1) Start a new document, I chose 450x80.

2) Filter-Render-Clouds

3) Filter-Render-Difference Clouds

4) Invert the image and then hit Ctrl L. I change the middle number to .2, make it somewhere around there.

5) Filter-Blur-Radial Blur
Amount of 40 Zoom and Best Quality


6) Change the hue/saturation to some kind of orange color, make it dark so there is room to change the color later without it getting too bright.

7) Duplicate the layer and then do Filter-Sketch-Water Paper with default settings.

8) Set the blending mode to color dodge and then merge the layer down.

9) duplicate the layer again and do Filter-Sketch-Chrome with default settings.

10) change the hue/saturation to another shade of orange, or if you want a more dual colored approach pick another color that you like.

11) Set the blending mode to Linear Burn and your done!

As you can see there is alot to do with this tutorial by experimentation. Even just changing the blending mode of the linear burn layer to something else you can achieve alot of different unique looks, so enjoy!
