Making of an Abstract Art Piece: “Lonium”

In this Photoshop tutorial we’ll be walking through the process of making an abstract artwork, using abstract 3D renders, textures, and more.

Indiana Jones Movie Logo/Text Effect

I thought we would celebrate the upcoming release of Indiana Jones IV, the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull by learning how to remake the awesome Indiana Jones text! So, I’m going to attempt to remake the text effect used in the posters and promotional images

Please note that attempt is emphasized above! This is as close as I could get it, I hope it’s good enough!

Add Stock Textures to Images for extra ‘Oomph’

In this little Photoshop tutorial we’ll be designing a quick art piece, then we’ll be adding some texture to it, this is to demonstrate the use of texture in artwork, as you may be able to see in works from people such as GoMedia. Obviously this method will work better with some things and not so well with others, so please try to use it in moderation, if you will.

Yes, my opinion may be a little bit biased in the above image, but you know, you get the point

Intense Solar Flare (Filter) Effect

Well, I think it’s time to travel back a few years in tutorial history and relive those cool filter effect tutorials! I used to love making these things 4 or so years ago when I was just learning Photoshop, good times!

Funky Retro Icecream Effect!

I’m calling this effect the ‘IceCream Retro Effect’ because it reminds me of an icecream commercial I once watched, the colors also suit icecream in my opinion

Tattered Ancient Banner Effect
