Design a Halloween Pumpkin Patch Text Effect P.1

[anlocmedia]

Step 1

Create a new document (600X600px) and then create a new document called ‘background gradient’. Fill this layer with a radial gradient ranging from 241e3b to 071225.

Step 2

Create a new layer called ‘highlights’. Create a series of radial gradients over your canvas, (fc00ff to transparent, 00f6ff to transparent)
Then change this layer’s blend mode to ‘overlay’.


Step 3

Download this great image of a grassy landscape.
Paste it into the bottom of your image, and then apply a layer mask (layer>apply layer mask>reveal all).
Drag down a linear gradient ranging from black>transparent.


Step 4

Now apply a levels adjustment layer and hue/saturation adjustment layer.
I also reduced the opacity of my ‘highlights’ layer to 60%.
Levels Adjustment Layer
0 / 0.87 / 255
Hue/Saturation Adjustment Layer
Hue: 0
Saturation: -30
Lightness: -30


Step 5

Download this great stars brush set.
Apply various star brushes over your sky on a new layer called ‘stars’.
Then reduce your ‘stars’ layer opacity to 30%. Go to filter>sharpen>sharpen just to make your stars a little clearer.


Step 6

I downloaded this Cloud Photoshop Brush Set. Then I applied the brushes over my stars:

Step 7

Now download this moon brush set.
Apply one of the moon brushes to the top right of your canvas.
Then download this bat brush set. Apply the bats over your moon.
