Halftone custom photoshop shape
6) Go to “Filter” -> “Pixelate” -> “Color Halftone” and use these settings

You can Change the settings depending of the shape and the result you want to achieve
7) Hit “Ctrl-F” a few times until you are happy with what you see
You should now have something like this

Hit “Q” again to exit Quick mask mode and go to “Select” -> “Inverse”
9) Select the paths tab and delete the path that is there. Then click on the “Make work path from selection” button (see image below)

10) Make sure you have the Pen tool (P) and right click on your image and Select “Define Custom Shape”

Give your shape a name and you have a new Halftone Photoshop shape that you can use at any time and at any size. (Don’t forget to save the new shapes you create because the next time you will reset your shapes they will be lost)
Here is my final result.
