Learn to create snakeskin leather boots using textures and paths with
Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.
Segments
See Bert's Cowboy Boot Billboard
Yet another piece of Bert's Times Square artwork is a billboard of cowboy boots. He gives a runthrough of the existing PSD file of this billboard, which include separate layer sets for the actual boots, the lights, and the billboard itself.
Create Cowboy Boots and Textures
Use Adobe Illustrator to draw the booth. Create individual paths for each element of the boot, including the shape of the boot and the embellishments. Select all the paths, copy, and paste in a new document. Name the paths "boot". Fill the paths with colors for the base, then apply a snakeskin texture made in Illustrator.
Apply Textures to Boot
Scale the snakeskin textures and rotate to fit the orientation of the boot. Blend the textures together with a soft brush and a layer mask. Adjust any colors so that the textures match, then clip the layer to the shape of the boot. Edit > Transform > Warp the texture and spread the edges to match the container Apply dodging and burning for highlight and shadow effects.

But mean this is what would talk about attention to detainees data they -- pixel perfect curve right there because the captain got a little curve to it.

But which slash pixel perfect and yes you do have to type in net WWW. We used his -- All right now let's get into what we're doing here now honesty right now. Is via the artwork for a billboard wanted to many little parts of out of the overall opening of a -- school there. There it is right there and just to show you what it's like in context. I go in here and you get my -- going here if I can see it. Bandwidth I got this one file here it is. And this -- right here shows. All the signs that are in the central part not a buildings aren't there yet the -- and I'll hold these as one -- and back here but not a buildings that are actually holding these signs of places are they yet. But you can see there's the -- right there. There's a side panel right here and then this from now most of the building breakthrough here is gonna hide this side panel or you're gonna see that little piece right through here. Right in there of this side panel everything else will be hidden now bears the Bobo with the lights in front and so. For now. It's -- for now there's the billboard. Now when you look at the the actual billboard you'll see that. There's the billboard. See how much smaller it is. So I do work larger that we get all the detail that I could possibly get that when it shrinks down and gets distorted its going to be fairly clear. Hard to create it at this size right here much easier to create large and then when I scale it down distorted."
" It's gonna look nice and clean. That is -- here is just a one in the middle which is right here. Which is gonna be completely hidden right through it like that so I just want to see little tip the white Korea a fourth boot just a wonderful thing hat and stick it in there. Now without looking at the actual layers panel for these things we see that there's there's the lights. We've -- lights are for the billboard itself. -- so we'll go in and it -- topic is this guy right here so we've got via the little lights there is -- lights that appear right there. And the final sign. There it is and you did this -- negotiating and all that kind of stuff the darts or listings or edit in separate layers to the final piece. Now in creating the boot itself. And his parts the parts are all the different groups. Hated to see the -- that these have been already. Merged feeble one comp boot to -- you emerge in the original file where the actual boots were created. We're -- to do here right now is actually create a do is indicted for you guys to see how it was done. So now. Let's go in here and we can believe the file open in the background is no big thing -- to see if that that we could see the the the of the billboard. And we can see all this good stuff in place there and it's not gonna have to create The -- now witnesses start as usual it starts in illustrator."
