Adobe Photoshop has a wide range of possibilities for creative people who want to create something new and unusual. But it is often found that users do not know how to apply a specific function in this graphical environment. Surprisingly, the same object can be created in several ways, and not similar to each other. This will be conveniently illustrated by the example of the fire effect for Photoshop. It is commonly used when processing photographs and graphics.
Fire effect
This effect can be done in various styles and colors, all at the user's choice. Of course, you can draw a flame with ordinary geometric tools in conjunction with brushes, and then edit the fire itself. But why complicate an already complicated work process? Many users are familiar with the fact that Photoshop supports the ability to download and install brushes. There are special brushes with the effect of fire, which can be edited as a standard tool "Brush". Some people simply take ready-made fire samples and paste them into the image, editing them like a regular layer.
Effect brush
Ready-made brushes are freely available and can be downloaded freely. Specialized services provide a large library with various fonts. Most sites have an advanced search. Brushes are in .bat format - this should be considered when downloading from unverified sources.
Installation Order:
- Unzip the downloaded archive.
- Copy the brush to the font folder in the program directory.
- You need to run the program, select the "Brush" tool and call the context menu where the "Load Brush" item will be. In the new window, select the downloaded brushes and click "Download" again.
- A new brush appears at the very end of the list.
Now you need to select a new brush and set the necessary parameters and select the appropriate color. It is best to draw on a separate layer to make convenient adjustments in case of anything.
Copying images from the Internet
There are special images of the flame that can be inserted into the original document, roughly speaking, to engage in collage. The found and inserted image of the fire is corrected, the transformation of a new layer is applied, it is distorted, and so on. Using tools and functions, you can turn individual images into one, where they will be combined with each other. Sometimes an image is initially a smart object that can be rasterized for further editing.
