Tutorial for:

Spoiler:

This is based on an LJ icon tutorial that made this:

I just made a few tweaks to it so that it would work for this cap of Teyla:

Using Photoshop Elements.

I cropped it and then duplicated it once, setting it to screen 60% opacity. Then duplicated it again and set it to soft light 35%

The added this gradient:
Mirrored it and set to Lighten 82%

Then added this:
Mirrored it and set to screen 72%

Added this:
Mirrored and set to Lighten 100%

Added this:
Mirrored and set to soft light 65%

Then I merged all visible and duplicated the layer setting it to soft light 100% (I think it was 100%, might have been more like 90% though).

Then added this:
Mirrored and set to Lighten 92%

Added this:
Mirrored and set to screen 100%

Added this:
Mirrored and set to screen 100%

Added the text: Teyla in font Futurist Fixed-width in white.

Added this:
Mirrored and set to screen 100%

Finally added a small white line at the bottom of 2 pixel width:


And ended up with this:

Awesome tut Cazz, it was hard to make (so many layers) but worth it I only don't understand what for is this tiny line at the end? It appears before with one of these layers...? Here is what I've got:

Awesome I think the white line just frames the pic better, I'm not really sure

awesome.. and so many layers? and is this mirroring only turning the pic or is it a function?

By mirroring I just mean flipping the textures back to front, the pic of Teyla is on the opposite side to the one of Sawyer so I had to flip all the textures to the opposite side as well

[bandcat]

cazz thanks for the icon tut will give that a go

luci love the new shep sig!!!

achaja great work !!!

BTW does anyone have any good links for tuts for sigs?

aah, ok, thought so but wanted to be sure. thank you

[bandcat]

okay a couple of sigs and some icons from me

[CazzBlade]

Lovely work bandcat I don't have any LJ links for sig tuts, you could try using the search function on the Sam/Jack artwork thread for tutorials, I think there are some in there

Nominations are open for the 2008 Stargate Fan awards! http://www.sg-awards.com/p/content_i...tent_index.php

[Luciana]

Yes, great arts bandcat. I'm amazed.

You could also use LJ find to look for sig tuts people posted on LJ.

And there's a LJ community with some useful tuts.
I posted my own House tutorial there.

Cazzblade: Thanks for the Teyla icon tutorial.

Achaja: Your Teyla icon looks great!

Bandcat: I love your banners and icons.

Luciana: I love your John banner and thanks for the tutorial links.

[DJgirl]

Thank you Serena- so it fits more for the Christmas style sig

Aww Luci - what a lips very sexy artwork IMO

Yay DJgirl that's fantastic- use it as much as possible before it ends *waits for your artworks*

((Rachel))- I love this style, this round edges! Whole the idea is perfect! Long time no seeing Wraith artworks, thanks for sharing!!!

Hopefully I will have some time to play around with it this evening.

Woot! Thanks Luci
