Simple Text Design Demo

[johnnysart]

Heres what I did for 0212353 sig text.


After saving 4 designs in text art I go back to photoshop element 4 and basically sandwich everything together- than erase some of the light blue.
I copy the light blue and remove color than I go under brightness/contrast and push the brightness up a few notches as well as the contrast to make it white but not all the way.

I also move the black layer to the front then use the lasso tool to select then erase half of the lettering.
Then I just use my eraser tool set at a smaller size to erase a bunch of small area's on the black part.



Oh incase your wondering about the chrome part of the text--I decided not to use it -only the outline.

[johnnysart]

Thank you sir's--I just wanted to show that I do customize the sigs. I'll have to do another on layers, color, erasing and etc.

I'm hopping these simple demo's will help out afterwards you'll see it's not that bad.

 

[SMKN]

Hell yeah Johhny! whenever, I will look and see if there is a better picture in the meantime.

 

[johnnysart]

what font did you start with? Or am I just crazy to think that its a regular ol' font you used? LOL

 

[johnnysart]

I looked around for a while until I decided Brook 23 looked good.
When I get board I usually look for free fonts at "dafont" website just google it.

 

[0212353]

thanks! I might have to play around tonight.

 

[SMKN]

ok Johnny use this pic the font I prefer is ethnocentric It would be cool if the smoke was animated off the letters, I may be asking too much.....

 

[johnnysart]

I down loaded the font. now did you want the smoke on the inside or outside of the letters?

If you think your asking too much-I guess you haven't seen allot of my older work. I can do it.

 

[SMKN]

LOL no I know you are more than capable!!! in or out I am not picky, which do you think will look better? maybe like the letters were actually smoking
