Shapes with Texture and Deformations

Pinching

 

For this portion of the tutorial we are going to pinch our circle. I am going to show you several versions of the what the pinch deformation can do to your image. You decide how far along you want to go with this because tastes do differ.

Circle Selection Expanded by 6

Pinch Bullet Go up to Image | Deformations | Pinch and set the Effect to 99% and then Click OK.

Pinch Bullet Your Circle should now look like this:

Pinched Once

Pinch Bullet I went ahead and Pinched the image two more times with the settings still set to 99% each time. I liked the way it looks like a star.

Pinched TwicePinched Three Times
