› › HOW TOStep Five: Next, go under the Filter
menu, to Texture, and choose Grain.
(Note: If you don’t see Texture in the
Filter menu, you have two options.
The first is to go to Photoshop CC
[PC: Edit]>Preferences>Plug-Ins, turn
on Show All Filter Gallery Groups
and Names, and click OK. Now you’ll
see Texture in the Filter menu. The
second option is to go to Filter>Filter
Gallery, expand the Texture folder
on the right, and choose the Grain
filter.) First, go into the Grain Type
drop-down menu and choose
Speckle. Then, set the Intensity to 50
and the Contrast to 46. Feel free to
experiment with different settings,
depending on the image.Step Six: With this layer still active,
click on the Add a Layer Style icon
(fx) at bottom of the Layer’s panel,
and choose Color Overlay. Set the
Blend Mode to Color, and click on
the color swatch. Here, we’re using a
sepia color. If the effect seems strong,
you can lower the Opacity to tone it
down a bit. The result is an interest-
ing combination of filters and layer
styles. This is worth experimenting
with, but save that for later. For now,
click OK and let’s move on.Step Seven: Click the next layer in
the Layers panel labeled classical_2,
and click where its Eye icon used to
be to make it visible again. Go under
the Image menu, to Adjustments,
and choose Posterize. Set the Levels
to 4 and click OK.
