Description Edit: Easier way to do this, since im to lazy to m ake a new tutorial. I have only done this in photoshop.

Click on the character layer while you hold ctrl, it will automatically select the shape, then go up to the layer with the texture and click on the mask icon.

------------

Ive gotten alot of questions on how i do this, and its about time i did a tutorial on how to do it xD

hmmmmm...
i donΒ΄t understand how you can get that texture as a layer onto the rest!
(errr...sorry...bad english...)
err... okay, again:

how can you take the texture and put it over the drawing?
i cannot get it as a layer!!!Β°~Β°

but your tutorials are reallyreally helpful!

Copy paste, or just drag it over into the drawing you want the texture to be in and it will automatically become a new layer.

I use Photoshop Elements 6.0 ;n; and how I have to add textures or a way a friend told me is to make a layer ontop of the color and and make the texture transparent enough so you can see it on the color..it messes up the color and yeah :/ I was wondering if you knew how to textures of that?

griffsnuff In reply to leroybrown96 [2012-02-24 16:39:57 +0000 UTC]

You need to use blendingmodes to be able to see the drawing under, I usually use overlay.

I don't understand how you created/got that texture layer. I tried looking for it, but I'm at a loss... help? QAQ

griffsnuff In reply to zoloisafreak [2012-02-20 07:45:04 +0000 UTC]

What program do you use? If you use photoshop you can just drag the picture over onto your drawing, or you can click ctrl+a (selecting whole picture) then ctrl+c (copying it) and go to the drawing and click ctrl+V (pasting it) it will paste itself on a new layer

zoloisafreak In reply to griffsnuff [2012-02-20 15:07:01 +0000 UTC]

I know how to apply, I don't how to make the actual texture you use to apply it to the picture.

Make the texture into gray, you can do this by clicking crtl+u and drag the middle option all the way to left if you have photoshop.

griffsnuff In reply to malunii [2011-12-17 08:33:42 +0000 UTC]
