In this Photoshop tutorial, Gavin Hoey demonstrates how to achieve a grungy effect on an image.

Starting with duplicating the background layer and expanding the canvas, Gavin adds a clouds filter and adjusts blending modes to enhance the image's texture and depth. Using techniques like applying fibers filters and Gaussian blur, he further intensifies the grungy appearance, complemented by strategic strokes and brushwork to emphasize contrast and detail.

Gavin's tutorial offers practical insights into manipulating filters, blending modes, and brush tools to create a distressed, gritty aesthetic suitable for artistic compositions or stylized photo enhancements.
