new background idea

I wanted to create a distressed background for my posters to create a more youthful and intresting look than the simplistic posters ideas so far. I dont think simplistic is the right way to go with this as it wont attract the audience this is aimed at.

I knew the kind of look i wanted and was thinking how i was going to do it when i realised i had a guitar hanging on my wall that had being finished to look unfinished and aged.

I photographed the back of it and then played around with the levels, contrast ect to get the right colour.
