To the left is our final rope with a little hue/saturation added to give it a hint of color. Step 14Ĭhoose a large soft black brush and paint the very end of the rope and notice it will fade smoothly into the coil. (cmd/ctrl+J) Step 11Īdd a layer mask by clicking the new layer mask icon in the layers palette. Show the pattern layer again and make a selection and copy it to a new layer just like we did before. Press ok and you will see a realistic loop of rope.ĭuplicate the layer 4 or 5 times and stack them as shown, we now have the coil. Press the little “f” in the layers palette to open the layer styles.Ĭhoose inner shadow. Move the bottom slider (shown) to the right to tone down the shadows. Te contrast between the black and white is too strong, lets tone it down a bit by choosing the levels control. Lets make it coil… filter>distort>polar coordinates and choose rectangular to polar. Position the rope near the center of the page Step 6 Hide the layer underneath by clicking on the eye icon. Press Cmd/ctrl+J to copy the selection to a new layer. Make a selection with the rectangular marquee tool. To give a more frayed look add some noise: filter>noise>add noise Step 4 (You may enlarge the pattern to fill more of the page if you wish.)

Personally I think I prefer the 800×600, but experiment with different sizes and see how you like the results.Ĭreate a new layer and choose filter>sketch>halftone pattern. Look at the 2 examples at the end of the tutorial, the variation was created on 800×600, notice that the angle is a little wider and less round. The size here is really important because it will determine the angle of the coil.
