Tutorial:Shadow Effect of plants.
The other day i was simply playing around with PS and discovered this pretty cool trick.
Well nothing much actually.I am going to show how to make a shadow effect of plants from suns’ rays.
First of all prepare a plain document.
Use any simple vector brush depicting any plant like this.
1)Select the entire document .
2)Apply Filter Menu>>Distort>>Polar Coordinates (Polar to Rectangular)
[Optional:Apply a Filter>>Stylize>>Wind for a shimmer effect]
3)Apply Filter Menu>>Distort>>Polar Coordinates (Rectangular to Polar)
It looks like shadows are coming from the plant .Add a sun in the distance to make it look like rays are coming from horizon.You can use this technique to add rays from sun.
in the end I got something like this.
Later!
