This is a pretty simple wallpaper to make, as all it involves is throwing a bunch of textures at it and playing a tiny bit with the coloring.

How I made this wallpaper from this. This is not the original source image, though, as I had to size it down. The original source image is high-res and five times as big.

shawn asked how I made these, sooo I figured I'd write up a quick guide. It's really not difficult, but it may require some fiddling and extreme zooming to get everything as close to perfect as you can. Rather than picking apart one I already made, I decided to just redo the one of my mesmer as I thought it was a little boring :D.

You need to have at least some understand of layers and various Photoshop tools, as well as a bunch of textures--if you don't have any textures, I zipped a bunch of my favorites for kamara ages ago. You can find textures all over LJ (texturize) as well as deviantArt (do a search for them).

I'll be making this:
