STEP ONE
|
|
Make your desired circle with the selection tool ( )
using 'circle' in the selection type of the tool options.
|
STEP TWO
|
|
Choose your foreground and background colors (I'm using
Light green-#80FF80 f/g and dark green-#002000 b/g. Select the flood fill tool ( ), and in the tool options
choose 'sunburst gradient' from the 'fill style'.
Now on the 'gradients' tab, make sure 'foreground-background' is selected, and move the gradients center so it resembles the image to the left.
|
STEP THREE
|
|
Fill in ya circle.. aint that nice.:)
|
STEP FOUR
|
|
Now, go to [layers]->[new adjustment layer]->[curves], and then
you can fiddle around with these setting to your liking - you can see what I used on the left. This helps create
a nice rounded 'ball' with light and shadow. (drag the settings box out of the way and watch your image change with
the settings. Press 'ok' when your happy.

STEP FIVE
|
|
Now its just a matter of [selections]->[select none],
[layers]->[merge]->[merge all(flatten)] and your finished.
