Create a Graffiti
Posted by fanatic on December 12, 2007STEP 1: Select a good picture or texture to add the graffiti. We selected this wall:
STEP 2: Type your text. Is very important that you choose an appropiated font.
STEP 3: Right click in the text layer and Rasterize Type.
STEP 4: Duplicate the layer. On the new layer, press CTRL and click the text layer to select the content of the layer and go to Select -> Modify -> Border. Use a width of around 15 px.
.
STEP 5: Select the Paint Bucket Tool (G) and paint the selection. Then erase it pressing the backspace key to obtain this effect:
STEP 6: Select the text layer. Select the Gradient Tool (G) and define the colors:
Press CTRL and click the layer to select the text. Apply the gradient:
STEP 7: Change the Blend Mode to Soft Light. Now the wall is visible through the text.
STEP 8: Go to Add a layer style and select Drop Shadow. Apply these values:
STEP 9: Select the Smudge Tool (R), and drag the graffiti down to simulate little drops.
