Textures

[matthewm14326104]

Spotted this on Behance, ive been playing about with textures like this from made or found images, but the way i see people

using these textures lead me to believe it was just defusion dither or stipple but both effects create massive files, any advice on how people have

approached this?

Just like you said - pixel filters. Nothing you would do in AI. This is Photoshop stuff.

Yep, it's looks just like some noise over layers and different kind of blending. The rest is just shading via gradinet I assume.

You can also try build in Illustrator Patterns. I know it's not the same, but.

Go to Swatches Library (Menu Window) and choose Patterns then basic grapchis - dots..ect.

Try to propare your image - vector image and add color you wish. Go to Appereance Panel (Shift+F6) and add additional fill - Pattern fill. Then try to set diffrent blending mode - Multiply, Overlay eg.

Not the same but looks very nice

This is for Photoshop. Paint on a layer set to dissolve blending mode with a soft brush at about 10% opacity and you will get the texture.

There are other ways such a fill a layer with one of the nice filters, and painting a mask with white on the areas you want noise.

I found an .svg filter called "Salt, Pepper and Sand" on DA a while back looks like what you posted. here a link where you can download it i hope: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/o9boat4e5rzzrv6/AACYpmslyoVXb9-evygxD7efa?dl=0
