I haven't had the chance to watch Captain America in the theaters yet, however, I've seen the poster all over San Francisco. Every time I see it I think to myself that would be awesome to create that shield in this Photoshop tutorial. This morning I woke up and decided that I would do that :)

I love some apps that recreate amplifiers with leather and those controllers. I have been thinking about doing a tutorial on that for quite long time, so today I decided to learn how to do that and then try to explain how I did it to you guys.
