ok so i thought i might try my hand a something a bit more challenging with perhaps some metal in it and i came across this texture

but im having a whole lot of trouble to get a good shape out those edges so i was thinking about a bevel effect... which i had with eye candy back with photoshop 5... uhm so anyways i was wondering if there was a way around using premade effects for this one or if there was a good plug-in with a bunch of useful effect that you guys could suggest (preferably a free one :roll:)

what did i do? that was the first time ive ever tried to make brushed metal, what i did was made a new channel, rendered noise, motion blurred and then went to a normal layer, filled it with 7f7f7f (gray) and did lighting effects, messed with the contrast, added noise, sharpened, and then motion blurred again

no but... he IS being sarcastic right?

...RIGHT?

i was just too tired to look at the old one so i just started over... i think the cracks look better in this one but I was'nt able to put a big ass tear (I know it wont tile but hey... look at the original) like in the first one... any suggestions?

A bit more grain and reducing the current structure would work better IMO.
