How to make canvas effect

[Aviorrok]

Hi

How can I do canvas effect like this icons (the icon size is 180x180 pixels)


Thanks!

What canvas effect? The very fine structure in the yellow rectangle, the very fine structure in the gray areas, or something else?

When I think of a canvas effect, I think of something much more obvious, ie, like:

because people in bright light, or using a phone, or using a monitor that isn't top-notch are likely to see these areas as simply solid yellow or solid gray.

Looks more like paper than canvas.

I just used a layer style with a 'stucco' pattern overlay and a gradient overlay.

You could also try...

FILTER > TEXTURE > TEXTURIZER



Then play around with the settings.

Don't forget, guys, that if the OP creates the image at significantly higher resolution, saves it as a conventional JPG, GIF, BMT, or other similar image file, and then scales it down to 180x180px, some of the structure will be reduced because of averaging effects. To get a meaningful view of how the structure will appear at the final resolution of 180x180, he should create and tweak the image at that resolution.

Ok,

Here is the layer style using "canvas" pattern overlay at 180 x 180


Here is the texturizer filter using canvas at 180 x 180
