Rename created layer « Shield ».

Step 3 : Create a first border

To simulate the stone shield border, add a gradient. To do it use the Layer styles (menu Layer> Layer styles> Gradient overlay).

A new window gets open, use the settings from the following picture for inner shadow.

Step 4: Create a second border

To give more reality to the metallic borders, you need to create a second border to simulate a relief, to do it, you only use to duplicate the layer and to update the gradient.

To start this operation, right click on the layer « Shield » and select Duplicate Layer. A copy
appears, rename it “Shield 2” then right click again on “Shield 2” and select Delete the Layer style.

Then hit Ctrl/Cmd + T to active the free transform and increase the size by 97% (height and width in the option tools on the top side). Type “Enter” to validate updates.

To close this step, apply a gradient, go to the menu and follow the hereby setting.

Step5: Create the inner shield

To create the inner shield, it’s easy because it is similar to previous step. Duplicate the layer “Shield 2”, rename it “inside” then delete its layer style and apply it a colour overlay.

I do not explain it once again, please refer to previous step

Notice: instead to apply a Gradient, you have here to apply a colour, the nuance is located in the Layer style menu, in place of clicking on Gradient overlay, click on Colour overlay.

Here is the colour to use : #140074

Step 6 : Create a Checkerbord

This step is regarding the creation of a Checkerboard, to do it perfect, you need to define some guides on your picture.

Press on Ctrl/Cmd + R to display the rules, then put a mark on the top, the bottom, the left and the right of the shield. Then, with the tool Rectangular marquee tool (M) and the Info panel, define in pixels, the height and width of your shield, to know where to put the marks of the middle place (vertical et horizontal).

Duplicate the layer « Inside » (right click and select Duplicate the layer). Rename it “Checkerboard”. Update now the inset colour by: #0080c1.

Then use the Rectangular marquee tool (M) to delete the right and left low parts

Step 7: Create the first reflect 1/2

To increase the shine effect on the reflect, the first one has to be quiet and has to be put on the right bottom.

To create it, retrieve first the layer “Inside” selection, press on Ctrl/Cmd + click on the layer thumbnail.

Now, create a new layer (Ctrl/Cmd + Upcase + N or menu Layer> New> Layer) and name it “Reflect 1”.

Then select the Gradient tool (G) and in the gradient selector choice the second Foreground to transparent

Update the foreground stage by the white.

Create a gradient on the layer, starting from the bottom to the top (Do not forget to keep Shift pressed while making the gradient).

Step 8: Create the first reflect 2/2

The goal of this step is to decrease the reflect previously created. For this operation, use the tool Layer Mask/

Start to select the layer « Reflect 1 » then go to the menu Layer > Layer mask> Reveal all

Then select the Brush tool (B) and select in the Brush Preset Picker the Soft round, size 150px then reduce the opaqueness of 10% (check the options tool bar on top of screen). Update now the foreground colour by the black.

On the layer mask, use the Brush tool (B) to be able to shadow the centre of the reflect. Do it at the instance of the picture below:

Step 9: Create another reflect

The creation of this reflect is not really easy and needs a meticulous attention, take care you do not jump on of the next points of this step.

Start with the duplication of the layer « inside », put it over all other, rename it ‘Reflect base ». Press Ctrl/Cmd + T then reduce the size of 97%.

Retrieve the selection of this layer (Ctrl/Cmd + click on the thumbnail).

Shadow the layer “Reflect base”.

Create a new layer and rename it « Reflect 2 ».

Edit the foreground colour by the white and go to the menu Edit> Fill.

Then go to the menu Layer> Layer style> Blending options and decrease the Fill opacity to 50%

Then go to the Inner glow and take example on the hereby picture to setup it

Create a new layer under the layer « Reflect 2 ».
Merge the both layers together (select both layers at the same time and right click and select Merge layers) Rename the new layer you get so, in “Reflect 2”. This operation allows you to crush the layers styles.

Use the Selection tool (M) and then, delete the right part (use the marks for it)

And to finish, use a Layer mask and the Gradient tool to shadow the top part of this new reflect (the technique of Layer mask has been detailed in step 7).

