Tutorial in Basics, Designing, Drawing, Web

This is an efficient logo, with a clean and impressive that you will be able to use to create a Casino’s logo. In order to design int, we will use ((Elliptical Marquee Tool)), ((Shape Tool)) and a wide variety of ((Layer Styles)): ((Outer Glow)), ((Bevel and Emboss)), ((Gradient Overlay)), ((Stroke)), and ((Drop Shadow)).

Open a new document, 450×470px, and transparent background.

Fill it in with color #0B5F07.

For the next 4 steps it will be necessary that you use grids.

In order to place them you need to have the rules activated (Ctrl + R).

Click and hold the rule and drag it towards the center of the document; the grids will appear autoatically.

Place a vertical and a horizontal one.

Choose #11630E as the foreground color.

Select ((Elliptical Marquee Tool)), place the arrow where the grids cross and trace a selection with Alt + Shift pressed, so that itgrows proportionally from the center.

Create a ((New Layer)).

Fill in the selection with color #11630E.

Thace a circular selection as the one you see below.

Fill it in with color #1A6916.

Trace another circular selection, smaller than the other one.

Fill it in with color #1C7018.

Trace an even smaller circular selection.

Fill it in with color #1F781A.

Trace another (smaller) circular selection.

Fill it in with color #22841D.

Create a ((New Layer)).

Trace another circular selection and fill it in with.

Double click the layer to open ((Layer Styles)).

((Outer Glow)).

Accept the changes.
Create a ((New Layer)).

Draw a circular selection a little bit bigger than the one that appears before.

Create a ((New Layer))

Fill it in with white.

Double click the layer to open ((Layer Styles)).

((Gradient Overlay)). Use the following colors: #fff7ae, six times and #e2ba36, five times.

((Bevel and Emboss)).

((Drop Shadow)).

Create a ((New Layer)).

Choose #6e5500 as the foreground color.

Select ((Shape Tool)), choose the shape that appears pointed in the image below, and apply it like this::

Double click the layer to open ((Layer Stlyes)) and apply ((Bevel and Emboss)).

Accept the changes.

Create a ((New Layer)).

Select ((Shape Tool)) and choose the star.

Apply stars in the entire circle.

I recommend you to draw the star one time and then duplicate it by pressing Ctrl + J.

To the layer with all the stars, apply the same values of ((Bevel and Emboss)) that you used for the previous shape.

See the result.

Now select the font Clarendon Blk BT (very used in casinos) and write “7″. If you don’t have the font, you can download it from HERE.

Then go to ((Layer))-((Layer Style))-((Blending Options)).

((Bevel and Emboss)).

((Gradient Overlay)). Use these colors #560300 and #df0000.

((Stroke)). Now use these colors: #d1901c, #f6f960, #d1901c, #f6f960, and #f2c73a.

Accept the changes.

Duplicate the layer with the number “7″ two times (Ctrl + J) and with ((Free Transform)) (Ctrl + T) rotate them, and place them to the flanks of the original layer to get this result.
