In this tutorial I will show you how to create a really cool effect. First, we will use basic filters to create a 3D text effect; then, we will blend some stock photos and textures to produce one hell of a wallpaper.
Step 1
The wallpaper of this week a super cool image created by Alex Varanese, a graphic designer and creative director from the bay area, San Francisco, USA. We have already featured Alex here on Abduzeedo, his work has a very stylish and retro feel.
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.
