I’m back with some photoshop shapes that I made using one of my favorite photographs, Old Sticker on an Electrical Box, which can be found on my Deviant Art Account
HERE. I made some levels adjustments, and then selected several cracks, imported and traced them in Illustrator, then brought the resulting paths back into Photoshop to create custom shapes. I also used some sidewalk and dirt crack photos that I recently took around the house. I love vectors because they take such a tiny space on your hard drive and you can make them as huge or small as you want without loss of quality. Play with layer styles, blend modes, opacities, and create some great grungy papers and elements! I also included the png files for those who can’t use the .csh for Photoshop or PSE. about half of the .png files are 3600 x 3600 so you can just turn them into an overlay over your favorite paper. The preview doesn’t really do them justice, these are really cool ya’all! Download and play with them!
