Icon 61 (Subscription Folder) As we move through the rest of the folder icons, there are a few obscure icons left, one of which is the Subscription Folder icon. So I thought we would get it taken care of tonight. | ||
Step 1: We will start with by copying the web folder, and removing the globe and cord. |
Step 2: Now we are use a few circles and triangles to make a "sync" symbol. |
Step 3: Now using the Perspective tool, we lean the symbol against the folder. |
Step 4: Now with the contour tool we do a "poor mans bevel". See the contour video for more on this. |
Step 5: Once more using the contour tool we fade the inside of the symbol to a lighter green. |
Step 6: Now we quickly give the symbol a little gloss. |
Step 4: Now using our Reflection Techniques I give the symbol a reflection. |
Step 5: Now using our Shadow Techniques I give the symbol a shadow. |
Completed Icon Image. |
Tomorrow we will tackle the Printers folder, which will be a bit of work. So check in then. | ||
