Looking for Photoshop filter

[William Campbell]

See sample image:

See the pattern on the vampire's forehead? Does anyone have an idea what Photoshop filter was used to get that effect?

Thanks.

Looks like we found a likely candidate, thanks to Larry Hales at Lasko Printing...

Photoshop Plug-in : Craquelure 3D

Unless anyone has any better idea.

Looks like an image of some raggedy cheese-cloth to me. Set it to screen, apply a drop shadow and play with the opacity.

The craquelure filter produces something too rectilinear. But you could then use the Liquefy filter to distort the effect.

Great idea. Thanks! -Will

There's no doubt that your sample image was created using a simple texture with the layer mode set to overlay/soft light/multiply (NOT a photoshop filter)...

I made this photomanipulation http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs8/i/2005/319/1/2/Decompose_by_Haugaard.jpg from a simple eye stock and this texture http://th03.deviantart.net/images3/PRE/i/2004/159/2/e/abstract_experimental___004.jpg...

You can find several great tutorials online showing different tecniques.
This is the first tutorial I used when I started doing manipulations... It's very simple and easy to learn.