Step 10: Create a new reflect

Use the same method now, for the creation of a rounded “reflect”, on the right.

Step 11: The last reflect

Use once again the same technique of Layer mask to create a reflect on the top left side of the Shield.

Step 12 : Create stripes

For creation of stripes, nothing is easier than this operation. Select the Line Tool (U) then change the foreground colour by the white and the weight to 30px.

Create now a new group (menu Layer> New> Group). Rename this group “Stripes”.

Change the foreground colour and draw a stripe in the middle of your picture (think about to keep the Shift key pressed)

Duplicate this stripe and move it to 50 pixels to the bottom (use the move tool (V) and use the keyboard arrows, the Uppercase key allow you to move an element from 10 to 10 pixels)

Repeat it to create 4 stripes.

To finish with it, select the group “Stripes” and activate the free transformation (Ctrl/Cmd + T)
In the bar tool options, on the top of the screen, enter 30 as rotation grade and press Enter.

Step 13: Coating

Right click on the mouse on the group « Stripes » and select Merge group.

Retrieve the outline of the layer « Stripes ». Go then to the menu Selection> Invert.

Select the layer « Stripes » et press the Delete key.

Use the Move tool (V) to check if some residues do not exist on the invisible parts of stripes, if it is the case, delete them using the Rubber (E).

And now, to finish, go to the menu Layer> Layers style and add a Gradient overlay, an Inner glow and a darkness.

Keep example on these pictures for the setup

All this get this result

To go ahead in the future regarding the icon creation, you can also change the colours or why not, you can add darkness on the bottom.

In this Photoshop tutorial I will show you how to build a layout to create a website for a webdesigner or a little webagency. I don’t think this tutorial will be easy for beginners, so If you have some knowledge in webdesign… there you go!

So now, go ahead to start this tutorial, open Photoshop and follow my explanations step by step, I see you by the final step

But after look at the final result of this Photoshop tutorial (or click here to download the psd file):

Step 1 – Create a new document

To start the creation you need of course to create a new document, go to File> New (Ctrl/Cmd + N) and edit the name (Template in my example), change the canvas width (980px) and height (1000px).

Step 2 – Create the background

Change the foreground colour to dark brown (#38332f) and go to Edit> Fill or hit Shift + F5. The layer “Background” is insistently filled in brown.

Step 3 – Create the guides

Go to View> Show> Guides (or use the shortcut Ctrl/Cmd + , and create a new horizontal guide on 80th pixels, to do it go to View> New guide> select horizontal, enter 80px and hit Ok. Do it again to create a horizontal guide on each pixel: 30, 40, 80, 310, 320, 330, 350, 570, 770 and 780. And now do it again with the vertical guides: 50, 330, 350, 630, 650, 660, 920, and to finish 930.

Step 4 – Create the header

Create a new group and name it “header”. Select with the Rectangular marquee tool (M) the top of the canvas (height 80px). Create a new layer (go to Layer> New> Layer or hit Ctrl/Cmd + N) and name it “header bg”, now use the white colour to fill in the selection.

Step 5 – Fill in the header

Now you’re going to add a gradient into the header, go to Layer> Layer style> Gradient overlay and configure the colour: grey to light grey.

Step 6 – Add the logotype

To create the logotype you have to start with the creation of a new group (name it “logotype”) then create a new layer (go to Layer> New> Layer or hit Ctrl/Cmd + N) and name it “cube” On this layer create a cube (use the Rectangular marquee tool (M) to do it, don’t forget to hit the Shift to keep a good proportion) fill it with a gradient (use the layer styles).

Use the Type tool to add a big 2 above the cube, drop it on the bottom right corner. Then, right-click on layer “2” and select Rasterize type. To finish, go to Layer> Layer style> Inner shadow and use the settings from the following image for Inner Shadow.

And to finish the logotype, use once again the Type tool to add the title (for your information I used the Kabel font in this example).

Step 7 – Create the menu

Begin the menu to create a new group (go to Layer> New> Group) and name it “Menu” then select the Rounded Rectangle Tool (U), set the radius to 50px and create a rounded rectangle on the top side on the right of the lofotype. Use the guides to help.

