Photoshop :: How To Create Loss Varnish Text Effect
Oct 9, 2012
I would like to create a gloss varnish effect like the below image. To apply to a logo or text to make it look like it has a spot varnish gloss coat. Looking at the image, it looks like it would be quite simple and not too technical but I can't seem to replicate the effect.
I have attached a logo I want to create. The text is running through this silhouette I have made and when it runs through the silhouette I want to change the text from black to white in only the places it is on top of the silhouette so it can be read.
I want to create the text "RoMa" like a fireworks (see below image - text should replace the stars and should look like firework). Please tell me how to do it. Would be great if you could post a tutorial or a link to it or would be even better if you could send me an action for it.
I am using Corel for driving a fiber laser through a dedicated Net connection not available to the rest of the network and it and my computer are right next to the switch.
My problem is that when I send a job from the PC to the laser it works fine. If I make a small change on the graphics, I save it and send a new job to the laser. Quite often, some part of my grapics is left off the plot even though I didn't touch that graphic or mod it. So I send the job over again and now somewhere else is missing some of the graphic word...usually a word or a letter or number. I usually turn off the computer or get out of Corel and come back in and it is fixed. That doesn't sound like a network dropped or corrupted graphic. I have tried turning off the laser with Corel still up and it doesn't fix the problem when I bring the laser on line again.
How to create a cool rainbow nebula text effect that you can play with. This is a fairly easy effect to achieve.
The result will look something like this:
1. Create a New project and set your dimensions. In this case, I am going to use 500 x 200. This part is up to you.
2. I think this effect goes best with a dark color(black) so use the fill tool to turn your background black(or your color pick if it is different).
3. Next, add your text using the text tool. I believe the font Century Gothic goes well with this. However, I am going to use my logo with this. Make sure whatever you do, if you use your logo or not, that your subject is white.
4. Right-click on the text/logo layer in the layer panel and select Alpha to Selection. Then create a New Layer and go the Filters→Render→Clouds→Plasma and click OK. Put this layer on the below the text one if it is not already.
5. Now Gaussian Blur the text layer by 5 pixels and set the Layer Mode to Overlay.
6. (This step is optional. I am going to do it though because it gives a good result in my opinion.) Duplicate the Plasma Layer and Gaussian Blur it by 5 pixels. Then you can play around with the opacity with the Layer Mode on Screen, I set mine to 50%. Then duplicate the text layer and lower the opacity which I did to 50%. This gives the text more shine.
How to create the effect of an object (in this case a crown) hanging on the edge of a letter (on the end of a word). I am designing a logo for our kids ministry at church. It is called "Kids of the King" and I have an eps of a crown and I want to hang the crown off the K in the word King. I am trying to make it where the back half of the crown is hidden behind the K so it gives the effect of it hanging off the edge of the letter.
I am looking to create text words that have a silver/bright mirror effect. The effect might look like silver liquid (water) effect. Or do you know what software it could be designed on.
After working several hours on a drawing with many attribute blocks, all the text in all the attributes disappeared. Block outline remains as defined but text is gone. Have been using this version (Autocad 2012) about five months and this is the first episode. how can I get the blocks to appear as originally drawn?
I have made a film and seperated it into frames. I was wondering whether there was a automated process in photoshop to help me create a similar effect to the image above.
Is it possible to create a Hi Res styled effect with Photoshop alone, or is it just down to the original images limitations?The high gloss and full depth luster look amazing, is that just down to a good image then tweaked?
I have a machine and I want to make it look like it's sitting on a shiny smooth surface, and I want it to reflect on the surface.
I have played around with the liquify and I am apparently very bad at it because it just distorts it too much. I want it to be a fairly clean replica, like a mirror.
I have photographs of mine that I would like to use as sketches in my textbooks. Do you know how I can create a sketch/drawing effect of photographs with photoshop?
I'm after creating a series of spot/dots that gradually get smaller the further away from the center in a dissolving effect. Ideally stemming from a radial pattern if this makes sense?
I am not sure if this is the right place to ask this but I am curious on how to achieve the effect shown in the movie Sweeny Todd. I am talking about the grey and dark effect. I want to do this for some of my photos.
I have a ton of icons 100x100 and I made a droplet to import them into a document as separate layers and make them 125X125. I now need to make all of the images look like they are falling out of a hole, like confetti squares. is there a way I can make each image/layer look like it is falling, randomly ( I don't want each image to have the same perspective.) I'd figure it would have something to do with transform>skew or perspective.
I need some direction. I know what I want to do but can't find the right tools in the photoshop toolbox to accomplish the task. I want to create a top down view of a single green LED. I want it to have the illusion of a rounded dome and some sort of highlight like the room light was bouncing from a point in the rounded surface. I've played around with the ellipse tool to create the green circle and several attempts using the blend modes, bevel emboss and inner glow. Nothing seems to come close to what I want.
I want to create a hole on a golf course and need to be able to add some gentle rolling effects to the fairway layer so it doesn't look flat. Can PS6 do this? I do not currently have CS6 extended but could get it if needed. I was thinking maybe some kind of wire frame and then it could generate some hightlights and shadows based on that frame?
I know nothing about 3d but from what I do know that is what came to mind. Right now I'm doing it with the burn and dodge tools and other similar methods but it's time consuming.
