Water Drops:
1. Pattern
Open up the file that you want to add water drops to.
2. Splotch
Make a new layer, and taking a Hard-edged Brush ( ),
paint on splotches where you want water drops to be. It doesn't matter
what color.
3. Fill Opacity
From the layers palette, select Blending Options ( ).
Adjust the Fill opacity so it's at 0. The picture should look just like
how we started now.
4. Drop Shadow
The rest of this tutorial will entirely be done in the blending mode
window, so you might as well keep it open. Go to Drop Shadow, and adjust
it like so:
5. Inner Shadow
Go on to inner shadow.
6. Inner Glow
Inner glow...
7. Bevel and Emboss
Finally....
Final Thoughts:
Be sure to use a hard edges brush, or else it won't work. The key factor
here is the Fill Opacity. The Fill option makes the real paint be transparent,
while layer effects still show. A round of applause for Fill...
Also, you can select the "New Style" button. And name it Water
Drops. Now, all you have to do is select Water Drops from the layer style
list, and skip all this hassle next time.
