this is a continuation of deelo's bullet holes mini-tutorial. Was dinkin around with brush settings and I got this.
Kudo's original Bullet holes.
1. File > New (Any Size, I used 500.250 px), Any background,
2. Choose a rather small-sized Soft Edges brush. (I used 21px),
3. Open up Brushes Pallete,
4. You can uncheck the Shape Dynamics it doesn't matter,
5. Scattering, Scatter 280% Control Off. Leave the others at default,
6. Texture Now this is up to you, pick any pattern that suits you the most. I picked the default Bubble Pattern.
7. Ok back to the document, Create a New Layer
8. Paint using your newly created brush using black as Foreground color, OMG Bulletholes!
15. Optional: Filter > Sharpen > Unsharp Mask both layers, play around with the settings
[heres where i added onto it for bloody gashy-ish effect]
16. Pick a dark crimson color. If it isn't bloodish enough you can darken with image>adjust> Brightness Contrast or ctrl-B (color balance) when the main stuff is over.
17. Brush pallete
18. uncheck shape dynamics
19. check scattering, texture, dual brush
20. my brush settings are:
Scattering: 295% Both axes
Count: 1%
Count jitter: 86%
Texture: bubbles 25%
Mode: Overlay
Depth: 15%
minimum depth: 50%
Jitter: 0%
Control: off
Dual brush: (soft edge works with any size)
diameter: 13%
spacing 25%
scatter: 209 (can either check or uncheck Both Axes)
Count: 1%
21: right click alter pixel width is quick and easy to adjust overall size. I have found that when just narrow enough it gives a nice acute clean cut look.
Works great in tandem with grunge brushes. That banner there is just something I threw together real quick for somebody in another forum.
