Marble texture
5. Duplicate the layer (Ctrl-J) or (”Layer” -> “Duplicate Layer”)
6. The duplicate layer should now be selected.
Go to “Image” -> “Adjustments” -> “Levels” and use this settings.
7. Set the blending mode of the duplicate layer to “Overlay”
8. Create a new layer (Ctrl-Shift-N) or (Layer->New Layer) and fill it with the color you want your marble to be. I used #E1DFF2.
Set the blending mode of this layer to “Linear Burn”
9. Finally select the Bottom layer and change its opacity to 10%.
This will give your marble a slight color variation making it look more realistic.
10. Merge all the layers and you are all done.
Here is my final result

Wow, looks very similar to the tutorial I wrote about a month ago and submitted to G.T. For some reason he claimed it was too similar to others on the net, and rejected it, but here it is, resurrected on your site. Neat trick mate.
Here’s the original tutorial… http://www.kiwireviews.co.nz/tutorial.php?n=11

Hi, this tutorial uses the same principles as most marble tutorials, however it was not ripped. If you compare it with other marble tutorials you will see that there are distinct differences. For example compared with the tutorial from Kiwireviews:
1.I don’t invert after Difference clouds.
2.I use completely different Levels settings.
3. I duplicate the layer to achieve the color variation of the marble while etc.
Yes clouds and levels are the basis of both tutorials but even the use of those vary from tutorial to tutorial.
