Thank you very much. I am still a novice at Photoshop and tutorials like this are very helpful.
Thanks for tutorial. I like to work with textures.
Very cool design. One of the better leather technique I have found.
fantastic tutorial
i like it.. really
thanks
i dont really like it the texture looks more like painted stucco then leather plus it looks like you read the rock texture tutorial and just changed the filter to rust flakes.
Dont stop trying but please dont tell me that it leather.
thank you for you time
it’s not a leather, it’s a biscuit actually. i suddenly felt hungry looking at that lol
Oh goodie, thought I was the only one slightly dissapointed with this texture. Not the realistic leather look I wanted.
Muy logrado! muy util para retoque fotografico
Very nice. Could you please tell me how you did the text? I can’t find a tut on leather tooling. Thanks!

Unfortunately, a Textures folder does not exist in new versions of Photoshop.

Fantastic! So easy and really fun to alter for slight effects.
PLEASE do a followup on how to make the text like in your photo!
