| In this tutorial, we will learn to create a 3D cartoon wall. |
 |
| Lets start by creating this shape with the help of pen tool. If you want you can use Polygonal Lasso Tool. Fill it with #4A4952 color. |
 |
| Go to Filter>Noise>Add Noise... and give these settings. |
 |
| After applying Noise filter, your image should look like this :- |
 |
| Now, duplicate this layer by pressing Control+J. |
| Go to Filter>Artistic>Dry Brush... and give these settings |
 |
| Add 3 pixel wide #4A4952 coloe stroke in it. |
 |
| Change its layer style to 'Darken'. |
| Create another layer. As shown in the figure, use brush tool to draw some 'bricks' in the wall. |
 |
| Apply drop shadow (default) and Bevel and Emboss effect. Give these values. |
 |
| While the brick layer still active, use brush to draw some randome shapes. |
| Image after applying the effect. |
 |
| We will now create a 3D effect. For that, draw stones first. |
| Create a new layer. Name it stone. |
| Draw this shape and fill it with #95959A color. |
 |
| Add noise in it by going to Filter>Noise>Add Noise... Use the default settings. |
 |
| Select the portion with Polygonal Lasso tool and fill it with black. Press control+F to apply last used filter effect (noise filter) in it. |
 |
| Again select the upper portion of the layer. Fill it with #7D7978. Again press Control+F to apply noise filter. |
| Your image should look like this. |
 |
 |
| Select the portion of the wall layer. |
 |
| Press Shift+Control+N to create a new layer. Fill it with #99989D. Again press Control+F to apply noise filter in it. |
| Draw some black areas with the brush tool. |
 |
| Add stones we draw perviously. One portion of our wall is complete. |
 |
| Using same techniques described above, draw the second portion of the wall. (i.e. Dry brush filter, drawing bricks with brush tool etc.)
As you can see, the difference between these two walls is the color (Oh... yes, also the shape), but technique is the same. I have used #99989D color for filling the wall.
I have added the depth in cracked portion of the wall by filling it with the color, added noise in it and used brush tool (black colored brush with 40-55% opacity). |
 |
| Create another layer. Name it grass. |
| Set foreground color to #9AA00A and background to #9AA00A. |
 |
| Use the 'Dune Grass' brush with 36 point size to draw grass. |
 |
| Click on the wall layer to activate it. Press Shift+Control+} to bring the wall layer forward. Use high featherd eraser to erase the lower part of the wall. |
 |
| Click on the background layer. Select #D9D7CA as foreground color. |
| Use gradient tool (Foreground to background) to fill the the background. Our image is ready. |
