Metal Text Effect In Photoshop. Written by Steve Patterson.

Metal Text Effect In Photoshop

In this Photoshop text effects tutorial, we’ll learn how to easily create metal text, a popular effect widely used in video games and movie posters! It may seem like there’s a lot of steps involved, but once you’ve done it a few times, creating the effect won’t take you more than a few minutes from start to finish. To create the metal texture itself and apply it to the text, we’ll be using a couple of layer styles, some filters, layer blend modes, and a clipping mask! I’ll be using Photoshop CS5 for this tutorial but any recent version of Photoshop will work. Here’s the final result we’ll be creating: The final “metal text” effect.

I think with tools which inspires you, everyone can be an artist. You can try it here, change different brush settings and paint your own flame paintings. When you change the background from black to white, the palette changes from additive to subtractive and the feeling of the painting is very different. It's not easy to explain all brush parameters, so I leave this for your experimentation. Check out new Rebelle - the real watercolor and acrylic paint program, Amberlight - abstract art tool based on particles, or Fluidance motion effect program. You can try more experiments here.
