***********************

with all the supplies ready to go, let's get started.

open up the template and delete the copyright/info layer.

we are going to work our way up from the bottom to top layer.

add a new raster layer on top of Circle1.

on the Circle1 template layer, duplicate it and select all/float/defloat.

delete the duplicate template layer.

open paper05 from the kit and copy.

paste into selection on the new raster layer.

select none and hide the Circle1 template layer.

repeat the steps for the following layers and papers:

Circle2 and paper01

Rectangles and paper06

Strips and paper07

CenterCircle and paper02

now open up the circle frame/element11 from the kit and copy.

paste as a new layer on top of the CenterCircle/paper02 layer.

resize the frame by 60%.

apply the following inner bevel settings to the frame:

now open up the close up tube.

since the tube is on layers, you could select any layer and colorize it.

I used the following colors to recolorize:

RED - #a8231a

BLUE - #315394

after you have the tube colorized to your choosing, let's continue.

copy and paste (C/P) the close up tube as a new layer BELOW the frame and

above the CenterCircle/paper02 layer.

resize the tube by 70%.

position the tube to your choosing, use my tag for placement reference.

duplicate the CenterCircle template layer and select all/float/defloat/invert selection.

hit delete on the tube layer.

select none and delete the duplicate layer we just made.

now apply a cutout effect to the layers.

duplicate each layer and apply the following settings:

(SHADOW COLOR IS #000000)

Circle1

Circle2

Rectangles

CenterCircle

(SHADOW COLOR IS #000000)

Strips

change the blend mode for each cutout layer to OVERLAY.

now for the mask.

open paper6 from the kit and copy.

duplicate the background layer of the template and select all.

paste into selection on the duplicate layer and select none.

apply the mask at default settings.

right click on the mask layer to merge the mask group.

now add a new raster layer above the SEXY text layer.

duplicate the SEXY text layer and on the duplicate layer, select all/float/defloat.

delete the duplicate layer.

C/P paper6 into selection on the new raster layer.

select none and hide the text template layer.

apply the same cutout settings with 30.00 set for the blur.

change the blend mode to overlay.

now open the full body tube and C/P as a new layer on the very top.

resize the tube by 80%.

position it to your choosing.

now that all the basics are done, add any elements, text and tubes.

don't forget to add artist credit and license info.

when you're all done, go down to the background layer and select all.

image > crop to selection.

this gets rid of any extra stuff not visible on the canvas.

hide the background layer.

edit > copy special > copy merged.

paste as a new image and use your magic wand tool to select outside the tag.

invert selection and crop to selection.

that will get rid of any extra space that you don't need.

thanks for trying my tutorial! =)
