It appears that this week we have 3 new good Photoshop tutorials from PSD Tuts, a few from DeviantArt and also sxc.hu (yeah, they do tutorials too). Some of these tutorials are pretty amazing so I’m inviting you to learn what they’re offering.

Create a Spectacular Grass Text Effect in Photoshop

Author’s comment: “Ever wanted to make text out of grass? Well with Photoshop you can. In this tutorial we’ll create a rather cool looking grass-text effect using a photo of grass, the pen tool and a bit of patience.

This is the first of a five part set of tutorials where we’ll use Photoshop to make text out of all sorts of things. So let’s get ready to Photoshop!”

Making of The Blues Singer Leaves Town

Author’s comment: “This picture was done in a hot summer day, in the memory of an old anime series I used to watch as a kid, about Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. Historically, it’s off from that period, but it’s the feeling of summer, childhood fascination and nature that I wanted to re-create. It’s also a tribute to music.”

Create an Impressive Mock-up of a Grunge Box

Author’s comment: “Learn how to create impressive mock-up designs. In this tutorial, you will learn how to use the Vanishing Point Filter to get quick and professional presentation results. The final result is a realistic looking box, which looks well-worn, as if it was shipped worldwide. Use these techniques to create other mock-ups in your design work as well.”

Creating Dreamy Photos

Author’s comment: “In this tutorial, I’ll show you, in simple, easy steps, one of my favorite techniques- one that I think looks incredible on almost any photo.”

The Most ADVANCED GAME Layout

Author’s comment: “Today I will create a more advanced tutorial. I will make a game layout (very detailed)

Before you want to start to create a new website, you need to think about how the website will earn revenue. Either you create a hobby website, or a commercial website, you need to think always at the revenue.”

Create Cool Watercolor Effects in Photoshop

Author’s comment: “Sometime ago I wrote an article on my blog listing some fashion style illustrations from really amazing designers such as: Bruno Fujii, Margot Mace, Raphaël of My Dead Pony, Stina Person, and others. The coolest thing in their design work is their use of watercolor effects. So in this tutorial I will show a quick way to simulate that effect using only Photoshop and some Brushes.”

Airbrush Tutorial I

Author’s comment: “Airbrushing is always subject to a lot of discussion. Mostly the discussion ends up dividing people into two groups. Those who hate it, and those who simply love it!

In my oppinion the last group of people is the worst :) Mostly because many in this group tend to ‘over airbrush’ their models.

In other words its a balance to eliminate blemishes, errors and still keeping the model looking alive and healthy – and not something from a Wax museum.”

Easy Realism Eye Tutorial

Author’s comment: “A very quick way of doing realism/semi realism eyes. The more time you spend on them the better they’ll look. Feel free to add more colors, experament and so forth. Use whatever blenders you feel most comfertable using. I use the smudge tool on a high pressure.”

Creating a water droplet

Author’s comment: None

Anime eyes tutorial

Author’s comment: “Finally, after countless requests, I made a full tutorial just on how I do eyes. It really is simple, after a few tries I think you should be able to do it (as long as you know how to insert layers, etc. in photoshop).”

Logotype tutorial

Author’s comment: “OMITTED STEP: TO FIX THE LOW QUALITY RESULT
As for some of the issues brought up: I realize the distortion results in a low quality logotype, I did not include the final step because of size constraints…but to fix it is simple: work at a much larger scale, when you finish up simply scale it down and it will get rid of the jaggies and make everything sharp again.”

Text with metal border

Author’s comment: “I will show you a nice text effect, very used on web.
The text will have a nice metallic border.”
