Preserved Topic: Metals (Page 1 of 1)

How in the world do you get consistanct nice metals? I'm trying to create some jewelry and it's not being nice.<P>Any books or tutorials? I've used several of the actions around on the various action boards but they never come out clean or give me the right look.

I've found that creating greyscale gradiants then applying 'curves' gives a nice silvery metallic effect. Sometimes I use 'variations' to add a hint of reflective color.
