Chrome 3D Text Using Image Based Lights


In this tutorial we’ll create this awesome chrome 3D text using Image Based Lights in Photoshop CS6 Extended.
Image Based Lights, or IBLs as they are known, are lights created out of images, and applied to 3D objects in Photoshop. This creates a realistic environment for the 3D object that you are working with.
3D in Photoshop is extremely powerful and I’m sure you’ll be surprised on how easy it is to achieve great results.
This technique is not new to Photoshop, in fact Photoshop CS5 allowed you to create image based lights. However Photoshop CS6 is so much better at it, and the new user interface is much easier to use and understand.

Use textures and shading to give your art a handmade feel


In this tutorial, Dominique Byron explains how to add textures to your work to give it a handmade feel, and how to combine these with shading and highlights to provide extra detail to your image.

Adding subtle textures to digital work makes it more interesting and can introduce depth to an image that looks quite flat. It also makes the piece appear less computer generated, adding a bit of mystery as to how it was created. This allows Dominique to add an organic flavour to her work’s geometric base.

Create art that celebrates the Diamond Jubilee

With Photoshop, you can make art out of anything. During a graphic design contest held in Belgium, graphic designer Maxime Quoilin wanted to create something truly original and ‘of the moment’. He got out his camera, went into the crowd, and randomly took pictures of those attending to include in his creation -- and has produced a work that taps into the celebratory mood of this weekend's Diamond Jubilee here in the UK.
