Grunge Typography Tutorial

Posted 05 September 2009 | By Andy Law | Categories: Blog, Tutorials | No Comments

This simply grunge type tutorial show you how I made my “ALDB” icon posted on this blog. This tutorial uses both Adobe Illustrator (for 3D rendering) and Adobe Photoshop (layering effects and adding grunge) so if you dont own both of these programs then skip this tut.
