How To Create Custom Camouflage Patterns in Photoshop
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 авг 2024
- In this Adobe Photoshop tutorial I'll show you some clever techniques for creating military style camo patterns, using nothing but Photoshop filters. The result is completely randomised, which is perfect for producing abstract shapes and disruptive patterns.
I'll also present a range of optional steps you can take to customise the appearance of your camouflage design, then prepare to have your mind blown when you see how Photoshop can completely automate the creation of your pattern across a vast area with no repetition whatsoever.

Spoon Graphics won’t let me layer each one together plz help
Can the resources from your free design bundle be use for commercial work?
And is there a way to color the different layers of the camo pattern with a color overlay instead of using hue and saturation? I want to use specific colors.
how can i get the pattern of the minute 12. can you share it to me or sell it?
simply amazing. I am a designer for men's streetwear and workwear, and this changed my life!
Inspiringly procedural and non-destructive! Today I learned that you can create a Smart Object from an empty layer and THEN render clouds in to it. Your tutorials often seem like simple follow-alongs for basic jobs but always turn out to be packed with rich, powerful techniques. Thank you!
If you are having trouble with the threshold step, do this to make it work exactly like the tutorial:
Layer > New adjustment Layer > Threshold > Click "Use Previous Layer to Create Clipping Mask"
You are welcome.
Thank you for this. I got the threshold to come up and was able to add it but the slider doesn't change anything at all. Do you know what could have gone wrong there by chance?
I cant select threshold on this step either
You are a fucking saint.
I'm still using CS6 and had to do TONS of workarounds since adding adjustments to the smart filters sublayer hadn't been implemented into this build at the time. STILL, I managed to follow along (albeit the long way) and got incredible results I can use right away for my business! THANK YOU!!!

This is an absolutely OUTSTANDING tutorial. Thank you so much.
THANK YOU I NEEDED THIS VIDEO BADLY !! You just helped me out 1000%. Learned how to do this so fast. You just earned a subscriber ✅
Master of graphics.
i can't see anything there's no camouflage
Love the stained glass effect
Hello from early 2021! Your tutorial is still great and useful! Thousand thanks!
Great tutorial. Thank you for your time and effort to make it and share it with the world.
Greetings from Croatia.
Simple and awesome!!!
wow, never would have thought to do it like this, very creative, gj dude!
Thanks you for sharing this advance technique.
Thank very much, this is great tuto. I did my own camouflage and I love it
HOLLY COW! Subbed! ♥ Great video Spoon guys! Straight to point and no wasting time! :)
I so needed this right now! You the master..thanks Chris!
still extremely helpful 3 years later. thank you.
Thanks, I needed this tutorial.
Thank you for the detailed tutorial!
Amazing as always, keep it up 👌, please make a tutorial on realistic mockups and shadows cheers
I couldnt get the threshold to apply to my smart object by going Image>Adjustment>Thresholf, instead, select the smart object and use the threshold setting in the lower right corner in the layer window - next to the smart clipping mask icon and the new layer folder icon.
this is really clever, would there be anyway to make the pattern seamless?
Yeah, he alludes to how to do that at the end at 6:17 but doesn't show us how...I would love to know how to make it seamless from here also.
Thank you for this super helpful tutorial! :)
my favorite channel to learn photoshop , awesome tutorial .
Any tutorials for splinter and Dutch fractal style patterns ?
Thank you for this. So generous to share. Is there anyway to create one of these layers with an image instead of a color? I am trying to make one of the Cloud layers into tree bark
thank you so much, this is a great tutorial!
Hey can you also make tbr tutorial how to create mockup with the camouflage pattern please?
This awesome and concise video just earned you a new subscriber! Thanks Chris!
Insane tutorial....
amazing tutorial you are fast and extremely precise. it just sucks that you can't use any cool filter gallery effects in CMYK :// I tried converting to RGB after and it erased a lot of the smart filters. wish there was a way to get these effects for print. Thanks again !
Awesome like always!
Excellent
Very creative. Thank you
i'm using a document size of 3000x3000 (even tried 4000x4000) but the clouds filter isn't working. It just gives the layer a white color fill.
Check your foreground and background color, they need to be white and black.
@@DJRoksor this fix didnt work for me need more help
@@realhumanbeing5724 The same problem. I've changed Image > mode > from 8 bit to 16 bit and it's working for me!