Rename the layer “menu bg” and design it with a gradient and a stroke (use the layer styles to add them). Go to Layer> Layer style> Gradient overlay and use the settings from the following images.

Use the Type tool to add the links.

Right-click on the layer “menu bg” and select duplicate the layer. To create the hover effect on the menu you’re going to change the colour of the first link to red (just change the layer styles on the menu bg copy layer)!

Now right-click on the layer “menu bg copy” and select Rasterize layer and cut the right side. Then change the colour of the first link to the white.

And to finish add a drop shadow on the layer “menu bg”, use the settings from the following image.

And to finish the menu you must create a separation between the links. To do it create a new layer (go to Layer> New> Layer or hit Ctrl/Cmd + N) and name it “separation”, use the Rectangular marquee tool (M) to create a selection from the top to the bottom. This separation is made with a first grey line (#c2c2c2) and a second white line (#fff). Take a look at the following image for reference.

And duplicate the layer separation time to time.

Step 8 – Create the carousel

Create a new group (go to Layer> New> Group) and name it “Carousel”. In this group create a new layer (go to Layer> New> Layer or hit Ctrl/Cmd + N) and name it “Carousel bg”. Then use the Rectangular marquee tool (M) to create a rectangular selection of 280×300px on the right side of your document. Change the foreground colour to the white and go to Edit> Fill.

Create a new layer (go to Layer> New> Layer or hit Ctrl/Cmd + N) and name it “shadow”, now change the foreground colour by the black and hit Ctrl/Cmd + D. Go now to Filter> Blur> Gaussian blur (5px). To finish reduce the opacity to 20%.

Create a new layer (go to Layer> New> Layer or hit Ctrl/Cmd + N) and name it “picture”, go to Select> Modify> contract and enter 10 px and hit Ok. Then fill in the selection with a dark grey.

Step 9 – New header

Create a new group and name it “header 2”. Select the Rectangle Tool (U) and create a brown rectangle beneath the top header. Use the Type tool (T) to add a little description.

Add the button*

Select the Rectangle Tool (U) and create a lighted brown rectangle beneath the header 2. Add an inner shadow (go to Layer> Layer Style> Inner shadow) into this rectangle, using the settings from the following image.

Add a little text with the type tool (T).

Step 10 – The content

Create a new main group and name it “Content”, create directly three new groups inside and name them “bloc1”, “bloc2” and “bloc3”.

Select the Rectangle Tool (U) and create a white rectangle.

Use the Type tool (T) to add the first title and a description. Drop it in “bloc1”.

Download this icons pack from here: http://www.tutorial9.net/resources/nixus-icon-pack-60-beautiful-premium-icons-free/ and import an icon in your bloc1.

And do these last steps two more times to fill in the bloc 2 and 3.

Step 11 – Testimonial

Create a new group and name it “Testimonial”, in this group create a new layer and name it “testimonial bg”.

Using the Rectangular marquee tool (M) select the bottom side of the white rectangle. Then fill it in with light grey #e5e5e5.

Create a new layer and name it “stroke”, move to the top the selection of 2px and fill in the selection with the same grey, now move it down to 1px and hit Delete.

Using the Type tool (T) add a title and a description.

And duplicate the button* (already created in the header) and drop it to the right of the title.

And to finish, add the picture** of the customer on the left of the message.

Step 12 – The footer

The tutorial is soon finished : ) you have to create the footer and it will be done!

So, create a new main group (go to Layer> New> Group) and name it “Footer”, in this group create a new layer (go to Layer> New> Layer or hit Ctrl/Cmd + N) and name it “dark stroke”. Using the Rectangular marquee tool (M) create a selection of 5px beneath the testimonial area. Change the foreground colour to the dark brown (#171513) and fill in the selection.

Select the three layers of the titles on the content area and right click and select duplicate the layers. Drag and drop them on the footer group and move these titles in the footer. Switch the colour to light grey (#e5e5e5).

