Hi there guys.
I am trying to achieve a liquified halftone pattern where you can see the dots merge in a very interesting way. I guess we have all seen this in the Coca Cola commercials it should look like this (red area signifies the liquid effect...)
Thanks !

The easiest way would be to gaussian blur the layer until the dots touch each other a bit, then add a levels adjustment and constrain it until the dots become sharp again. Requires quite a bit of experimentation to get the right levels.

Thanks Caffeinerush,
I'll try that. Not sure it achieves the liquid effect though...
