step 1 of 8
Started out by cutting out the various parts of the coin using the pen and marquee tool to make a selection
step 2 of 8
Instead of cutting all the parts out of the coin I drew shapes for the stars and the bars
step 3 of 8
Once all my shapes and cut-outs were ready I began adding the metal textures using Alien Skin plug-ins for Photoshop
step 4 of 8
More metal textures - this one is Chrome, part of Alien Skin Eye Candy plug-ins.
step 5 of 8
Once all my shapes and cut-outs were textured I made a selection out of all of them and cut out the holes for the coin back
step 6 of 8
Now I put all the shapes & cut-outs together (this is really step 5, sry)
step 7 of 8
Filter:Render:Lighting Effects
step 8 of 8
Shadows and reflection
