So I'm working on a CD (really just an EP) cover for my buddy. The name of the CD is Sex Bacon and he wants a condom wrapper on the front and he wants it to say Sex Bacon on the wrapper. I am having trouble making the text look like it's realistic and actually apart of the wrapper/ packaging.
Can anyone please point me in the right direction? I've tried changing the color modes, and numerous filters and liquifying (the closest)
try using textures to blend em
but i need the lettering to flow with the waves of the foil or wrapper.
Figured it out....

Lol. Life has been made so much easier with Youtube XD
Pshhh, Google brotha! Hahaha. Definitely getting the effect I was looking for. I'll post a finished product when I'm done
Sweet :) Can't wait to see it :D
So this is what I sent him for the first look over. I color matched the sheets to the wrapper, colorized the wrapper, did the Displace Filter to both text and the MusicMonsters... Ummm, and I added fill layer of black to darken the whole thing up some and erased the parts I didnt, along with some dodging and burning.

HAHA! XD Man, that's some real clever ideas :) I think it fits pretty good with the words "Sex Bacon" :D
Hahah, Thanks man. I hope he likes it. I designed the logo "YouandMe" and the little monster guy.
The logo text is just a free font, Bulat, that I changed the leading and kerning a bit to overlap. And the robot guy, I got that idea from a combo of a few others works on DeviantArt.com
Think I should lighten up the YouandMe? I think it would look better if it matched closer to the sheets to blend more.
You need to use Distorsion and bump maps. First turn condom in black and white, then save a PSD copy of it. Make sure to play with the levels so the blacks and whites are well visible. Then select your TEXT layer and go to filter > Distort > Displace and select the range 40x40 or less and then select the condom black and white PSD. And voila!
Lol, link to music?
facebook.com/youandme420
has links to some live recorded mixes on Youtube, and a SoundCloud link to some of the songs being released on this EP.
Thanks for the additional info +s9. I'll be sure to use this!
Yeah I noticed that the robot guy looked a bit familiar :) That's cool though :D
Familiar?
