    Hey guys! In this tutorial I am showing you a method used to create a liquid-like effect for you lettering work. As mentioned at the start of the video, this isn't the only way to create this kind of effect, this is just how I did it. The idea for this originated from when I saw a blog post tutorial showing you how to create a water effect, however, after following all of the steps, the end result didn't look too great and wasn't really what I was looking for, so, using different methods and techniques I have learnt over the years of using photoshop, I branched off about half way through the tutorial and started experimenting by myself to see if I could figure out a way to get the sort of effect I was striving for. I finally came up with a process I think works fairly well and gave me the result I was looking for.
    Hopefully this tutorial has taught you a thing or two that you didn't already know, and if you have any questions at all, just post a comment below and I will get back to you asap.
    As always, if you use this tutorial and post the results on social media, please feel free to tag me as I love seeing what you guys come up with!
    If you have any suggestions or requests for any tutorials, post them in the comments below.
    Take it easy guys!

    I'm 2 years late commenting but to anyone who may be interested - using this tutorial i discovered, to get a milky effect for your liquid (thicker, less reflective) use plaster instead of chrome from the filter gallery - works like a treat. thank you for this tutorial!

    Love the tutorial man! Only thing I don't understand why it happens is the texture part in the lighting effects. I get the same result but I don't understand why you get the 3D looking image when you set it too the gaussian blurred copy of the blue channel.
    Any other tips on how to get to understand the full scope of filters, blending modes and settings that ps offers or do you also browse youtube for hours looking at other man vids?

    Heads up: If you are working in 16-bit or 32-bit mode you won't have access to the filter gallery. To get around that problem you can make the layer a smart object, then double click to get into the smart object and make it 8-bit (image--> mode--> 8-bit) .... then after applying the effects you just hit the "save" button and it will be applied to the original document.

    • @moonchildfairy4766
      @moonchildfairy4766 Před rokem

      ik this is very late but in case anyone else is struggling with this and looking for an answer: the simplest way to do that is take your original lettering, either type it out again or duplicate the one you used to begin with, choose whatever colour you’d like your ‘liquid’ to be- if you’ve typed it again, simply change the colour as you would normally, if you’ve duplicated it, use the colour overly option in fx, make sure it’s properly lined up with your ‘liquid’ and it should be fine :) hopefully i’ve explained that alright!

    3- applying the same numbers in lighting room gives diff look than video >> play with the number of height under texture and number of color together
