Hi all, this tutorial is ment for people who have been into photoshop for a few months and want to get some cool backgrounds, so for those of you who are experts I dont recommend picking this tutorial apart, because I made it for beginners.
Ok! Lets start off with opening a document, it can be any size, but I used 500X500.
Step 1: Make sure your foreground and background colors and black and white, doesnt matter in what order though. Then go to Filter>Render>Clouds and you should get someting like this, but it wont be exactly like it:
Step 2: Go to Filter>Pixelate>Mezzotint and use the setting medium strokes and you should get something like this, but remember it wont be exactly the same:
Step 3: Go to Filter>Blur>Radial Blur and use the settings:
Ammount: 100
Blur method: Zoom
Quality: Best
And you should get something like this, but it still wont be exactly the same:
Step 4: Now to color this thing, for a cool blue warp effect, press Ctrl+U and use the settings:
Hue: 191
Saturation: 25
Lightness: 0
You can mess around with those settings but for the ones I put up there you should get something like this, but remember it will not look exactly the same:
Step 5 Go to Filter>Noise>Reduce noise and use the settings:
Strenth: 100%
Preserve details: 0%
Reduce color noise: 100%
Sharpen details: 0%
Remove JPEG artifact: Not checked.
And you should get something like this, but not exactly the same:
And there you have it! A slick space warp effect.
