if you have any questions please ask them :D....

Let me see what you made......

Pretty much ripped from the tutorial of that interface.

Cant see anything different from it, maybe the odd effect.

what tutorial?

if i knew there was one similar i wouldn't have posted it... sorry but that is all my own work....

Hey, when i go to use the color options, (crl+B) sometimes it doesnt work after id finish my difference clouds. Any suggestions?

Should work.
If not try colour balance.

Image>New Adjustment Layer>Colour Balance Layer

I got this. Rather than using the circle marquee tool, I used the lasso. Either way, it would look good.

TIP: When doing this, check the "preserve luminosity" box. This will help.

Dan

i like the tut!
I just couldn't contain my self from making this.... thing >_>

You could also just select the eraser tool and select any brush and start erasing....you could create some nice effect of Lava melting the metal instead

how do u do this part 6.we have finished that layer now, so create a new layer and put a linear gradient from one side to the other:

I made this with this tut. i liked the effect alot. great tut.

Just a thought: Using a mask instead of cutting/deleting/erasing might be a good idea too. You can work then with various brushes etc and easily correct everything :)

diden't get anywhere lol. when i press ctrl+b nothing happens (im on CS3)

Quite a nice outcome when using abstract brushes as erasers, though not too good looking in my opinion when using straight erase erasers...

Here's my outcome:

Doesn't look that good

My result.
