Building A Tidepool Aquarium

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO CREATE FOG AND SNOW-Tutorial-

votar



Christmas is approaching and winter, and in some places will be beautiful snowy landscapes.

For those places where snow is scarce, and the fog, I created this tutorial, very easy to perform and the most curious, as we will create the effect of a heavy snowfall or of a day with plenty of fog .

all depends on the picture you don't use.

In my case I have used a photo I made last year in Merida exceptionally snowed one day.
I say as usual, the interest of my tutorials is to learn the art for later use in your work.

STARTED:

1. CONTROL + O and open the file you are going to use for this tutorial. (Recommended a photograph containing snow or fog)

2. Ctrl + Shift + N , to create a new layer.

3. Activate Tool DEGRADED , pressing the letter G .

- Select the Linear Gradient as gradient: Color Front / Clear .

- EYE before the path to assure that you have as foreground color WHITE .

- Now, draw a line from top to bottom (press the letter for it to be straight).

4. Lower the Opacity of this layer to 75% (approximately).

5. Then we put in background layer (ie the picture you have chosen) and we apply an "adjustment layer "

- Click on the icon located in the bottom of the Layers palette, which is a circle half white, half black. - Select

SELECTIVE CORRECTION - After opening the dialog box to choose NEUTRAL COLORS , activáis as the METHOD ON (Click small circle, if this option is checked, and that usually comes on by default) and color BLACK Put -45.

6. Situate them back into the layer and then FUND do this:

- IMAGE> ADJUSTMENTS> BRIGHTNESS / CONTRAST : Brightness and Contrast 15 10 .

7. And as a finishing touch to enhance the effect we do this:

- Select the layer where we make the DEGRADED (if you put her name will be the Layer1).

- Change the blending mode to SUPERIMPOSE (as by default you will have the NORMAL mode).

- Lower 65% OPACITY (approximately).

so easy we have created an effect of fog and heavy snow. Then we will continue to create another nice effect ... "Snow on text. "

7. pressing the letter T to activate the tool TEXT , pick a font you like (to this effect will be either a Type COMIC SANS) and enter the text you want.

8. Then click on the icon Add layer styles ( fx) button at the bottom of the Layers palette and select Bevel and Emboss .
-Put these settings: 2px in size; 4px in Smooth and lower the Shadow Mode Opacity to 50% .

9. Do not close the dialog box Layer Style. Then apply the effect STROKE -is on the left side of the dialog box, with this configuration: Size 1px; Opacity 25% as choosing the color black . Click OK .

10. CONTROL + SHIFT + N to create a blank layer and apply these effects: clicking on the icon again fx-add-layer style and select Inner Glow .
- Put these settings: 60% Opacity, choose black as color, Size 3px; Range 60% and other values \u200b\u200bas-is. Pulseis not OK yet.

11. Now select the Bevel and Emboss effect -as I said in step 9 you will find on the left side of the dialog box, and set it by:
- 2px Size and leave the rest as stock comes default. Now click OK to apply these effects in the empty layer that we created in the previous step.

12. Press the letter D to select the color front / back by default, ie black / white and then press the letter X to trade him and get the foreground color white .

13. pressing the letter B to activate the tool BRUSH , choose a 100% hardness and size I leave to your taste but some of 10/20px will be good to create the effect. Then start painting over the areas to place the text wherever you want snow ... and enjoy

That is all. We have learned in an easy and colorful create fog and snow.
I hope you find it useful because it is technical with many variations and applications.

DESIGN IS IMAGINATION
Greetings.
