A different way to get the chrome look (no gaussian blur & lighting effects), this way looks more like it's been airbrushed, start with a black layer |
|
Make a new layer and draw the shape you want in mid grey, works best on thin wavy shapes. |
|
Apply the artistic/plastic wrap filter |
|
Now goto curves and set them something like this |
|
You should end up with this |
|
Now apply the curves again to darken the edges using these approximate settings |
|
Looking pretty good already |
|
Just knock the contrast up to finish it off |
|
Thats it, decent shiny looking chrome without having to resort to using the airbrush |
