This tutorial introduces the method of making classical text. The general process: the first is the choice of words, with China's more distinctive characteristics of paper-cut character modelling. Then is the arts and textures part of the rendering, texture can be based on the characteristics of the dragon of the Dragon scale pattern. The last is a decent production, similar to other stereo words.
Final effect

1, create a new 1024 * 768 pixel document, select the Gradient tool, color settings such as Figure 1, pull out the radial gradient shown in Figure 2 as the background. |
3, create a new group, named "Surface", open the text material shown in Figure 4, dragged in. Lock the layer opacity and fill the text with orange, as shown in Figure 5. |
4, double-click the image Layer panel text thumbnails to bring up the layers style, set the bevel and relief, parameter settings such as Figure 6, the effect is shown in Figure 7. |
5, bring up the text selection, create a new layer fill orange yellow: #F8BA09, blending mode to "filter", remove the selection after the layer mask, with a black brush to wipe out the high light, the effect of the following figure. |
6, open the pattern shown in Figure 9, select menu: Edit > Define pattern. Create a new layer fill in the pattern defined just now, press CTRL + T to deform, a little smaller, then bring up the text selection, press CTRL + Shift + I to select, press DELETE delete, press CTRL + Shift + U go color, blending mode to brightness, opacity to: 80%, effect As shown in Figure 10. |
7, double-click the pattern layer thumbnail to bring up the layer style, parameter settings such as Figure 11, the effect is shown in Figure 12. |
8, the text selection, create a color balance adjustment layer, the middle of the tune, highlight adjustment, parameter settings such as Figure 13,14, the effect is shown in Figure 15. |
9, the background layer shadow hidden, create a new layer, press CTRL + ALT + Shift + E-stamped layer. The blending mode is changed to "overlay", then the background layer is displayed, and the effect is shown below. To this step the surface part is basically finished. |
10. Bring up the text selection and create a new group on the background layer. After the new layer is filled with black, the appropriate network to move a few pixels lower right, the effect of the following figure. |
11. Create a new layer and use a pen to check out the selection shown in Figure 18, plus the linear gradient shown in Figure 19. |
12, create a new layer, the same method to make the other parts of the three-dimensional surface, the process is shown in Figure 20-23. |
13, the current group copy a layer, blending mode to "multiply the bottom", the opacity to: 50%, the effect of the following figure. |
14, a new layer, and then strengthen the three-dimensional surface of the dark part, the effect of the following figure. |
15. Create a new layer on top of the layer and stamp the layer. Execution: Filters > Blur > Motion blur, Angle is 45 degrees, distance is 160, the layer blending mode is changed to "Color Filter", and the opacity is changed to: 60%, the effect is as follows figure. |
Finally, add some starlight, adjust the details and finish the final result. |
