Grunge pattern......how?

In Tenebris · 07-11-2006

Hi to all guys!
Do you know how I can do that grunge pattern I love, the one that resembles a net composed of hexagons?
I found a tut, but I would obtain very small and closely-woven net, and It's impossible in that way.

You know other awsome techno or grunge patterns?

Thanks ^^

can't you make a grunge pattern out of a circuit of a pc?
i don't know how it looks but its maybe worth trying..

well hope you find the answer.....

Hmmm... do you mean like those holes in beehives that all the honey is stored in?

Here's a couple of links to tutorials that show you how to make hexagonal patterns:

and

Once you've made your hexagon pattern, you could always make a brush out of it, too.

Exactly NEOD!
And Tamlin, thank you, the second is very original, and the first really goes! I like My Janee site, I've already visited it, it has a good gel text tutorial, one of the best in my opinion

I hadn't seen the My Janee site before, but there looks to be some good - and very detailed - tutorials on there. I'll have to check it out further.

Yeah, visit it: Tuts are detailed and most of them are very useful to create realistic effects, and nice ideas...like the bulletin board. I had some problems with the cork, but is full of suggestions.

Here's a tutorial for it. I haven't tried the tutorial myself but it looks good.

Yessss! very good NEOD, is the same way I did it but... mine doesn't came out so smooth -.- I'll try again, thank you ^^

No problem. I decided to try it myself and it works quite well. However I found that the polygon tool can be a little difficult to line up perfectly.

i tried it to and had the same problems, only ad you enlarge(zoom in) the placing was a bit easyer

thanx in tenebris for the question it helped me out to

The polygons give me the problem too. It requires a bit of patience
