Diablo III styled wallpaper
In this detailed tutorial we will learn how to make a Diablo III styled wallpaper.
For the beginning create a new file (File>New) of 1280×1024 px and 72 dpi. Paint the first layer with black color, applying the Paint Bucket Tool (G).
Now, let’s start making a very gloomy texture. Download out of Internet a set of ready to use brushes D_Grungeset1.

On a new layer we’ll try to represent the blue color – #04020F. Opacity:20%.
Enlarge the brush’s size by pressing Ctrl +] and try to represent one more layer of the same color.
On the next layer the brush needs to be enlarged even more, changing the Opacity on 40% and trying to get the same result as below:
Select the white color, Opacity of 10% and represent an element remembering the clouds.
Set the next parameters on the layers’ palette.
Select the black color and the same opacity’s value to create a dark haziness on the top part of the picture.
Create a new file of 500x500px and 72 dpi, painting it in black color.
Select the Gradient Tool (G) on a new layer for giving it the white gradient. Select on the top gradient’s menu the option Foreground to transparent, having a picture, like the next one.
Next select the main menu Filter>Distort>Wave…, setting the options from below
