Displacements / glass distortion for Photoshop (PSP as well) tutorial

Open a new document, apply a space shape as a fill or shape layer, flatten, save the document as a PSD file and then use the PSD file in displace filter / glass filter etc

 

1) New document - set to grayscale color mode

2) Go to the shape tool

3) Set the shape option along the top option bar to 'fill pixels'

4) Set the color for the shape - say black but it can be any color

5) Select a space / alien shape

6) Apply space / alien shape design

7) Repeat with the same shape or different shapes and different colors

 

One quick and easy way to create a seamless displacement map or texture file is to use the filter menu and custom commands and offset and set the sizes to half of the document size

 

8) Save file as PSD

9) Use the file with the displace filter etc as required
