84 Another game layout

Hello my friends

Today i will show you how to create another game layout with an unusual shape. I will try to teach you as many methods i can.

This is the Tutorial Number 84 from our 100 Tutorial Marathon
Soon this marathon will end, and i will start another one. I will net tell you how many tutorial i will create in my future marathon

So let's start by creating a new document in photoshop
Size 760 x 770 pixels
Background color #333333

Zoom out your document to 50 %, then select Elipse tool, and start creating 3 shapes. I will use different colors for the shapes. You can use only one color.

Here is the first shape



this is the second one



And here is the third one



Now Apply the same layer styles for all the shapes
here are the settings for layer styles











here is my result



Now select rectangle tool , and make a simple rectangle
Use the following color #f63d05



Then drag the layer with this orange rectangle above the background layer



Select Elliptical marquee tool and make a big selection like in the following image



Then create another layer ( press CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+N ) and fill this selection with the Paint bucket tool
I will use the following color: #c22d00

Then drag the layer like in the following image, and reduce the opacity to 20 %



Select Ellipse Tool. Set your foreground color to #333333 and make a big shape like in the following image
please zoom out your document before you are making this step. 33 % should be fine



Now grab Rounded Rectangle tool ( set the radius to 10 pixels ) and make the following shapes



For this 3 rounded rectangles add the following layer style





This is the result



Now load the selection of the top left rectangle ( to load the selection first rasterize the layer , then go to Select > load selection



Select Rectangular Marquee Tool. be sure you have the following settings



Then make the following selection



After you release the left mouse button you will have the following result



Create a new layer ( press CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+N ) and with the paint bucket toll fill the selection with white then press CTRL+D to deselect



Then for this white shape add the following layer styles









This is my result



With the same technique do the same for the other 2 rounded rectangles



Now add alone some text



Now add with another font some text buttons



Select all this text with type tool and go to Layer > Type > Warp text...
And use the following settings



Now press on CTRL+T , and rotate all the text layer until you are happy



Then add a text logo, or any shape you have
the logo you can download from VIP area ( this one is a flatten image 0
