Photoshop makes a cool concentric jigsaw effect

This tutorial mainly uses Photoshop to make the cool concentric jigsaw effect, the reason for the tutorial is because someone asked how the effect was done the other day, I saved the picture and tried to do it, and the result was to invent this thing. Feel the overall creative style is very good, like friends let us study together.

Effect Chart:

Original:

At first glance, the figure looks like it's made of fan-shaped, but with a closer look, it is very easy to find that this diagram is a regular 5 concentric circles, each concentric circle from 4, 6, 8, 10 slices out of the pie, this map does not really difficult, but still need a little skill and clear ideas I say my method, For you to refer to. Maybe you can do it in a quicker way.

After I finished this tutorial, I found out that it was completely a math problem in primary school.

1, create a new 800x800 canvas, background color black (easy to see the guide line) new two vertical and horizontal guide lines are 400 pixels (because 800÷2=400 well)

Inner Circle 1 Radius: 65 pixels (new guide position 400-65=335) Clearance 1 radius: 15 pixels (Guide position 335-15=320)

Inner Circle 2 Position: 320-65=255 Gap 2 Position: 255-15=240

Inner Circle 3 Position: 240-65=175 Gap 3 Position: 175-15=160

Inner Circle 4 Position: 160-65=95 Gap 4 Position: 95-15=80

Inner Circle 5 Position: 80-65=15

The effect of the painting is as follows:

2, the concentric circular drawing, according to our above parameter to draw the inner circle length, the width: 65x2=130

Gap 1 Length, Width: 15x2=30 So in the center of the long width =130+30=160 and then other circles and gaps are the way to draw, here is the elementary school mathematics knowledge don't say you won't ah, in order to save time, you can calculate the long width of the new 9 blank path layer in the path panel Name the layer as a long width parameter, new circular path when the speed is faster, note the new round path when the mouse pointer to the center of the cross position click, otherwise it will deviate.

All right, I don't know if you've got it figured out, I'll give you the answer to that. (130, 160, 290, 320, 450, 480, 610, 640, 770)

3, create a new path layer, and then select the rectangular Path tool in the center point, long width of 7.5 pixels and then press Ctrl+t to change H to 10,000%

Then convert the path to a selection, fill the white, and the right key layer into a smart object ctrl+j copy one more layer out of the two layers into a group named 4 block, then name two layers 0 and 90 "This is the angle we want to adjust."

4, the Just 4-block group, copy more than 3 groups out of the group folder, press Ctrl+j 3 times "then rename to 6 block, 8 block, 10 block hide 4, 8, 10 block group, we separate to deal with 6 block group: Because a circle to be divided into 6, so you need 3 rectangle is 3 layers." Copy one more layer out on it. "The rectangular angle of each layer is sure everyone also knows, do not know to go back to see Primary school six grade mathematics to" a circle into 6 dollars is 360÷6=60 angle "so 3 layers of angle 0, 60, 120.

The other group's processing method is also according to this method, duplicate the layer to adjust the angle of each layer to draw well as follows, if the other side to dissatisfied also can ctrl+t direct rotation angle

5, OK now the reference line basically does not have any effect, may clear off aspect to see clearly some hides all groups, to put up the top-level group, then creates a new blank layer to select 770 's path in the path panel, CTRL + Carriage, turns to the selection fill color casually.

Select the 640 path to the selection, press DELETE to delete the Select 610 path to the selection, press Alt+delete fill to select the 480 path to the selection, press DELETE delete, and so on, the concentric circle through the fill and delete method.

6, the layer of concentric circles to the background layer above, and then the 4 block group selected, according to the ctrl+t adjustment angle of 30.

Then right-click groups---Merge groups, and each group is merged into separate layers. Select 290 path, press CTRL + ENTER and hold Ctrl+alt, click 130 path continue to hold Ctrl+alt, click 4 block, this way through the selection subtraction, the innermost circle into 4 sector of the constituency to get out of the

Then select the concentric circle layer, ctrl+j 4 slices of pie to create a layer out.

And so on, turn the other circles into a slice fan, and then all set up as a selection, with the new layer to build the effect of the following

If you are not satisfied with the position of the fan, you can adjust the angle on the block layer. I have the angle here is formulated to adjust out, want to personalized students can modify their own.

7, the next is the physical life, dragged into a picture of a piece to get through, drag into the picture, in order to facilitate the adjustment of position, I put the layer opacity to 40%, and then adjust the position when it is much clearer.

After adjusting the position, press CTRL and click the thumbnail of Layer 1 to load the selection

Then "reverse" press the L Lasso tool and press SHIFT to delete the other 3 three fan sets and then press DELETE

So you can get a picture of a single fan, adjusted back to 100% opacity is OK

And so on, physical life is a persistent. Here I will not show all the good content, too tired. That's the way it goes. And then the rest of you do it yourself. After the bottom of the color fan hide, the background layer to white on it

I'm the one that I've spent nearly 1 hours crunching down on.

There may be a lot of people who ask why they don't use masks. In fact, the mask at first I was using a mask, but only applicable to the center circle and four fans to 6 fans when the problem comes,

Some need to manually rub, too troublesome to use the reverse election, a clean, and secondly layer independence, easy maintenance adjustment.

8, the last step of typing, there may be many people will make a lot of people are sure typing out will be like this:

The text is outside the path and the direction is reversed. The solution to this problem is simple, first choose 290 path, then ctrl+t horizontal flip

And then the typing will be solved.

This is the end of the tutorial, a total of 29 pictures (hide one) if not so many pictures can be replaced by text is also good.

The method is this, as for the original image of the warm yellow small fresh style is the late color palette and this tutorial has no direct relationship. Many filters have a palette function and can be directly adjusted, because I have these diagrams are illustrations

The whole color is already in the work inside the tune, I will no longer go to the lily. The tutorial is not technically difficult, mainly the physical work and my previous text image, is a need for patience.
