Very Easy Heroes Eclipse in Photoshop - Screencast

January 06, 2010 from abduzeedo's blog

If you've ever seen the show Heroes then you'll no doubt remember the stunning eclipse intro. It's only a few seconds long, but in my opinion it's one of the best intros on television, mainly due to its simplicity and its stunning design. In this tutorial, we learn how to recreate that solar eclipse image in a slightly retro style using nothing but photoshop.

This tutorial is part of the Screencast tutorials provided by Photoguides.net. Ash Davies will be doing some of Abduzeedo tutorials in video to help those that need more details and because he has a much better and beautiful english accent than I have.

In order to complete this tutorial, there is a grunge paper file you'll need to download, which is available for free to all Photo Guide members (but it is free to join). Just head over to http://photoguides.net/photoshopping-heroes-eclipse

Easy 3D Globe in Photoshop
 Easy 3D Globe in Photoshop
A few weeks ago a friend of mine wanted to know how to create a sort of 3D globe effect using Photoshop. I didn't know how to do that but I got really intrigued with that, so I decided to give it a try. I knew that the Spherize would work in this case but didn't know how. So in this tutorial I will show you how to create a nice 3D globe in Photoshop using basic tools and the Spherize filter. This whole tutorial won't take more than 30 minutes but the technique is really useful especially for icons and logos.
