Crescent Moon - Cut Glass
FM Tile Tools - Blend Emboss
AFS (IMPORT)
Guidance for this tutorial by Li Pereira
Very simple tutorial to do, but the challenge is to be able
to create beautiful graphics
and use the right shades, to get an effect close to or
similar to the model, or according to
its creation. I made two examples, a light and a dark;
in example 2 I created light color graphics to demonstrate
that it is possible
get good results also with light colors.
Tip: the secret is to choose blend modes and transparency
