cracked paint and photos

[Mr KWA]

OMG who knows how do to this??? I can't believe how easy it was once i figured it out. I want to simply kick myself for not knowing how to do it. GRRRRRRRR

[tachy]

is it a photoshop combination of a photo of cracked paint combined with the girl's photo, just messing with layers?

[Mr KWA]

it is a photo shop effect and takes like 3 minutes to do depending on the detail of the cracked image. Two layers on this images above but others have more layers. I was fasinated with it when i saw one better than the one I posted and spend a few hours messing around until it dawned on me how to do it. LOL i felt so stupid when I realized how to do it. I will post a play by play when i get the chance.

I like this effect and have seen it done with the clone brush and messing with the opacity of it....

Ok so yeah I am blown away with this style. I am so having too much fun. you can take this an do so many things with it. I feel like I am behind the times here. LOL

I think I remember doing this a few years ago...I put a sign on the side of a building and made it look old. Like most things in PS, I've forgotten more than I remember.

I think it is pretty cool. Only thing I don't like about it... your model looks really pretty and I would like to see her not peeling

LOL. this comment will be a TAD bit off subject. OMG I went out for my nightly bike ride and as wide as the road is and as thin as my tire is I can not believe that a small piece of metal stuck right in the middle of my tire. So my bike ride became a brick walk as the fast aproaching almost black cloud crept up behind me. LOL

It means that I subscribed to the thread to refer to it later.

Cool, Learning something new daily is so interesting. Thank you. Ok so My question is how far behind the times am I on this stuff?

I think you can achieve this with either certain "filters" in photoshop, or some of the plugins from OnOne.

Ok I have no idea of any filter that does this so if you have a detail on one I would jump on getting it really fast.
