Well after hawk posted that little tut there i decided to try it out. I used two different ways for the bg, first i used Difference clouds with grunge brushes on the sides, that werked out really really well i thought, then i started witha blank layer and used jus normal cloudes. Thats when i saw what he was talking about. Merged those two layers and blended them and such. Then i went and made my grung on top of that and added a little picture. Not one of my best, but one of the new ones for me that i am not too ashamed of (hey i am rusty!) lol. ![](http://www.mdipi.com/sorry/brownGrunge.jpg) ---

dippy, the curved black lines are really really nice… i like them a lot… actually the whole pic is good except for 2 things 1] I don’t really like the color… something about it just doesn’t seem right 2] The pic is just sitting there… ya need to like blend it in or something I’m definately not a grunge expert, but that’s what caught my attention, still I think its a great peice ---

i like it, but there isnt a focal point. its just random brushes and grunge everywhere. so its lacking. but keep trying 🙂 ---

@Red and 28: i agree 100%, this was really just an experimental thing. nothing that i am going to show. I dont like the pic just had it around and said ahh why not. i will try some stuff with it later. No really foucus cause well, it was like i said just an experiment with a new way. I hate the colour but black was like eww… @Alex: Thanks! ---

:beam: , nice… i like it, though i agree in the fact that there is no focul point (mine is the eye, as you may have noticed :beam: ) also that pic did also stand out to me, as 28 said, try to blend good luck! if you do decide to modify it hawk ---

not a bad pic. As said before, the pic could use some blending in; and also maybe the ‘cursive’ elements of it. Just seems to sit right on top of the rest of the image and doesn’t posess much grit IMO. Good stuff tho 🙂
