Finally I made another Tutorial... I made some Icons I thought were worth a Tutorial but I couldn't get my lazy ass up to actually write them ;D
But anyway... here is one:
from
to
Starting with your base.
Make a new layer and add a texture that fits - it has to cover the parts of your Icon that are not that important. So basically cover what you think can be covered ;D - erase the rest.
I added one by
inxsomniax and set it to HARD LIGHT
Then I dublicated the base and set it on top. But now erase the background (the white part is erased) and set it to SOFT LIGHT
So Amber looks brighter now :-D
Then I added another texture - this time by
colorfilter and erased the part covering Ambers face, hair and body.
Set it to LINEAR BURN and lower the opacity to 65%
I added another texture by
colorfilter - this time a light texture and set it to SCREEN
Then I added a lovely brush by arisubox (color: fdd0cf) and set it to COLOR DODGE
And at the end I simply wrote "Amber" (Font: Century Gothic) in the same color as the brush and also set it to COLOR DODGE
And that's it!
Love to see your results.
Ask if you didn't understand anything (I'm still german ^^)!
Comments are love 'cause I actually don't know if this will help anyone (or if any of my Tutorial does - although I already got some great replies with lovely Icons :-D) Don't forget: it feeds the muse ^-^
