vector as you know) and then using the outcome for pure vector fills, masked image or even converting the colour areas to masked Groups for Photoshop use. A point to make is that in the last decade the quality of images/working files has gotten much better, and I can remember times when photos often were delivered in the 1000px area, if not less, so some vector magic filled the gaps. As you hint the effect goes well in the 3000+ range.
No matter how long you've been using photoshop YOU WILL learn something new on this channel. It's unbelievable!

Today on 15 th august (independence day of india) , i found your channel(searching for gritty effect) ...... And in your video i just witnessed the freedom of an artist with his never ending imagination...Thanx a lot for all these tutorial....
Fantastic effect and super explanation
Out and out the best Photoshop affects videos on KZread. Concise and clear - learn something new every time you watch over.
What awesome effect--the the texture layer mapping and the ability to adjust the cutout shape sizes with the levels layer makes this effect so versatile. The collage textures are really awesome but you can always do different scribble textures, or water color or even hair patterns and get crazy cool stuff. I love this!!!
This is one of the most impressive photoshop tricks I've ever seen! You are truly a Photoshop genius! Thank you!
This. Is. Madness. Just stepped my PS game by a lot!!! Many, many thanks
I am not gonna use these anytime soon perhaps never. But I admire you for doing the tutorial, cutting the collage and finally posting it for free. That’s something we don’t see that often. Thank you sir, you’ve got a new follower. Peace

I just tried it and it's so mindblowing to use Gradient Maps to work with the Blending mode. Gonna try this effect with stop motion and see what happens
@Texturelabs
2 жыл бұрын
For sure! If you're in After Effects, I tried replicating and it did work. I had to export the gradient map from PS as a LUT, with one tweak - those middle values in the gradient (the red and green) had to have two color points each, so that pure red goes from 20%-40%, then pure green from 55%-77%....
@GEOgraphicdesigner

@@Texturelabs That worked! However the effects are not quite the same because I'm missing the Cutout effect. Do you know if there's an effect like that in AE? Also, how does AE recognize the "Blend If" layers? It worked on RGB colours but not on black, though it was an easy fix with Lighten. If I wanted to import another texture, do I have to go through photoshop "Blend If" then import it to AE?
@Texturelabs
2 жыл бұрын
Ah yup, sounds like the challenges I ran into in AE as well. Cutout is definitely the one big PS advantage. I can't think of anything in AE that would get the same look. I even did some research on how that cutout algorithm works... it's pretty crazy. In some cases, might be worth exporting an image sequence and batch processing the cutout in PS. As for the Blend-if, it's funny, AE will honor the setting if they come in from Photoshop, but there's no way to apply them or even adjust them in after effects (the chrome video from a month or two ago goes into it a little bit). So ya, you'd have to apply to a texture in PS then import as PSD.... As for the gradient map, I wonder if the black point also need two points so that it's black from like 0-10%? But yup, lighten would do it!