Use the Type tool (T) to add a list beneath the first title on the footer.

Using the Custom shape tool (U) create a little arrow before the link in the list. Add a drop shadow, go to Layer> Layer style> Drop shadow, using the settings from the following image.

Duplicate the arrow and put one of them before each link.

Bring together all layers of the first bloc in the footer in a new group (bloc1). Create two news groups and name them “bloc2” and “bloc3”. Duplicate the list (text and arrow) and put one of them on the bloc2 and the other in the bloc3.

Facultative step, in the bloc1 you can delete the list to add a little form. To create the form use the Rounded rectangle tool (U) with a radius of 10px. I used the colour: light grey # e5e5e5 and red #e83116. Use the Type tool (T) to add the label and Send in the red button.

Step 13 – Copyright

And to finish this tutorial create the last group on the group “footer” and name it “copyright”. Use the Rectangular marquee tool (M) to select the bottom of your document, create a new layer (Layer> New> Layer) and fill in this selection with this colour: # 47413c, move down the selection to 1px and fill in it again with this other colour: #171513.

Create a new layer and use the foreground > transparent gradient (Gradient tool) to create a gradient on the top of the copyright area (use the black #000000).

Use the type tool to add a little copyright (on the left) and duplicate the logo and drop the copy to the bottom right side.

This Photoshop tutorial is perfect for all Dragon ball Z fans, In fact with this Photoshop tutorial you’ll learn how to create a shining energy ball. It’s easy, you just use the transparent and lighting effects… But before to start with the details, I let you discover the final result:

To do this tutorial you have to use a specific picture, I downloaded it from the Fotolia website. I invite you to subscribe and to download this picture. Here are the link to go to the website, and the direct link to go to the direct page.

So, now you are ready to start this tutorial:

STEP 1

Open Photoshop then create a new document, it measures 600×900 pixels. Now change the foreground colour by this colour #1a3e70 and go to the menu Edition> Fill. The background is now switched to the blue.

STEP 2

The first important part of this Photoshop tutorial will be to create the full background picture. To start it, create a new group and rename it “Background” (to create a group go to the menu Layer> New> Group). Then create a new layer on this group, and name this layer “Background” too. To finish this step hitting D to restore the default colours and go to the menu Filter> Render> Clouds.

STEP 3

Now go back to the menu Filter> Pixelate> Mezzotint, select in the type menu Short stroke and press Ok.

STEP 4

No it’s not finished with the filters Go once again to the menu Filter> Blur> Radial Blur and change the configuration as: Amount: 100px, Blue method: Zoom, and Quality : Best.

And to finish this step hitting Ctrl/Cmd + F to do the same filter one more time.

STEP 5

Now duplicate the layer “Background“, to do it, select it and hitting Ctrl/Cmd + J to duplicate automatically the selected layer ! Select the copy and go to the menu Filter> Sketch> Chrome and configure the options as: Detail: 10 and Smoothness: 10, and press OK.

STEP 6

To add some colour to your background, you’re going to use a layer with Colour blending mode! nd here how to do? Then, create a new layer (go to the menu Layer> New> Layer or hitting Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + N), name it “Coulours”. Select the Brush tool (B) and select a very large Soft round brush preset.

Change the Foreground Color by #498ecc and use the Brush tool on the center of your picture. Little by little use the Brush tool to join the borders (sometimes change the Brush tool colour like that, center #498ecc, middle #30628e and near the borders #183248).

STEP 7

Set this layers blending mode to Color, the Blending mode menu is on the left top of the layers windows.

And to finish this step, reduce the opacity of the Background copy layer to 50%.

STEP 8

The part regarding the background creation is finished, you must now start the character creation, and to do it you have to download this picture from the Fotolia website, here is the direct url : http://www.fotolia.com/id/9182962. Go back to Photoshop and go to the menu Files> Place and select the picture file.

Then hitting Ctrl/Cmd + T to activate the Free transform and reduce the character size. Don’t forget to hit Shit to keep the picture proportion.

And to finish this step, delete the background to keep just the guy. To do it, create a shape around the guy with the Pen tool (P).

