Fast liquid metal Photoshop effect


I just played around with some fun effects in Photoshop last night, and came up with this liquid metallic background effect, it took me not many steps to make, so I know you can to. As you can see below, you will see how to make a fast liquid metallic background effect using Adobe Photoshop.

First off we need to make a gradient going from white to black then back to white and drag it across the stage as I did below.

Now make a soft brush and click on the stage to make round soft dots in different large sizes as shown below. (remember to use white color, other colors will give other funny effects).
