This isn’t your clean-cut, pretend-vintage halftone filter wrapped in a fake grain layer. The Half-Tone Wash Distortion Effect is a distortion engine in disguise, built for designers who don’t care about clean lines and wouldn’t trust a pristine pixel if they saw one.
It starts with surgical halftone precision, then drags it through ink bleed, scanner drift, and analog chaos until your image looks like it was wheatpasted to a brick wall in 1983 and left to rot. Expect bruised texture, warped detail, and that beautiful kind of visual damage you only get from copy machines that smell like rebellion. Fully editable and high-res, this PSD includes Smart Object support for fast drop-ins and destructive results.
The Half-Tone Wash Distortion Effect is perfect for underground posters, protest art, experimental typography, album sleeves, or any design that needs to look like it’s been screaming for decades. Don’t clean it up, break it more.
