Ok onto the tut :)

Grab my template shift+D to duplicate then save the original in case you want to use it again :)

Click on raster 1 add a new layer and fill with a lightish colour from your tube, floodfill this layer and apply mask. Resize by 80% then deform till it fits to your liking.

Go to the inner layer selections ~select all~ Selection float ~ selections defloat selections~ modify expand by 2 add a new layer and flood fill with a darker colour from your tube, DO NOT deselect yet, delete the inner layer and duplicate the selected layer X2 so you have 3 layers still selected.
Go to the bottom selected layer and apply Eye candy 5 nature Ripples with these settings.

Selctions ~ invert delete. This will remove the excess on the filter.
Go to the middle layer click the random seed button and apply, again delete the excess, and do the same for the top layer, you should now have 3 layers with different settings of ripples. You may deselect now making sure u have deleted on each layer.
Click on the outer layer and add a drop shadow I used 5,5,50,5 black (cos this is my fav setting lol)

Add your tube and drop shadow as above.

Clcik onto the word layer and selections ~ select all ~selections~float ~ selections defloat, flood fill with a nice blue colour to match I used the same colour I had used to fill the inner layer. Add a drop shadow.

Add your name and (c) info.

It was out of my head and any similarities to other tuts is purely coincidental. Do not copy any part of this tut and claim it as your own as it isn’t it’s mine :)
