Lifelike Gold diamond Font effect

1th Step:

Open Photoshop,ctrl+n Create a new blank document. The size I choose here is 600x380px, you can define the size according to your own needs.

2nd Step:

Let's start by creating a purple background. Alt-click the background layer to convert it to a normal layer. Double-click the background layer, open the Layer Style window, and select a gradient overlay. The gradient style is shown in the following illustration.

3rd Step:

Add the hue/saturation adjustment layer, and the parameters are set as shown below. Select the mask thumbnail. Then select the Gradient tool, the gradient style selects the radial gradient, the color is black to transparent, and the gradient is pulled from the inside out on the mask.

4th Step:

Create a new layer, select the gradient tool, the color is #e3b042 to transparent, the gradient style is a radial gradient, pull the gradient up from the bottom.

Set the opacity of this gradient layer to 70% and the padding to 55% (the parameters here can be set according to your preferences).

9th step:

Install Ctrl-click the font layer thumbnail to create a selection.

Perform a selection > Modify > Extension to extend the selection to 5px.

Create a new layer below the text layer, named "Phnom Penh," and fill it with #d4ad74. Then double-click the layer to add a layer style to it.

The font effect after adding a layer style is shown below. Ctrl-click the Phnom Penh layer to create a selection, and then add a brightness/contrast adjustment layer above the font layer and set the parameters as follows. Because of the role of the selection, the adjustment layer only works on the text area.

10th Step:

Select the adjustment layer, text layer and the "Phnom Penh" layer (you can press Ctrl Garchon), ctrl+alt+e New merged layer, named "Reflection." Ctrl+t the free transform, flips it vertically, and moves underneath the text.

Add a mask to the reflection layer and use the gradient tool to create the reflection. The opacity is then set to 80% (the value is freely adjustable).

11th Step:

Download and install the Ray brush, create a new layer, and use the light brush on the layer to draw the light of different shapes and sizes.

12th Step:

Next, create a new layer, use a white circle brush to draw on the layer, and occasionally change the brush size to produce a random spot effect. Set the layer opacity to 25%, and the layer blending mode to color dodge (for blending mode, refer to the "Blending mode with you know Photoshop").

13th Step:

Download the diamond material, randomly placed in the picture will be done. (Notice the projection of the diamond on the ground)
