Anyone with Photoshop Skills?

skylineaddict · Sep 27, 2009, 09:21 PM

I'm not very PS literate, and I really want a cool background for my desktop. I was wondering if any of you could do one for me?

Just in case you want a rough idea of what it should look like, this is it:

I kinda rushed to put this together, so it is not great at all.

Thanks in advance to whoever decides to do this for me.

Well there are a few ways you could do it, if you wanted to.

One way is the mono-out all the drawings so they're black and white and then use a very soft edge eraser to feather out the areas around each drawing. Or you can streamline through automation, like this: Create a Collage using Photoshop

Then use a new background layer that mimics the type of paper you have and you'll have a collage. You can then use the saturation tool to color each drawing or leave it black and white.

Here are some other tut's that might spark your interest.

It really depends on the feel you want. Do you want it to be old school, like the tattered drawings of davinci? Do you want it more modern, like a polished design firm showcasing concept drawings with all of the proof markings?

Just some tips if you wanted to take a stab at it and learn some cool photoshop skills in the process. Awesome drawings btw.
