Photoshop to draw a simple switch button icon Tutorial

This tutorial, in fact, is to practice their own play, also just imitate a great god of a simple work, the first time to write a tutorial, relatively simple,

Hope that in the future practice can make a better course for everyone.

Let's look at the difference between the original and my cottage:

Next we'll explain the tutorial:

1. First create a file with a size of 400*300 (random size)

2. Then find a piece of wood as the background, mainly you feel suitable for any, can not find the right to adjust the tone, I was adjusted

3. Select Rounded Rectangle tool, draw an angle of 20px rectangle, fill a color casually, because the following will be a gradient overlay, you can also directly fill gradient color, the following figure:

Gradient values see the following figure, you can also enhance the contrast effect according to your own understanding, but consider the overall light and shade relationship

Then add a 1px stroke with a color of #8d6546

Add bevel and Emboss style, pay attention to the High Line, the default value is good

Inner Shadow

Shadow

This is the current effect

You can make it a little richer by what you feel. Now the switch background is done, then the screws that draw the switch, the screws are smaller, so they need to be handled more subtly,

I did not do too much processing here, just made a simple style, probably looks like (the level is limited), first gives everybody to look at the effect

I use the style briefly, draw a circle with a circle tool, and then use the gradient

Add Stroke

Then use the selection tool to draw a shape like this, or you can use the Pen tool to fill the color #323232

Then add a projection style and fix it. If it doesn't feel like you can play your potential to draw more like a little

And then copy three, and put it in the corresponding position.

Next draw the switch button, which is shown here as an unopened state (should it?)

Also select the rounded rectangle, draw a 20px rounded rectangle, add a gradient style

As shown in figure:

And then copy this layer, ctrl+t, and so on to scale to such a size

Add a color of white, and then add a 1px gradient stroke:

Then copy this layer, cancel all current styles, and then stretch to shape

Then add a gradient style to the layer to shape the change in the light and shadow of the switch.

Current effect:

Now it's about to come out, and then draw a circle with a circle tool with a radius of 12px, add a gradient stroke style

Next, use the Rectangle tool to draw a 2px-high 9px rectangle to use as a light, add a gradient style to the layer, and add a shadow, as shown below:

Current effect:

To do this is almost done, and then we deal with a lighting effect, where we assume that light from the above, so we add some shadow, highlight the effect,

You can follow your own understanding to add rich perfection, as long as the final effect beyond this tutorial

This is the way it is done:

This tutorial only demonstrates a shutdown state of the switch, another open state, you can follow this step to play their own

The final effect of completion!
