Create Beautiful Mystery Grunge Effect in Photoshop Advertisement
In this Photoshop tutorial, I would like to tell how to make a beautiful mystery grunge artwork using some stock images and brushes. It is not very hard work, but it requires some skill and your imagination. This work is very well suited for desktops and time for her creation will not take more than 2 hours. So let’s get started!

Stocks Used: Grunge brush Face stock Mask stock Ornament gold stocks Benny Blanco fonts
Blair Caps fonts Splatter brushes Topaz Clean filter
Final Image Preview
1.Step Create a new document 1300 x 800px. Also making a full black background. Make the middle line using Rulers (Ctrl + R).
2.Step Now we need to place a face picture on the background and processes it. So let’s open a photo and make to 80% of picture size. And put picture like this:
Take the most convenient for you brush and remove some parts in the photo like this:
Create Layer –> New Adjustment Layer –> Gradient Map. Also Click on the “Layer menu” and select the “Create Clipping Mask”. Now select a blend mode for the layer – Multiply and edit the opacity to 79%.
In the same way create new Layer –> New Adjustment Layer –>
Gradient Map. Also Click on the “Layer menu” and select the “Create Clipping Mask”. Now select a blend mode for the layer – Overlay and edit the opacity to 79%.
You should get something like this:
Now create a new selection of eye and remove this selection on both gradients. You have get:
Now, without removing the selection create a new Layer -> New Adjustment Layer -> Brightness/Contrast. Thus we get the editing only for the eye. Like this:
Again, while there is selection creating a new Layer –> New Adjustment Layer –> Hue/Saturation like this:
Finally we obtain the nice green eye:
3.Step We will try to do our work in a vintage-style, to making our work more mysterious, I’ll add a mask on her face. For the mask we will use this image:
Before placing it on our work, I did make cut using pen-tool.
Then move the mask to our work and edit the size in reference to eye like that:
Then cut the parts of the mask, the fingers should cover the mask. For greater realism, make the shadows using “Burn Tool“.
Our mask is too light, to fix it firstly using the same “Burn Tool” make it darker.
Then create a clipping mask of Gradient Map: Layer –> New Adjustment Layer –> Gradient Map. Blending mode: Multiply and 100% of opacity.
Also, make the shadow under a mask, simply create a new layer under a layer of our mask and using black brush create a shadows.

4.Step Well, now we have a nice face with vintage mask, so let’s get continue! I t’s time to make the background! To do this we will use only one brush. Now we need to adjust our main brush. With the help of this brush we will do our background. Select that brush and press F5 to edit that brush.
Well, our brush is ready! Now create a new layer below all the others and paint part of the background as shown below. Draw the background around the girl. Color we used “b2ff79”
Now create a layer above the rest, select the basic color is black and draw a similar brush-line:
Continue to paint until the result is similar: (ps. To create a sharp conversion, I cloned layers)
Now, simply make our brush larger, about 300px., select the color of “121212” and paint like that:
At the same way create on the green part but color select is “98e063”:
5.Step Select the “Vertical Type Tool” and create text “MAS”, using for that
“Benny Blanco” fonts.
Create a new layer above others and using “Debris” brushes add the splatter effect.
Now we need to make beautiful gold ornaments. To make this ornaments we will use these two images:
To create the ornament, we need to cut the necessary parts and put them on the job. Like that:
PS. Also, I used the “Create Clipping Mask” of grey-yellow “Gradient Map” for the ornament, to making his a bit darker, as we did earlier with vintage mask and face. Under our ornament write a little letter “K” (size: 40px; color: 37300f)
6.Step Well it’s time for lightness! Create a new layer, above all others and select the “Screen” mode for it. Select the “01de6f” color and using “Soft Round 300- 100 pixels” make cool lightness like that:
Create new layer and using “Debris” brushes make similar splatter-effect: (color: “d1ff9f”)
Now you need to make the main stream of light, create a new layer above others. Choose a soft brush to 450px; select the color – cfffd2. And draw a spot in the upper part like that:
Now select the “Horizontal Type Tool” and make the text “I AM WATCHING YOU”. Type we used is “Blair Caps”.
7.Step Our work is almost ready! Now are the interesting steps. Click on the menu layer and select “Flatten Image”. Next click on the Layer –> Duplicate Layer; Select –> All and Edit –> Copy. Now we have a layer of finished work! To get back all the layers click Ctrl + Alt + Z until all becomes the way you want. Well, click on the Edit –> Paste above all others layers. Click on the Filter –> Blur –> Gaussian Blur – 3.5pixels. And choose the “Overlay” mode with 45% of layer opacity.
With this step our colors have become much more lively. Repeat the same
step of copying of the main layer. Our image is not in the best quality, because of poor material we used, so use a filter – “Topaz Clean” to slightly improve the quality and detail. Like that:
I also erase some parts on the background and on the woman. You should get a similar result:
At this stage – our work is finished! I added some contrast and levels, the final result you can see below:
Final Result: Beautiful Mystery Grunge Effect
