Final Product What You'll Be Creating

Photoshop is a fantastic app to use to manipulate photos but it is also a great app to use to illustrate still life objects. In today’s tutorial we revisit a written tutorial by Childesign and demonstrate how to create a semi-photo-realistic knife in Photoshop using vector drawing tools, layer styles, textures, and effects.

Here is a link to the written version of the tutorial Create a Knife in Photoshop

    great presentation of very nice techniques in an over all pleasant tone…two thumbs up for helpfulness!

    Nice tutorial man. Maybe too “verbose”, a little tedious to see all the shape corrections at the moment of doing a select with the pen tool. That parts could be cutted so the screencast could be shorter.
    Anyway, great job and great tips! Keep them coming!
    Cheers.

    Thanks very much for this great tutorial!

    I learned a lot from it, and had lots of fun.
    I actually tried to follow all these steps on a different design – a sword!

    It worked pretty nicely :)

    Not as great as the end result shown here, but I was fairly happy with it.