Create a selection around the guy (Ctrl/Cmd + click on the layer “Shape 1” thumbnail (in the layer panel)… Then select the layer “Fotolia” and go to the menu Select> Inverse and hitting Delete to remove the background (to finish, hide the Shape 1 layer).

STEP 09

Great, the twice important parts are now finished (background and character) you must now start the creation of the shining energy balls! Hitting several times Ctrl/Cmd + to zoom on the guy left hand and hitting Ctrl/Cmd + D to deselect and create a new group, name it First ball. Then select the Ellipse tool (U), switch the foreground color by the white and draw a perfect ellipse under the hand (don’t forget to hit Shift).

STEP 10

I have a really good trick to transform a simple white ellipse to a 3D transparent ball. To do it, right click on the layer “Shape 2” and select Rasterize layer. Then go to the menu Layer> Layer mask> Reveal all (you can see the layer mask added on the right of the Shape 2 thumbnail). Now select the Brush tool, select the soft round 35px brush preset (on the brush preset picker), lower the opacity to 20% and change the foreground color to the black.

On the Layer mask, use the Brush tool, doing rotation movements, start by outlines and finish by the centre, especially insist on the centre.

STEP 11

Duplicate the layer Shape 2 (right click on the layer and select duplicate this layer). Then select the layer copy and go to the menu Filter> Blur> Gaussian blur, enter 10 pixels and press Ok. To finish, use again the layer mask to hide the light under the ellipse.

STEP 12

Now, to add some colours on the ball, create a new layer and name it Colours. Select the Brush tool (B) (check the last configuration is available yet) and pick a blue foreground color, and use the Brush tool under the ball.

Set this layer blending mode to Color, the Blending mode menu is on the left top of the layers windows.

STEP 13

The last part to finish the energy ball effect is the creation of the energyshine around the ball. To do it, begin to hide the background group, and the character layer.

Then create a new layer into the First ball group, name it “Shines” and put it under the Colours layer. Then select the Brush Tool (B) and select Hard round 10px brush preset; change the foreground color to the white, extend the opacity to 100%. Use the brush to draw a doodle energy shines around the ball (don’t hesitate to use different brush sizes to do them).

STEP 14

Select the Rectangular marquee tool and create a cubic selection around the ball (behind, you have to create a large margin between the border ball and the border selection).

STEP 15
And now, go to the menu Filter> Blur> Radial Blur use the same configuration like the one used by step 4. Hitting Ctrl/Cmd + F to use the same filter, again and again.

STEP 16

Display all layers to view the result.

STEP 17

Now, to create the second ball, you have two options, the first one is really long and consists to do again all steps to draw the ball (steps 10 to 17) and the second one is shorter, it consists to duplicate the ball group and to drop it to the right border of the picture.

As I am a bit lazy, I’m going to choice the second solution. So, right click on the First ball group and select duplicate this group, rename this copy: Second ball. Then, select Move tool (V) and slide the group under the hand on the right border of the picture. Now go to the menu Edition> Transform> Flip horizontal.

To finish, select the layer Shines copy and hitting Ctrl/Cmd + T to activate the Free transform. Apply a rotation onto the shines on the right.

STEP 18

So we are still on the next to last step : ) Everything is finished, the background, the character and the energy balls. But you’re going to hide a bit the background. Select the Background group and go to the menu Layer> Layer Mask> Hide all.

Change the foreground color to the white, and select the Brush tool (B) with a large soft round 300 pixels brush preset, lower the opacity to 20%. Use the brush tool on the centre of the layer mask to let appear the background.

STEP 19

And now the final step of this tutorial, download this picture, available on http://dbz-bt3.allmyblog.com/images/dbz-bt3/dbz-bt3_20070619_225528.jpg and import it into your canvas (name the layer “Logo”). Use the Pen tool trick to delete the background to keep only and only the logotype. To finish, select the layer “Logo” and go to Layer> Layer style and select Outer glow, change the blending mode to Soft light, the opacity to 50%, the color to white, the size to 20px, press OK to add your layer style.

Well the tutorial is finished, look at the result:
