© Artist of Corfe Castle: J. Walls ©



Filters:

FM Tools, Blend Emboss

Open the tubes, Duplicate with capital letter + D, to close the original, in the copy to eliminate the mark of the tuber and the background if it has. Minimize.




Let's go


1. Open a new transparent image of 500 of width x 600 of high.

5. Prepare a gradient, but this time you will do it personalized:
Style: Reflexes, Repetitions: 1 horizontal, Central Point: 50 and Vertical: 73, Connect central and focal points: check

Now you open where says: Edit
You try to copy this gradient that you can see in the image, as you observe that I have lowered almost the whole white color, how? moving the little rhombs of above of the bar, copy like you see it: where 1 says: you put in position 0 (zero) your white and like this color with other points: 2 in position 57 and 3 in position 100 (dark violet), once modified this you is going to appear a message saying that your first plane has changed, give to accept.

Fill your layer with this gradient. Blend Mode of the layer: Multiply, Lower the opacity: 53 %.
6. Duplicate the layer two times, you will have Back_2 and Back_3, to put both layers Blend Mode: Normal: 100 %, but for now close the layer: Back_3, we will use her, then.
7. In your layer Back_2: Effects, to apply Filter: Craquelure 3 D / Toilet Ripples: with these adjustments:
