Background Help - Searching for ages...

Hi,
Please please, you geniuses out there. Please tell me how to get the type of effect as in the attachment. Or point me to this type of tutorial. I have searched high and low but no luck. I think this is one of the best backgroud effect. My ps skills are not enough to produce something like that.

Pls pls I need you help.

Thx,
Sergio

No idea bro, did you try searching at http://www.good-tutorials.com

You sure that is done in PS?

Well, Looking at the backgroud I should expect it can be done in ps. Or am I wrong?????

There's a plug-in, Sinedots II (freeware), that creates a similar effect.

Hey Sergio , Try Illustrator and use the gradient map tool...I did this in like two minutes...kinda close to what you want?!?

Hope this helps,
rooster

The shortest answer is doing...

i have never done this, but here is what i can give you...what i would do is play around with the pen tool. use different shades of blue. make sure you use lots of layers and blending modes. i also suggest that you sharpen up the edges with a little white and using a white to transparent gradient while selecting ur curves. finnaly select your curves to give it highlights and shadows (with the airbursh tool.) it is also possible that it was done in 3d studio max or maya, but dont let that stop you. almost anything can be done in photoshop with the right tricks. those are the best tips i can give you. good luck:p
