I decided to do a quick tut on how to make a glass cube. I just want to let you all know that there are many ways to create one. Like always, you have to think outside the box and use some of your own creativity.

I hope you find this tut easy to follow and useful.

(The texture I used here was what I used for my Crimson Orb.)

Here's the original image that I made:

You might need to make the cube a little lighter and then duplicate the layer for it to come out more.

Very creative, but the outcome isn't that nice. (no offense)

Signature pending.

Until then feel free to criticize my current signature by PMing me.

This is so cool Helen , I got messed up with the step after color balance so I took off on my own and came up with this . I think mine looks like there's a bird in flight :lol: at least it looks that way ..

@georgian: Thanks for your kind words. :)

@LJXD: I can't wait to see how yours will turn out because I expect different results for everyone.

Third try. The first two are not so good. And I haven't quite got the hang of highlights.

Thanks Helen. :) It took a few tries to get the gradient right, plus reading the instructions *carefully*.

I'm having lots of fun with tutorials, and learning a lot too.

Thank you so much for this tutorial!!!

I needed a prism for a project I am working on and your tut was just what I needed.
