Last year I wrote a tutorial called Incredibly Realistic Water Text in Cinema 4D and Photoshop where I created a text made out of water. I had to use Cinema 4D to create a 3D object then I imported this 3D file in Photoshop where I mixed with some stock photos. Now with Photoshop CS5 Extended and the Repoussé tool we can create 3D objects direct in Photoshop, so I decided to recreate that effect.
The wallpaper of this week is an image I created for a tutorial a few weeks ago to play and learn how to create some metalic buttons in Photoshop. I also used some textures and apply a chrome text effect.
For more information and to learn how to do this effect check out the Awesome Amp Controls in Photoshop tutorial.

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.
