Brushed Metal 1

[Brian Dowling]

This website illustration features the ‘Brushed Metal 1’ script.  In this particular case I made an admission ticket and replaced the script’s output with something akin to Roald Dahl’s Willy Wonka text for fun.  I made it in black on white  then merged the layers and ran it through the Brushed Metal 1 script choosing 1. Gold.  It was nice enough but I wanted more contrast so I pasted the black and white version back on top of the gold and ‘multiplied’ the layer to remove the white and darken the text for readability.  I then added it to my website size template and distorted the perspective so the right hand side was above the frame.

On the background I added a bar of chocolate (to add to the Willy Wonka look) made for another graphic.  Underneath that was a Chevron paper pattern distorted to recede a little into the distance.  I added Cass flares over the ticket for added sparkle.  As an experiment I added Gaussian blur to the background to help the ticket pop some more.

Additional scripts used: Admission Ticket #1, Chocolate, Chevrons 3;

Golden-Ticket-01 LB2-45

Brian that is simply brilliant!  no pun intended.  It’s very realistic and has so much detail.

Thank you for the kind words.  I think it could have all sorts of sentiments in other uses.
