Step 14: Ctrl + E (Merge layers)

Note: You should have something that looks like this by now. you can choose to stop
here and skip to step 25.



Step 15: Ctrl + J (Duplicate layer) =P dont worry these are the last ones hehe

Step 16: Filter > Distort > Pinch

Settings: 50

Step 17: Ctrl + F (repeat) a couple of times (to even it out)

step 18: Set layer blending options to Darken

(Right click on the layer in the layers window and click Blending Options

you can choose to stop here and skip to step 25 or finish the rest of the tut.



step 23: Again set layer blending options to Darken

(Right click on the layer in the layers window and click Blending Options

then you will see General Blending, Blend mode: Normal, click on that

and scrolldown to Darken)

Step 24: Ctrl + E (Merge layers)

Step 25: Ctrl + U (Change Hue/Saturation) dont forget to select Colorize

Note: Most of the steps i repeated are there for the sake of randomness to make the effect different,
you can do the repeat as many times as you want or you can do it not at all to get
the desired effect. =P
