Gear Yourself Up

 
This tut was written for those with a basic knowledge of psp.
I am using the awesome artwork of Arthur Crowe.

Supplies Needed
I used PSPX...but any of them should work.
Vix PSP: Mask, Templates and Wordart
Goodie Bag Sept HERE
Xero Filter- Radiance, Mistifier and Clarity (Optional)
EyeCandy Impact-Brush Metal
Font Rufa 
Drop Shadow usually V2 H2 50 5
Let's get started

*Remember to add your Drop Shadow as you go along*

Open template SeptGB01, duplicate and close the original, delete the credits.
Image, canvas size, 800 x 800
Fill with #ccbab7 and apply Vix mask GBS0902, delete, then new raster layer, fill with black, apply the mask again, then go to image, free rotate to the left by 25, resize to 96%.
 
Select the left small gear on template, float,defloat, paste the part of your tube you would like there, invert and delete. Apply Xero filter-Radiance and then mistifier.
Do the same with the small right gear with your tube and filters.
Select the large gear, paste your larger tube, invert and delete.
Apply xero filter-Porcelain.
 
Select the large gear frame, apply EyeCandy Impact-Brushed Metal-Hand brushed Steel, small brushes at default setting.
Select the wordart Gear fill, paste your closeup and adjust to your liking, invert and delete.
Apply the xero filter-Radiance and then Mistifier.
 
Apply the EyeCandy Impact-Brushed Metal to the Gear word outline, same settings as before.
Then take one of the wordarts of Vix grab bag, I used the
Beyond Imagination and resized it to 85% and placed at the top of the tag. Add a gradient glow with #74363a or color of choice.
Add this same gradient to the other wordart also.
Once happy with everything, merge visible and resize.
I then added the xero filter-Clarity to the merged tag.
 
Add your copyright and name and you are done.
 
Hope you enjoyed doing this tut.
