I was just playing around in Photoshop and made this cool image of islands using just a few filters. I posted the image on twitter and some of you wanted to see a tutorial, so here you go.

Note: I will not be posting screenshots because I feel they aren’t needed for this particular tutorial. If you have any questions just @saltytech me on twitter.

  1. Make a new document, I made it the resolution of my desktop: 1680 x 1050.
  2. Set your colors to the default, black (foreground) and white (background).
  3. Go to Filter > Render > Clouds
  4. Then go to Filter > Sketch > Plaster, adjust the size of the “islands” by playing around with the Image Balance slider.
  5. Optional: Go to Filter > Artistic > Plastic Wrap.
  6. Finally Go to Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation and play around with the colors to achieve a nice blue or any other color you like!

Note: The “islands” will look different every time you do this.

There you go it’s that easy, Hope you guys liked the tutorial, I might make more in the future. You have to be registered to leave a comment now, I changed it because of all the spam. If you don’t want to register and have a question just @saltytech me on twitter.