Thank youuuuuu
thank you so much for this tutorial
Solid tutorial!
Showww.. you are the best, man!!!
Awesome, thank you.
Very cool
SO DOPE.
Really cool!
Amazing!
I may have missed this step, but I wasn't able to view all layers simultaneously (without repeating the negative white space).
For anyone else stuck here, I Couldn't find the step i missed but I solved this by using multiply and color burn blending modes. If there's a better way let me know.
great tutorial!!
nice......tutorial......thanks
Does anyone know why Photoshop CS6 can not use the Image>Adjustments options? I can't for the life of me get Threshold to work with the Smart Object/Filters.
Hi Mate I ran into the same issue, I found that if you rasterize the layer that will work for it, however you cant change your settings to the clouds or any other effects afterwards.
@@mmfisher63 no way to fix that? The rest of the tutorial is useless if you cant edit and modify. Rather its time consuming and infuriating.
@@ryanburleigh8182 Yeah I totally agree, however I needed one made for my project and it worked out fine, just needed a lot of patience lol
I need to rasterize the clouds layer before being able to apply treshold. Any tips?
idk if you ended up getting it in the end. But what i found worked was instead of going 'image>adjustments>threshold' ..you can use the threshold adjustment layer and link it to your work layer. I used that for threshold and hue/saturation then just put them in a group. I managed to keep up with all his steps after.
@@TheNiueanOne savior
i cant access the threshold
@RYNATY I'm using photoshop cs3, a rather old version, and I can't choose threshold either.
Man you are 👍 awesome
Thank you for another great tutorial !!!
Everything is working great so far and I learned a lot using the steps you are showing. I have a camo pattern with relatively big shapes and I can't figure out how to make the borders of the shapes less pixelated/more smooth. Any tips or ideas?
Try experimenting with your gaussian blur settings.
QUESTION: how did you get to ONLY put the stained glass pattern on one of the layers? seems obvious, but I followed all directions and for some reason even my "black/brown" areas have that stained glass look, the whole image instead of only one color. i only want one color to have that texture.. Help ----------- moments later: the only way i made it happn was to click on the bottom layer and first "convert to smart object" and then it was abl to ONLY put my texture on only one color of the camo. IS this the only fix?
hi i was following your tutorial step by step . but got stuck at the threshold tool. (in your video at1:38 min) . in my window it doesnt allow me to click on the threshold tool .. why so ? can you pls suggest
i cant select threshold its not highlighted is there something i can do any help would be appreciated
Hi, when I go to my Image and adjustments > the Threshold cannot be selected, it's dull in gray please assist!
One question, I'm not able to do this well (I'm missing some options idk why), could you help me with a pattern I made but it looks terrible?
can you create a camo pattern for me ? i need multi terrain camo night with the terrain colours and shapes replaced with graffiti style colours shapes
Frecking genius!
When I go to copy the layer, the copy doesn’t transfer over the filters...what am I doing wrong?
Press ctrl J on the layer you want to copy/duplicate
why my pattern looks so different? i think is something with the rendered clouds the contours on my attempo using the same values look very different with blurred edges with no blur effect applied
Do u do any commission work?
Is there a way to make the pattern less regular? i.e.: Make macro shapes out of the clouds, cluster them, or make patches of shapes?
How can I create this effect with a couple of other patterns applied within the camo. example my logo in my avatar
Hey awesome tutorial but I am curious how to take a completed camo design from photoshop, and take it into substance. Any idea?
Edit: I also need the photoshop image of the camo design to be imported as a Material into substance painter
I followed this tutorial instruction exactly the same except the initial resolution of 3000px by 3000px. Mine was 16,000 by 6500. Other than that I did everything the same. However when you come to the step of "activating the middle layer" and choosing Filter Gallery, I'm not able to choose Filter Gallery because it is grayed out. What am I missing? Please help. Also I'm using Photoshop CC 2020.
I have the same problem, it's because you were working your design in CMYK mode. I've created another project and this time was RGB and the filter gallery it's activated. My problem is that I need to have it in CMYK as it must be ready to print.
U have to use 8-bit :)
Wooo! Yyyeeeaahhh!
I'm having an issue with the "blend if" option, all layers below the top 1 are still non visible?
