Making blue seawater characters in PS text special effects tutorial

The water pattern characters in this tutorial are done by using layer styles. In the early stage, we need to find some marine related background materials and some water wave materials. When making, apply the water wave material to the text and then set the layer style.

Final effect

1. We first find a beautiful picture of marine material through the network, and then use the "horizontal text tool" to input text, and the color can be set at will, as shown in the figure. (The font used in this tutorial is AG_Cooper. )

2. Download a rippling material picture from the Internet and copy it into the picture. Then press Ctrl, click the thumbnail of the text layer, and load the text selection, as shown.

3. Press Ctrl+Shift+I to select reversely, and then press Delete to delete the selected content. The effect is shown in the figure.

4. Next, we mainly use the layer style function of photoshop. We need to set eight layer styles: inner shadow, outer glow, inner glow, inclined relief, outline, luster, color superposition and brush strokes.
