Can't understand..
I am really new to photoshop, so excuse me for being so "new to photoshop". Anyway, in Chapter 10: Metal, Wood and stone/ Rust, grime and decay theres something I don't quite get. The .psd file located on the cdrom seems like it is nearly done, and skipped the first two steps, and then I won't know how to make my own. besides.. It starts with telling me to blur the artwork after making it into a new channel, but how do I do this? Great book though there are elements I can't understand, still it says I need some photoshop knowledge, so I'm not blaiming anyone. Thanks for answers! _________________ Bo. |

Re: Can't understand..
You really need to start a couple of pages back! If you begin with the Metal with Lighting Effects tutorial, on page 242, it details how to create new channels from existing artwork, and explains some of the theory of using channels for Lighting Effects. The artwork is then blurred with the Gaussian Blur filter. Hope this helps! Steve |