Great video...I was following each step, but on my PS, it won't allow me to make the threshold adjustment of 2:15 (IMAGE>ADJUSTMENTS>THRESHOLD)...Using CS6 here...Any ideas? Thanks in advance
yeah ran into the same problem. Haven't the foggiest idea for a work around. I am also using CS6 Not sure why its not working.
Same problem here
Is there a way to recreate the exact digital pattern found in military camos? CADPAT, MARPAT, etc... I want to create a file for fabric printing but I only want to create a custom color palette.
Love your site! Do you have an Envato profile I can follow?
but how do you print it?
I have trouble with threshold adjustments, cant use it. same problem with cs6 or cc :(
I have no idea if you'll see this 8 months later or don't even needthis info anymore, or if you figured it out, but Ill try and help and way.
A user commented 7 months after your comment the following:
@Pedro Almeida
:
Layer > New adjustment Layer > Threshold > Click "Use Previous Layer to Create Clipping Mask"
I realized when the object is converted to smart object, my threshold is not active and cannot be used. Can u help me please
Hi sir chris, may i ask if i can use this camo pattern design technic for commercial use?
I checked again, the BLEND IF option does not seem to be functioning as before.
this is incredible information! Question Spoon Graphics when you go to export so you can use as a PNG in Illustrator whats is the best setting to export in? Thank you!
png-24 interlaced
quite helping. i have earned 290$ after watching this tutorial from a client. Thanks great job
How do you transfer the design to the clothes?
Muito massa!
how do i create the design at the 6:46 mark?!?
Is there any way to do this instead of using the Hue/Saturation adjustment and being able to individually select colors?
use a gradient map
Help please : on 1:30 min, filter / Blur / Gaussian Blur , my Photoshop pops a window : “Impossible to create Gaussian blur as the selected zone is empty”.
I have the last est version and new laptop, I’m on 16 bits and on RVB doc 3000X3000pixels and have created a new layer and converted it into Smart object. It looks the same than on your video except I can’t activate the filter because of this selected zone that is empty. Your layer is empty on yours so what I am missing here please?
I tried everything, select the layers with the selection tool, doesn’t work. I tried to put a colour background, then I can do the Gaussian filter but it looks flat, not at all like yours even when I move the arrow.
Please help!
How can I make it tileable?
You can't this is randomly generated. What he suggests is just making the canvas size bigger to what you need and Photoshop will just automatically fill it out.
yea thanks alot...
fg
My Filter gallery is not getting activated what would i do
Is there a way to color the different layers with a color overlay instead of using hue and saturation? I want to use specific colors.
Simplest way I can think of would be to make a new layer, then enable “all layers” on the paint bucket. Choose your color, and apply it to a pattern. You may need to use hue/saturation to give each layer a distinct color.
Unfortunately, if you change the pattern, you’ll need to delete the layer and remake it.
@@walterkennedy9474
I've found a way by adding a color gradient to each layer and using a solid color for it.
@@DJRoksor glad you found a solution! I think you could also use the hue/saturation filter to get some exact colors.
Just get the HSB values and put them into the filter.
can you do this on illustrator
If we could, how do we take out the seamless pattern from this, or how could we save it as a swatch to be used in illustrator seamlessly?
You literally have to take the Image and turn it into a Shape.
I wanna know who that one dislike is >:C
probably some geek who thinks 'gaussian' should be pronounced differently
Chris LD five geeks :/
I did, because the camo pattern is too simple and it doesn't explain how to do anything that would be useful for other designs, like urban camos, spray patterns, etc.
tell me how to make it in Microsoft Paint.
when i do it theres not as many clouds and idk why
2:14why i can't do the threshold :( 2:14
Can this work on cmyk?
Some of the fiters don't work in CMYK mode, so you would have to produce the artwork in RGB, then convert it afterward
@@spoongraphics Thannks, just wanted to know. I work most in printing stuff.
Am I missing something..? Went I made duplicate layer, it just stacks on top of each other..
First time following this tutorial everything worked fine, now am having this issue too.... PS updates to blame?
Please do the tech one 1:15
That pattern uses the same technique, but with larger scaling using the "Tiny Lens" texture in the Filter Gallery
@@spoongraphics thanks 😊😊
@@spoongraphics Yes, Thanks!
HaHa I can agree I'd like to see how you did that camo scheme as well, its very unique.
