Design a Fragmented Text Effect with Scrap Texture in Photoshop

[nitefox]

In this tutorial, I will show you the step I took to create this really cool, abstract-style fragmented text effect by applying scrap texture in Photoshop. Sometimes, those scrappy wastes do have their uses :)

Along the way, we will be using some basic selection techniques, image adjustments, layer blending options, and dynamic lighting rendering. It’s a very simple tutorial however the result is good. Have a try!

Here is the preview of my final result for this tutorial:

Its quite a nice effect, but should the text be at least readable?

yeah, i think I've overdone the text effect a bit. However I thought the effect is rather nice so I kept it in the end.

Could erase the centre portion and/or reduce the opacity of the texture layer a bit to make the text more visible
