distortion : freebies : photoshop tutorials : metal stamp

 

 

Open up the metal texture image that was created in an earlier tutorial (metal texture).
Click on the channels pallet and using the text tool and one of the symbol fonts (I used monotype sorts) type a symbol for your stamp.
Click back to your layers pallet and choose Filter > Render > Lighting Effect

The settings I used were:
  • Intensity - 35
  • Focus - 69
  • Gloss - 0
  • Material - 69
  • Exposure - 0
  • Ambience - 8
  • Texture Channel - Alpha 1 (#1)
  • White is high - Unchecked
  • Height - 28

Click OK
That's it... Try changing the brightness and contrast to get different effects
