You never fail to amaze me! What a great career you must have – your “workroom” must be like your “playground”. Ah—–if all my days could be in the “magic land” of photoshop.

Nice one Corey.

tried it out just then, pretty nice tut. I increased the contrast on the clipped metal layer instead of adding a gradient and it matches the bevel/stroke pattern alot better.
