OMG, absolutely fascinating…!! Loved this tutorial, learned so much from it — and can’t wait to dig into the PSD file to see all the nuts and bolts! I have watched many Photoshop tutorials over the years, and this is the first time I have ever felt prompted to actually leave a comment about one. Thank you sooooo much for your wonderful website and all the time you put into your fabulous tutorials — you are THE BEST!!
Thank you for that awesome comment, Jillster!
I was just wondering how you created the mouth, especially the back one. hope that makes sense
hello! great video i just have one problem every time i try to make the gradient overlay i cant see the white dot it just becomes orange … no matter how much i move it
Gunnar,
I’m not sure what part of the video you are referring to. Can you provide a screenshot or be a little more specific?
Thanks!
Great tutorial and still working on it…got as far as one eye. I too was not able to achieve the white area in the eye as you demonstrated. Where and how do I send you a screen shot? Please advise
You can send me a link to it from the Contact Us page if you like.
I’d love to do this in my classroom. Where do I download the files for this project? I did not see a link.
Thanks
Up above!
If you can’t see it, email me through the contact us page.
When I try to fill the eye with black after making a new layer pressing shift delete in Photoshop CC 2014 it comes up looking like the pumpkin this is the layer after doing all the inner glow patterns etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks in advance have a great day
I’m not sure I follow your question, maybe I can help if you share some screenshots with me.
Really enjoyed the tutorial. One thing to mention, when I started to follow along with the downloaded pumpkin it wasn’t long before what I was seeing was different than what I was seeing on the tutorial. I then realized that for a ‘Workspace’ you were in ‘3D’ and not in ‘Photography’. If you are wanting to replicate this on your own you need to go to Windows > Workspace > 3D, just be sure to change back to ‘Photography’ when done. Love the Jack-O-Lantern!!!
Thank you, Richard!
Yeah, if you’re not familiar with Ps then changing your workspace will be better for following along. Thanks for the comment!
My class loves this assignment, but are finding some parts a little difficult to follow. Would you be able to provide me with written directions?
Robyn, there’s no written instructions, unfortunately.
