hello and welcome to another tutorial about how i cheat to make textures

step 1:
use the gradient tool to make this:




then i used white noise, and a vertical motion blur, and a soft light blend mode to make it look like this?:



then i messed with contrast and brightness to make it look less intense, and more like sheet metal. horray! this is p much a shawn texture! go decorate your shitty techbase



then, like i covered in my last tutorial, i used white/black layers with soft light to create the edges of a support texture thing, at 16, 32 and 24 wide (cause they are cool numbers imo)



this is fine but try painting on some knobbly bits for Added Interest



make color variations! (none of these are doom paletted cause i'm tired rn and can't be bothered)



try em out under the support layers and see if its also cool



remember to split them into seperate textures and not leave all 3 support in one thing because people will just use em like that and that's bad. like this:



anyway have fun and stuff. drink responsibly
