That is pretty cool Andrew. Is it just a matter of layering textures with different modes and tweaking to get the textures to look like that on the image?

[Andrew Brinkhaus]

Basically, yeah. Just tweaking color, saturation, size, and opacity to make them match the photo, then matching the angle using the perspective tools.

well done andrew. I really dig the textures on the walls. At first I wasn't sure I liked it, but the more and more I look, it really adds depth and flavor.

I just hope I never have to visit that place. Ick.

I really like the grunge look.

My monitor isn't perfectly calibrated but I'd like to be able to see some detail on his sleeve.

Looks awesome Andrew. What grunge background is that on that site? Paint peel?

Was wondering that myself.
