K one thing before we start my comp doesn’t like to take screenshots but I can post the finished version so yeah here we go…


Step 1.
Make whatever size doc you want but make a Transparent BG

Step 2.
Make your selection then fill with white, then deselect you don’t have too but I think it looks better when add some indents with single row marquee tool or any other tool you want.But not too much.

Step 3.
Now with only the BG layer selected (only suppose to have BG layer) add these blending options…

Blending Options : Custom... only two changes Change knock out to deep, and check Blend interior effects as group <-------Must Be Done For Right Result-------

Lol, it&#39;s a full sig tutorial section why are you posting a tut that teach us how to make a piece of metal? : /

Enlighten me.

[Dragon_Hacks]

cause its a useful tool for abstract metal sigs and for metal borders, (plus wasnt sure where else to post it so figured id post it here because this is what i use it for)



Ps
Heres an add on so it can be a "full sig "....
Step 4. create new layer repeat entire tut, turn 90 cw ,

Step 5 same as sep5 just turn ccw

step 6 same as step 4 just move it

step 7 All to overlay

Repeat all steps until you havea desired bg to a sig or a desired border

Not very tech looking, not very metal looking either XD
]Also badly written tut, doesn&#39;t ttell people how to make it their own, doesn&#39;t help people just tells them what to do.

And no screenies
