Photoshop Tutorial: How to create vector magic hat

 

I don't know much a bout it in Illustrator. Most of people who can design sure they will draw this in Illustrator. But I hope this tutorial could bring you new thing with Photoshop. No need to talk much about this. let start now.

Create a new document size: 1179 pixels x 1179 pixels and solution 300 pixels. As what I have told before I like to use big solution because it can help to make my image more clear.

After a new layer has created give a Gradient Style like below.


use your pen tool to draw a hat or if you like your own hat please do it. It can save your time too. After you draw create new layer then fill color what ever you like and give some style like Bevel and Emboss 
* style: Inner Bevel
* Technique: smooth
* Dept: 71%
* Size: 6%
* Soften: 6%


And add Gradient like image. I hope you can read the image.


Then here it is 
Press U select Elepse Tool to draw a cycle and give some style like the old one just now I did. 

It should look like this after I had edit my style. I copied old layer style to this one. If you like you can do that by right click on that layer select copy layer style and past the layer you want. That's it.

Then copy that cycle layer by press Clt + J to make a new layer and transform it smaller put it on the top and edit the Gradient style. See image.
Now we got a black hat. Again use your pen tool to draw a small bat and copy your layer style.
 
And draw the 3 red cycle note. I think it won't hard to do that. I know you can because you know well about Photoshop.

 
Type text as vector magic and make it as a phrase then vertical . Go to filter choose distort and shear

 
hear the result after shear.

 
Duplicate this shear layer in to 2 and reflex it then give some outer glow.
* Blend mode: color dodge
* Opacity: 83%
* Technique: softer
* Size: 24
 
merge that together and duplicate again but this time give it a black color no outer glow and opacity only 30% make it small or bigger a bit to become a shadow.
new thing, draw some thing which is along the vector magic way and give some style.
Out glow
* Bleng mode: screen
* Opecity: 100%
* Color: white
* Technique: softer
* Size: 84

Color Overlay
* Blend mode: normal color is the same or similar to the vector magic phrass
* Opecity: 39

Then you will have you drawing like this image.
Move it into vector way. Then the color will appear. 
 Make some light by giving the same layer style at around that light as seen in image. 
 
Copy and pass it around inside the hat. then your shine light will give a cool effect. 
How do you feel now. It is almost finish. Add some brush light on it. Press B and go to brush setting. Set as the same or what you like. 
Start brush now and you will have.
 
 The final just make a black shadow on below all the layer. Here we got the result.

 
Abobe all I hope you will enjoy and share it. Enjoy more post here....

Let make a new document size: 10 x 10 cm and apply Gradient as seen below:

and get a magic glass to your work.
We make a shadow below this glass and also make this glass might lightness.
1- make glass more lightness ==> image adjustment ==>Curves (Ctrl + M) apply lightness as below.
2- We make a shadow below this glass. Use Elliptical Marquee Tool (M) draw it and apply black color and go to Filter => Blur ==> Gaussian Blur then set Radius: 4.0 pixels
Use Elliptical Marquee again to draw to of glass apply white color and make it a bit blur (to make it blur just follow above instruction) and apply Outer Glow with below option:
  • Filter ==> Layer Style ==> Outer Glow

Illustrator tutorial: Vector background

Well it was difficult for me to think and created this vector background. It might easy if you only one look into it but the way to design it you might understand how it process. So please do not scroll down yet you can tell me how many steps would you do on this design?

Let me recap to you, will do only 3 basic steps. 1) the Mesh background, 2) Vector style and 3) Dot style. See below details and steps you will clearly understand it and be able to design yourself.

Step 1: Make a Mesh background.
Create a new document size: 5cm x 5cm and fill in black color. Get your Mesh Tool (U) ready.
In this below image you have to do as follow:
- Adjust your document in CMYK
- Align you foreground in pink ( you can use your own color)
- Click on the black background as given above.  
Keep on doing this Mesh background till it become like this.
Step 2: Use Rectangle Tool (M) make a long object and a square object. Align together and cutting a shape object with Pathfinder by press Ctrl + Shift + F9 and choose Intersect Shape Areas.
Change the Document into RGB. Fill in Gradient with details Type: Linear, Angle: 45 and in the Transparency tap Blending mode: Color Dodge.

then keep repeat the same adjustment. In the long way of using Rectangle Tool (M), Pathfinder, Gradient and Transparency
As mention above please keep on doing and repeat the action of this object until you finally get below image. But one thing you must change it while doing this. The Angle of Grandient above part is 45 and below part is 135. Or you can use your own style and color.
Step 3: Use Ellipse Tool (L) drawing a cycle object and fill in black and white Gradient then align as Screen in the Transparency tab.
Just last step make this object small and big and past it here and there full of the background image. Then finally your result is a nice Vector background.
Thank you for your time and tuning for my tutorial. After you read through I would ask for your comment as below to support my job and share it to your friends. I still have more to posts. If you are not able or misunderstanding this tutorials just post here.

Vector 3D Star Icon Design in Illustrator

Hi every one as in my previous post I did to mention some of the 3D Tool both in Photoshop and Illustrator. And now I like to show you another easy way to make a 3D star Icon in Illustrator as you see it below.
Start up your Illustrator now and make a new document size 10 x 10 cm. Then select Rounded Rectangle Tool then draw this below.
Back to Star Tool draw it in the middle of Rounded object (please remember to make copy of this Star Object you might need to use it after this). Press Ctrl+Shift+F9 to view the PathFinder or if you want to remember it just go=> Window menu => PathFinder. Select both of these object (Rounded and star) and press Exclude Overlapping Sharp Areas and press expand right after these 2 objects become one object.
Alright now we have a rounded object which is star whole in the middle. Make it 3D go => Effect Menu => 3D => Extrude and Bavel
A dialog is appeared once you select as what I told you. You don't have to edit it all just seethe red cycle 22 green -26 blue 8 and the Extrude Depth is 20
Then here is the 3D Star Rounded.
Remember I told you to copy the Star Object. Now it is time to use and do it the same way as above option. After you done it duplicate this Star into 2 and expand one of it. For me I use left object and hide the right one. To do that just follow here. Select left star object and go to Object Menu=> Expand Appearance.


Then un-group it all or just double click and delete 3D shadow of this star. Let's name it a Black Star.

With this Black Star please un-fill its color (just leave it blank) and apply the Black Star Stroke in white color.


Go to Object Menu=>Path=>Offset Path... We make this Offset Path is to resize its stroke in a fit size of a star. Sorry because my English is still poor. Some of you might not understand please contact me via my email at chetsary@gmail.com or drop me a comment.


Here our 3D Star Rounded result.

Now you will see some style to make the 3D Star Rounded appear clearly. To do that just select the 3D Star Rounded (except the white star stroke). Expand it now go to Object Menu => Expand Appearance. Double click and select the All 3D Shadow => Ctrl+Shift+F9 in the Pathfinder box => Add to shape area do like this is to merge that Shadow to become 1 Shadow then Gradient in a bit black color. Same way to front part of the Star.

Open up the right 3D which we had hired it and using the same way of making 3D Style and option. Style as what you want. The below is the final result.

How do you enjoy this post. I know it is a simple design but every one must start from the beggining. Have you say somethings yet to this tutorial. Drop me a comment and subscripe to my comment to get my latest reply. Thanks for tuning and keep stay back to me.
