Step by step instructions on how to create a shiny metal surface example.
Texture background:
- Draw a gray square
- Add a film grain filter (Filters -- Image Effects -- Film Grain)
- Edit the filter and rename it to BrushedMetal
- Set the frequency of the turbulence in the x-direction to 0,004 and in the y-direction to 1
- Edit the composite effect constant: set K1 to 0,33, set K2 to 0,7 and set K3 to 0,1
- Remove the stroke
Add some shine:
- Duplicate the square and remove the filter
- Add a gradient
- Make the gradient diagonal and add 4 stops
- The stops vary in lightness quite abruptly
