and here is a tutorial for an orange and
strawberry

Fruit Tutorial



Ok so here’s a easy tutorials using vectors and



And eye candy> bevel



And of course your own imaginations

An orange



Open a new 500x500 transparent image



And then with your foreground null and background an orange colour



I used #ee9730 create a circle using your ellipse tool set to circle and line width 2



Pull out a circle like so





Now using your pen tool right click on a node convert to path and now we need to



Add some nodes to shape our orange so with control key pushed in and using left mouse



Add two nodes near the bottom node on our circle like so when near the line a little +add will



Pop up click with left mouse and node will appear





Now click on your middle node and pull up just slightly






Now repeat these steps to add two nodes to the top of orange just slightly wider this time



And again pull down the middle node just slightly



now convert your layer to raster



Now use your magic wand to click the outside of the orange as we are going to add our shadowing



Using your airbrush with the following settings



Size 40, hardness 30, step 1, density 40, thickness 100, rotation 0, Opacity 20, blend mode normal, and rate 25



Choose a darker orange #e78411 add a new raster



Now use the airbrush to mark around the edge of your orange






Now choose a lighter orange #f1b267 and add a new raster



Add the lighter shading around the inner layer of the dark shading like so



Go back to your dark shading layer and add adjust>blur>Gaussian blur of 30



Then go to your light shading layer and add Gaussian blur of 35



Now you merge visible but do not deselect



Lets add our bevel I have used eye candy 5> bevel with the following settings

two images one for basic tab one for lighting tab before clicking ok




Deselect



Using your selection tool with ellipse pull out a small oval near top of orange for more shading



With your first colour #ee9730



Now using your lighten/darken brush with the following settings



Size 15, hardness 50, step 25, density 100, thickness 100, rotation 0, opacity 32, mode RGB



You need to darken toward back of the oval shape and lighten toward the front



With your pen tool freedraw, and line width two and your foreground colour your dark orange draw a small line near the oval to highlight it like so






That’s your basic orange... Now if you like can add a stick and leaf or two



Here we go



Using your pen tool with the following settings



Freedraw, Tracking 10, create on vector, straight line, width 15, anti-alias checked



Choose a foreground brown colour #86541a



Null background



Draw out a line



Convert to raster



If you have eyecandy>texture>wood can use that I used redwood



Otherwise use eyecandy>bevel with the following settings



For the leaf with foreground null and background green #5ece12



Using your pen tool again convert to path and shape the leaf



Add nodes as necessary till it is a shape you like



Convert to raster



Now to add the veins



Again using pen tool changing your width to about 3



And with your foreground a dark green # 50a913



Mark our some veins then convert to raster and



Adjust>blur>Gaussian blur 3

Well that's it...I hope you enjoy this tutorial..

the basic concept of this tutorial could be used for many different fruits it's all about

experimenting with shapes and vectors

hope you have fun

Hugs Michelle

Ok so here’s a quick
and easy tutorials using vectors and

bevel




And of course your
own imaginations

The time a Strawberry




Open a new 500x500
transparent image




And then with your
foreground null and background a Red colour




I used #f11533 create
a circle using your ellipse tool set to circle and line width 2




Pull out a circle







Now using your pen
tool right click on a node convert to path




Pull out the bottom
Node and slightly to the left







Convert layer to
raster




Now go to eye candy
bevel and use the following settings basic and lighting tabs




Now for the slightly
longer task of adding the seed




Using your ellipse
shape and black as your background colour




Draw out a little
shape




Continue to do this
all over the strawberry then convert to raster







Use eye candy bevel
again with the following settings basic and lighting tabs

Now for the leaves




Using your ellipse
tool




Using green #50a913




Draw out a small oval
shape




Use your pen tool and
convert to path and then shape your leaf




Once shaped convert
layer to raster





Duplicate layer twice
and then using deform tool move your shapes to form basic




Leaf pattern




Now go to 3d>
effects>inner bevel and use the following settings




Merge visible and
save




You’re done




Hope you enjoyed this
tutorial




And don’t forget to
have fun and experiment




Hugs Michelle
