omatase Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Can anyone tell me how to do this effect? I'm referring to the domed plastic looking effect. I spent about 2 or 3 hours yesterday trying to figure it out without any luck. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the-silent-9 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 i actually happen to be a huge fan of this effect myself. here- on whatever object you wwant to add a glare (a orb for example) take the tool selection (for a orb make it the circle selection) and place it however large, and whever you want the glare to be. then use your gradient tool with your primary colour set to full white, and your secondary to fully transparent, drag it down through the circle you made with the selection tool. then diselect and blur it a little. i (i know that wasnt realy good but if you can make some understanding out of it, then thats all you realy should need to know, or at least the basics.) Quote the lambda symbol is the scientific symbol of all things decaying over a rapid period of time. Or in a different subject, the photographers term of an object moveing so fast it blurs the picture puposefully. my deviant art/ my OLD sig tutorial my myspace... it has more photos then DA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
