New tut, yay!  
This time we'll be going from
this to this, this or



EDIT: Sorry, the missing brush is now there! lol

1. Start with your base and sharpen it as necessary.

2. Duplicate the base twice. Set the first duplicate to screen, 50% and the second to soft light, 50%

3. Create a new layer, fill it with #0B1F39 and set to exclusion, 100%

4. Add this texture (all used here are by [info]colorfilter) on overlay, 100%


5. Then add this texture on screen, 100%


6. Duplicate your base and bring it to the top. Set it to soft light, 70%

7. Add this texture (modified from the original) and set to screen, 100%


8. Go to Layers > New Adjustment Layer > Hue/Saturation/Lightness. From the "Edit" dropdown menu, select "greens". Increase the saturation anywhere from +20 to +30.

Stop here for the first icon

9. Add this brush (I forgot who it's by. If you know, please tell me lol). Set its layer to burn, 68%


Stop here for 2nd icon

10. Add this brush (Also by someone unknown to me...) in black, at 64%


And you're done :)

Awesome...thanks. :)

And by the way...I have that brush back with the 'beautiful' brush it. The folder says acidicicons, but I know I have credit for it there in my userinfo, some one of the people in my info made it...just not sure which one. Hope that helped a bit.

Help! I wanted to try out this really cool tutorial, but I'm stuck! I'm using Adobe Photoshop CS2 and I can't get past step 4 because I don't know how to add the texture! Could you help me out, please?
Andrea[info]vesleskjor on April 17th, 2008 03:18 pm (UTC)
Just copy it, then paste it as a new layer over everything else.
