Step 6.
This is the 2nd part of this Photoshop tutorial. Next, make a selection using the path and fill a new layer, with white, inside a new layer set called "chunks". Now we'll use this shape and part of it to add on to other areas of the text. Use the polygonal lasso tool to select a chunk and then copy (layer via copy) it into it's own layer.
a)   b)
 
Step 7.
Drag it over to another part of the text and rotate (edit > transform > rotate) it counter clockwise a little, to level it out. Copy another chunk into it's own and do the same, but placing it over another part of the text.
a)   b)
Step 8.
Duplicate the original and use the trasform tool to scale it and rotate it against the slope of the "N". You should now have 4 pieces inside the layer set called "chunks". Merge the layer set into a single layer, by selecting it in the layers panel and then going to Layer > Merge Layer Set. Make a selection, using the newly merged layer, and then fill a new layer above it with grey (DADADA), as shown in image b).
a)   b)
Step 9.
Feather (select > feather) the selection by 3, contract (select > modify > contract) it by 4 and delete the area that's selected. Merge the feathered layer, the grey layer and the text into a single layer, so that you now only have the background and 1 other layer. Next go to [Part 3]of this Photoshop tutorial.
