Plastic Wrap tutorial!

Hey BW.
Here's a quick Tute' I was able to throw together using those same two effects you were asking me about.
The only thing you'd need to do different, is at the very end, merge all your layers, make a copy of the entire image, and use the Plastci Wrap filter on the entire piece to get some of those little glows on a separate portion from the player.

thx nexx, id like to look at this too, but is there a reason that its really small on my computer. I feel like I should be able to enlarge it but i cant.

Damn Photobucket.
It looks as if it shrank the file size down or something.
It should be 600x2000 pixels and now it's only 260 pixels wide.
I'll get this corrected and put it on my own webspace.

There we go!
I just uploaded it to my own webspace so I didn't have to worry about Photobucket shrinking it down.
Keep in mind, I did this last night without cutting out the player, just so I could demonstrate this technique.
There are other ways, or steps to include here, but these are the basics steps I use. (Minus cutting out the player of course.)
Usually I will pre-cut the player from the backdrop because I'm a little anal retentive and a bit of a control freak if I can hlelp it.
