In this tutorial, we are going to make a cool looking sprite signature with an awesome blast effect
1. Start off by making a new document. goto your gradient tool and use a radial gradient. I used a dark and light aqua gradient.
Make a splash with an incredible underwater scene, with tips on underwater lighting in Photoshop from Fabio Sasso.
There’s another world under the waves, and in this tutorial, Fabio Sasso shows you how to recreate it convincingly. You’ll learn all sorts of ways to combine found images seamlessly, learning compositing and saturation techniques to integrate them into a backdrop that’s been created using Photoshop filters and gradients.
Learn how to create an abstract smoke effect from scratch.
Open up a new document, any size is fine (I used 500×500px). Fill the Background White.
Go Filter -> Liquify and mess with it till you get a nice smoke effect going. (Note: I use the default Liquify settings, brush size 100.)
Fantasy art is a genre all of its own: just like any other art form, it has its own rules and conventions. Slick, polished finishes are central to fantasy art. To achieve these slick finishes, you’ll need razor-sharp compositing skills and a neat way with colour – you’re aiming for something that looks as though it could be real, but that nonetheless has a faraway, dreamlike feel.
In this tutorial we will be learning how to take a few different stock images and put them together with some text to make a movie poster/DVD cover design. If you followed the first part of this tutorial on destroying a plane then you can use that image as well.
