NOTE
: I've gone through the steps a couple
of times myself and found no problems with
achieving this effect by following the steps. I've gotten a reply from a friend
who had trouble achieving this effect though. If
that happens to you, do email me , or better
yet, to save you
all that trouble, why don't you visit www.designsbymark.com
or www.andyart.com
where you'll most likely find almost similar but
better documented tips. I assume some understanding about
stuff like layers and channels and the available
filters. Some filters may not be available in
certain versions of PhotoShop. TIP: To
familiarise yourself layers,channels and paths,
check out the Adobe PDF tutorials that came with
PhotoShop or the websites I listed above.
Have fun with PhotoShop mates! |
