Hole in Metal by Val.©
 |
Above your background, create a new layer, name it HOLE, draw a hole with the selection tool and fill it with black. |
 |
Add a new layer; name it EDGE, fill it with black. Now get the selection of the HOLE layer. Inverse the selection (Select menu/Inverse) and draw the edges. |
 |
Fill it with white |
 |
Now with the aerograph tool, create the shadows inside the hole and on the edge.
|
 |
Use curves (Image menu/adjust) to highlight the white and give it more volume |
 |
Now colorize it with the Hue/Saturation panel (Image menu/adjust) |
 |
Here's how it should be now |
 |
Use the Crosshatch (Filters menu/Brush Strokes) to give it a more metallic aspect.
Important : this filter uses the selected colors in the Tools Menus
|
 |
Add a shadow (Layer menu/Effects) under the edges. |
 |
And there ya go. |
