In this tutorial, i’ll show you how to a text that look like it was formed by cliffs of mountains.
| Start a new document about 800×300.
Reset your foreground and background color to black and white (Press “D”). Then go to Filter->Render->Clouds.
|
| Select the type tool and create your text. Make it fairly large, and position it towards the top.
|
| CTRL+CLICK the text layer to load the selection, then go to SELECT->Feather, and enter 3. Now hide the text layer.
|
| Set your foreground color to white and background to light grey. I used:#7E7E7E. Now create a new layer, then go to Filter->Render->Cloud. Then go to Layer->Image->Flatten Image. (if prompt for “Discard Hidden Layers” Click ok.)
|
| Now go to Image->Rotate Canvas->90CW. Then Filter->Stylize->Wind: Method: Wind. Direction: From the Right. Press CTRL+F about 7 times to reapply the wind filter. Then Image->Rotate Canvas->90CCW to turn the image back to normal viewing.
|
| Now Filter->Sharpen->Unsharp Mask. Amount: 500%. Radius: 2. Threshold: 0. Then Filter->Sharpen->Sharpen. Reapply twice..
|
| Now open the color balance box and play with the color sliders to get some nice colors.
