Hey there! I’m a little stuck on Step 42. The file link doesn’t go to the image that is shown. Instead, it goes to the same crack texture that we used for the bricks. Can you help me on this? Thanks.

Is there any place where you can get the explosive shattered pieces for download?

Well I’m a student now, and for all the guru’s this tutorial may seem too detailed but I’ve learned something new and to me step by step is very important, and when it comes to applying the technique to other projects all it needs is imagination. I do it all the time.

So great work Wojciech keep it up.

The “File” link does not work.

Some people had issues with this tut for strangely petty reasons, however i was impressed that it had links to specific pieces of free royalty free stock, a fact that a lot of web tuts tend to ignore.

I’ve seen a few other photo-manipulation tuts that were more like guides, where as this author actually walks you through it in a fairly easy to understand “NOW YOU DO IT” series of steps with all the parts and pieces.

I didn’t need lucis arts because i didn’t use a gas mask with my design, i didn’t stress about the fact that the exploding bricks were different sizes than the wall, i had fun finding stock that matched. (lots of free brick walls out there)

I had been looking for inspiration for a design and i found it, and it kept me in my design job for at least another month, my bosses were psyched and i was able to put food on the table.

Can’t quite afford the tuts-plus membership fee just yet, but i understand that this site is a business. Maybe they could have us click on surveys or something instead of paying. Or maybe with a few more free tuts inspiring me to create, i will be able to afford it… either way thank you Wojciech Pijecki, and thank you psd tuts for helping the upstarts get started…
