other outcomes (seems like I've already lost sotw so this doesn't really matter)



brushes used - Pro Smudge Brushes by ~Noise-Less on deviantART

Ok first start out with your render on a blank canvas


Duplicate the render and spread it around the canvas I made a few extra just in case


smudge one of the layers with the duplicated renders, use sample all layers and around 77% strength this brush Screenshot by Lightshot


Move the other smudged layer to the top and hide it. Get out this brush Screenshot by Lightshot and smudge another layer


unhide the other smudged layer and put it on overlay


smudge the render some


add some lighting (I'm not a fan of the burn tool so I use a black brush on a lower opacity


place a black/white gradient map on overlay with a lower opacity


create a new layer and apply the image then Filter>sharpen


And your finished
