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.
Another week and another great wallpaper for you. This week is very special because it's a another fantastic design created by Guilherme Marconi, this time however he designed the wallpaper with the user needs in mind, it's darker and with less elements, simply perfect.
For more information about Marconi's work, visit his new website with an updated portfolio and much more at http://marconi.nu
The book suggestion of this week is all about illustration and it's one of the books we check out when looking for inspiration. The book is called The Sourcebook of Contemporary Illustration. We highly recommend that you check it out.
