by amp on May.22, 2010, under Photoshop, Pro Tips, Tutorials, Web Resources

Alec Baldwin

Got another one for you, this time it’s real quick.  A few simple steps and less than two minutes later you can have this wonderful drawing outline you can use to cheat in your art class.  This tutorial can make it extremely easy to trace or just use as sort of a stencil to color in, paint, etc.

Give it a shot and let’s see your results!

P.S.  If you want the original of Alec Baldwin from 30 rock that I used, follow this link to Google Images.

Special Note : To get a better view of the video, watch it directly on YouTube so you can select HD (720p).

No need to use 3D Editing programs to make perfect 3d spheres. You can use just photoshop. Also, no need to use that nasty bevel/emboss tool. =)

If you can’t distinguish what I am clicking on the video, watch it directly on YouTube.  You can set it in HD.
