My avie pwns yours. Posts: 3,476 Group: Administrator Member #1 Joined: July 6, 2005	Yes like what Yinx said, but the hard thing with grunge is that sometime it doesn't look blended or has no depth you fix this by having a white background make a new layer, brush using black until the whole thing is like black grayish, make another layer brush in white but don't fill it up all white, and you keep doing that back and forth with white to black and black to white using different grunge brushes as well, and it should give you some depth or use the levels ctrl+L.

Posts: 2,660 Group: Official Designer Member #274 Joined: August 5, 2005	the grudge brushes set didn`t work for my version of PS and alot of the brushes on deviantart.com doesn`t either. xP So now I make grudge banners using filters.

this is the right turn wrong universe Posts: 285 Group: Official Members Member #59 Joined: July 12, 2005	You can use the radical gradient with the colors black and white and then smudge it with one of the default 'chalk' brushes with some settings on it. Duplicate and set it on soft light then smudge some more to get some lighting.

secret l0ver Posts: 1,761 Group: Elite Member Member #223 Joined: July 29, 2005	i dont use brushes.. but for the simplest lighting without any effects is duplicate the layer a couple of times and change the topest layer to color dodge and it should give the image a a nice shadow and lighting effect. might even work for grunge banners. might give even grunge more depth and light... i havent tried it for brushes and grunge, etc
