Since we released Abduzeedo's new design, we've received quite a few emails asking for a tutorial showing how to reproduce the our logo effect. Actually since the first time we used that effect, on the Sparkling Hot Girl in Photoshop tutorial, a lot of people have asked us how to do that effect. So in this very short tutorial we will show you how to do that in Photoshop.
Step 1
Create a new document, use the size you want, it doesn't matter. Then fill the background with a very dark gray, #111111.
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Bastien Allard, a graphic designer from Montbeliard, France. Bastien has some really cool works on his portfolio and sent this very nice black and white composition called Fancy Work.
For more information I highly recommend that you check out Bastien's portfolios at DeviantArt and Behance.
The book suggestion of this week is Illusive 2: Contemporary Illustration and Its Context. This book is really inspiring, there were some amazing illustrations and you can spend ours checking them out. Another amazing thing about this book is that you can always go back and there will always be something new.
