Simple Camouflage


From the murky depths of the deepest forests to the frosty desolation of the Siberian wilderness, camouflage is invaluable for breaking up the human silhouette, allowing stealthy approaches towards your prey.  It is, however, also deceptively simple to make in Photoshop using only a couple of filters and a basic sense of style...

Step 1: Create a blank  document of any size with a single active layer (this can be filled with anything you desire). Using the colour swatches, select #D0C577 as the foreground colour, and #BAAD4A as the background colour. Then choose Edit > Fill from the main menu and fill the background layer with the new BG colour.

Step 2: Now create that camouflage by selecting Filter > Artistic > Sponge, and running it with the following settings:

Brush Size - 8
Definition - 25
Smoothness - 15


Repeat the filter a second time with exactly the same settings to bring out highlights. To smooth out the result, go to Filter > Noise > Median and enter a value of 3.

Step 3:  And that's it!  See, I said it was easy!  Of course, at this point you can brighten things up a little with the Image > Adjust > Brightness / Contrast tools, and/or add a little cloth texture with Filter > Texture > Texturizer, but I'll leave that up to you...

Of course, these colours wont work for every environment, so feel free to play around a little.  Take a look below to see a few quick colour variations.    Have fun experimenting!
