Getting back into Photoshop with the results of the latest experiments in the lab! The question: How can we create noisy, grain-shaded Gradient Map Adjustments in Photoshop? The answer: A little bit of Adjustment Layer alchemy...

(plus a ton of other free stuff on the new-and-improved Texturelabs site!)

***If you're not in Photoshop and need the Reticulation Noise pattern, I included a seamless tile of it on the page linked above

    Brady I hope you know that your tutorials are really the gold standard on Youtube in terms of presentation. Professional audio and video, no filler, and an extremely tight script. Always a joy to watch, and I don't think that stuff is just polish on top - a good presentation makes learning easier. Keep up the good work!
  • I’ve never seen someone explain blending modes as a curve across a spectrum! I’m sure it’s a simplification, but it’s very intuitive and digestible.
  • The logic behind everything shows the man's insane knowledge over his craft. Mind blowing!

    These tutorials are so well made, and I love the speed and amount of detail. No need to do it all 1:1 along with the user, just pause the video or rewatch. These are just visual treats and I love it!!!
  • @rafi_mota
    This is the magnum opus of tutorials. Every content creator should have an inspiration on his method of explaining.
  • @StepanKoppel
    Oh man. I almost forgot this wonderful feeling of an adventure and excitement someones tutorial can bring. It is like I am back to a beginning of my journey in CG and tutorials of Andrew Kramer
  • @JordanKiener
    Your ability to explain the "why" behind each choice and how each thing works is unparalleled. I wish you could make every tutorial on YouTube, regardless of the thing being taught. Bravo.

    Man, you are the coolest. You've got the most unique ideas for working with photoshop ever. Every time you upload a video I know it's gonna be something I've never seen or thought about before, despite using photoshop for over 15 years. This one is gonna come in so handy with integrating good looking noise into my art.

    Рад что вы снова нашли время для нас! Это отличные и простые с точки зрения усвоения уроки. Спасибо за труд! 👍👍
  • @leifn
    Another great one. Huge respect for the quality, clarity and actually new stuff you teach us. I mean even after 17 years of Photoshop i know every single one of these videos will teach me something new. Thank you!
  • @kasziber
    Some people have Tutor skills as a gift. Love that pragmatic use of animations. They really have a purpose and arent just ornaments
  • @2xKH
    I don't think I've ever watched a tutorial so well explained and easy to follow! And it wasn't just the mechanics of what to do, but what is going on and how they work. I appreciate the hard work that went into it. Walked in to this video curious, and left a fan of Texturelabs!!
  • @amulpatel
    What a great time to be alive! I wake up have my Costco coffee and watch a presentation on gradient noise and subtleties of blending layers! Decades ago I would have to dig this stuff up in imported uk computer arts magazines… no more!
  • @porkyorcy1715
    this is probably one of the best made tutorials ive ever seen on youtube
  • @chrispysaid
    Welcome back Brady. You're an invaluable part of my design journey. Thank you for what you do, the new site looks amazing!
  • @DiegoPereyra
    Great to see you again. Amazing, as always, yours are top of the top of the line tutorials... especially the explanations you give of the logic behind all the steps that you take, it teaches us how to think in terms of the program, not just recipes. Really Cool. Thank you...
  • @tracy19860106
    There are definitely a lot people being as good at photoshop as you are, however, no one could ever compare to you on how to explain the logic and idea behind each steps in such an intuitive way! I could hardly imagine where else I can learn these priceless knowledges for free! You Are Amazing!
  • @garwert
    I am blown away by the care to earnestly explain and teach the viewer how to use this particular thingie, as opposed to simply describing it, as most do. Splendid little tutorial, thank you very much! o/

    It’s so good to see you back on YouTube, Brady! Your work is invaluable - I find myself yet again walking away from one of your videos with a ton of new knowledge and ideas!
