That site is a little screwy and I can't see the final image. Not to mention which his instructions are a bit....ummmm......hard to follow [:I I'll have to try later when I'm not at work.
Open a standard doc
Add a new layer
Set your circle to a fixed size in the toolbar.
Make a circular selection
Choose your Boolean in the toolbar (subtract)
Make a new circular selecion
Hlod down spacebar to move it (shift to lock movement to vertical/horizontal).
When your moon is as you fancy, release spacebar and shift
That's your moon selection.
Fill it as you fancy, or stroke it (edit>stroke)
Now hit Ctrl/Cmd+C then Ctrl/Cmd+V to copy the selection and paste it on a new layer.
Finally flip it (edit menu- and then nudge the layer with the arrow keys.
That gives you the two moon junction.
how you fill that in is another suestion. (ask Sherylin Fenn) [innocent]
What's wrong with that? If you can obtain such a result, I wonder why you ask these questions?
Perhaps it would be better to double the shadow-layer and add a more precise shadow?
Also: any translucent material would displace the underlying lines (refracting index). This detail would add to the realism.
But these remarks go beyond the scope of the tut you posted. So perhaps I don't understand what you mean with getting stuck when you get to it?????
it was the layout i was having troublewith putting stuf fin specific places etc. but i managed to sort it (after AGES of tweaking) just thought i'd share so ppl can refer incase they want to use the tut
It's good to see you have sorted it out yourself. That is the best way to learn.
Your result shows that you not only copied the tut, but that you did something very creative with it.
scorpion that looks just fine and I like the layout you did because with the tute you had to use a lot of your own imagination - so well done and thanks for showing us [righton]
