Master chief doesn't seem right with the text there.

Tv x GriM · 12-05-2006, 10:07 AM

master chief is in a pastellly-matte like texture, whereas the text has a reflection as if its on a shiny surface

i like the idea though, simplicity is always best!

the master chief is just 33% black, kind of like nahx. no textures or anything. just simple black and white.

1. type out text
2. copy layer, flip, and place underneath original text
3. layermask bottom text and do a lil gradient action to fade it out
4. with a soft black brush just paint a line between the text layers and blur it a bit.
5. place the b/w masterchief behind it all and set 33% opacity.

making the masterchief was simple enough. took a render, cut out the white background, selected the chief, feathered 2px, and filled black. shrunk it down to size.

nothing fancy, no crazy whacky filters or plugins, no special downloadable features or anything. simple stock photoshop. i just thought it was a nice sleek look.
