Create Awesome Music Wallpaper
July 13th, 2009 by ART-D Posted in Adobe Photoshop, Photo Editing
Cut out the objects, inserting them on the main picture. Their sizes must be changed with Free Transform option:

Put together the layers containing the objects (press Ctrl button to mark the layers firstly and then press CTRL+E).
Create a new layer which must be processed with the brushes, named Blood_brush_set_by_AnnFrost_stock. The brushes are of black color and we need to change the Opacity parameter several times to represent the ornaments of different opacity. This new layer should be situated lower than the rasterized layer of the objects.


The layer’s parameters: Blending mode-Hard mix

On the next new layer we’ll apply the brushes out of the set Blood_brush_set_by_AnnFrost_stock, having white color (the Opacity parameter can be changed on your wish). This layer will be placed under the rasterized layer of the objects.

The layer’s parameters: Blending mode-Overlay, Blending Options>Drop Shadow


Create a new layer again and apply here the brushes out of the set Blood_brush_set_by_AnnFrost_stock of the color #E03333 (the Opacity parameter may be changed again on your wish). This layer needs to be placed under the layer containing the objects.

The layer’s parameters: Blending mode-Color Burn

Next we’ll choose the Ellipse Tool (U) to represent an ellipse colored with #FF871B. This layer will be put again under the layer containing the objects.

The layer’s parameters: Blending mode-Color

Using the same tool, try to draw one more ellipse of white color and this layer will be placed also under the layer containing the objects.

The layer’s parameters: Blending mode-Overlay

Using the same tool (Ellipse Tool (U)), try to make the next ellipse element of the color #9B160F

The layer’s parameters: Fill 76%

Combine in a group all the layers composing those three ellipses (press Ctrl button to mark out the corresponding layers and then hold on the left mouse’s button when moving the marked layers on Create a new group selection) . Make a copy of the new group and choose Free Transform option to change the sizes of the group’s copy: The layer containing the second ellipse (of white color) needs the parameter Fill 88%.

Create a new layer using for it the brushes, named Foliage_VOL_2_brushes_set_by_solenero73. The brushes have the color #FCEABE and this layer will be placed under the layer containing the objects too.


Click on the bottom part of the layers’ panel on the selection Create new fill or adjustment layer>Black&White


Press Alt button and click between the layer with the Black&White effect and the rasterized layer of the objects (on the layers’ panel)

Awesome! I just don’t like that circle, one of the biggest next to the speaker on left side, seems it’s kind of flattened from left to right, you had to pull it up a little from the top so it might look like a perfect circle. but it’s nice, you’re creative… Congrats!
