Jan van Leyden Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I'm going with a scanned image representing a map. I want to produce a frayed, frazzled effect for this image, leaving the center parts intact and giving the outer parts a look like - well - a frayed map. :-) I didn't find anything in the plug-in list, looking for "fray" and "frazzle". thanks for your help! ---Jan van Leyden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan van Leyden Posted October 17, 2017 Author Share Posted October 17, 2017 Thanks a lot welshblue! It will take some experiments to get it as I want it, but this is the way to go! Huldvoll winkend ---Jan van Leyden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJW Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 A pretty good way to make a ragged edge is to draw a filled rectangle with the Shapes Tool, then use Distort>Dents to jiggle the edge. For a more subtle effect, apply Dents several times with different settings. Not too much distortion each time. Do it on a separate layer from the paper. Once the shape is what you want, you can scale it to fit within the paper, and use the Magic Wand to select it. Then go to the paper layer, invert the selection, and Erase Selection. Or use BoltBait's Paste Alpha plugin. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
