Ice Text

Difficulty: Medium
Tutorial by: Ice (me)
Program: Photoshop

- - -

Step 1

Create a new document (Any size) and make the background black.



Step 2

Then create a new layer and type out whatever you want to make ice in white.



Step 3

Now Ctrl+Click the later so you make a selection and merge it with the background. Then go to Select > Inverse. Now go to Filter > Pixelate > Crystallize and set it to 7. Now you should have something like this.



Step 4

With the selection still ready, go to Select > Inverse and then go to Filter > Noise > Add Noise. Set it to Gaussian at 400%. Now you should have something like this.



Step 5

With the inside of the text still selected, go to Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur on a 2 pixel blur.



Step 6

Deselect the image and go to Image > Rotate Canvas > 90 degrees CW. Then go to Filter > Stylize > Wind and set it to "Wind From the Right". Now you should have something like this.



Step 7

Now rotate the image back to it's original state and hit Ctrl+U. Move the slider to a light blue.



Step 8

Now add a few touch ups and your done (I added a plastic wrap to the text to give it an icey feeling)



Enjoy!