" So. I'm gonna go in here and I'm gonna get my who illustrated documents analysts are showing down here. And illustrator there is all the path that make up the actual blue. Right so their individual paths. Is it -- stitching all of these little guys here. Is the body of the the bottom part which is witnessed Mexicans gonna go in this top part is where the black leather is gonna go with -- all that nice stitching and all the -- and so on on underneath. So I don't right now I'm gonna select all and ought to copy it is gonna go and -- say copy. I'm gonna go back into Photoshop. And I'm going to say new -- new document automatically gonna reflect the size. Of the elements that are currently in the clipboard. There created a certain size so it's figuring decided Photoshop when it comes up with. What's in the in the clipboard is gonna be via a document that's the size that I -- They know it's funny that argument about that size and give myself a little more rooms and forget this go to a full 600 up there. And a full 600 years -- where. The shape to work with click okay. And I'm going to pace. -- paste it adds paths. Because that's what I wanted I want my path they they are I -- my paths if the work path that would go in there and going to save that pat. -- and save it and we'll call it the boot. -- so we had that. Open that and I can start to create these shapes that I want -- to go in here and even myself with more reviews at the start getting on my -- little layers on here. Bring it down to the smallest size and they're gonna create. The first path right there my first that and this is going to be. The this makes an area. -- Diego snakes. So I wanna grab that particular path that path -- that you know if it goes up. It overlaps into the area of the leather as -- is gonna be behind it would be hidden by this anyway. Some gonna go there and other systems it's a nice call it what to say -- we'll give it a kind of orange color like that. That's great so it might happens is gonna say that it. Still that area in the -- I think the shape up here create another layer on top it is eleven call this leather. And I've got grave gonna get nice deep grave like about like that and go ahead and build that area with back -- And I'll get that -- going on there. Now down here we have to heal and the soul which should be behind all of them so you put a background here I'm great it's funny and call it. Bottom. And -- and I'm gonna get a really dark -- About it that and go ahead and fill that path down there. So now get the basic shapes going on is this little guy inside here is the little peace in here right so right there only to create a layer. Behind the bottom. But there was -- call he'll. Inside. And using black I'm gonna go ahead though that little area with a black and I got all these little things happening in there turn -- up past."
" Is the basic shape. Now. This snake skin that's the tough when we see it right here it's pretty involved snake skin. There's been a lot of time going in and creating mistakes didn't know. I could have but why that's the beauty of the computer is a lot of things in there that helping to create things especially of this was saved for client. And you have a deadline. You don't have time you know in the budget just calls for you to do something really quickly you don't have time to -- of things so -- programs and understand what's in there. You can find solutions to just about any problem the solution to this particular. Texture that we want. Is back in illustrator. And go back over -- those straighter. And -- and created big. Box. Let's -- right here wanna create this box. Now the box has no Phil -- anniversary here both got black."
" And does got a black right there. And I'm gonna fill it I'm gonna do that with something now in those -- here when I got my swatches. Panel over here -- the little drop down menu where it way down here it says opens watch library fit that there's a whole bunch of patterns that are. That are shipping with illustrated there already there for you so like this is a major you have these beaches and flowers and stuff like that and split down here to. Patterns that's the one I want -- patterns. Is nature and nature we have animals skins. So I'm gonna click on animal skins which load. Another panel right here which automatically put him into my swatches library and I have some cool looking patterns including this one right here. And that these are snakes and so I'm doing kind of ahead and build it with that -- is -- first makes it. Right there so now and create another box right over here. And this box I'm gonna throw -- that's neat skins -- I don't I would have two totally different stakes games. So. They can now -- found bound and but let's just say about it. These guys became part of our panel there so I have to -- is that what we're gonna select both of these. To select both of these these shapes. I think this guy and this guy and I go ahead and copy those. Tonight that copy."
" And I go back over to Photoshop. And right here in this very same file would create -- Well -- pays them. Now I don't have to create relate -- and -- it mattered because it limits economies from whip up top there on the same pace as pixels. Why because I have the color in illustrator or bringing it happens is gonna get the box the box like that night and being as smart object but. I have to go back it -- there any point do. A justice does pattern I just want to pat on the way it is -- has pixels that's what I mean but could go okay. And it's gonna come in here and paste that pattern right there it there's a pattern. I think enters it happens and I've got my basic patterns start happened -- on dissent here and we see the pattern now looking at the do do we have this. Sixth -- theory that there -- skills below now looking at the actual boots. And I relied on. Good -- Internet for that because I wasn't sure how these -- patted his look. So I -- the billboard. Good to see corners of it it was a Tony moron and it was cowboy boots I -- anymore website and it with thousands of boots that I could do as well. And notice that this particular pair with a snake skin snake skin had large scales going into small -- I don't have. That pattern but but what I do have is to patterns one has large scales and one has. Small scale some I think the best of each time we're going I'm gonna grab this piece right here and read this the whole section right there. And I'm gonna say send it to a new layer and -- there be a cup. I -- come back over here and it just grab a nice big section like this and say a -- and grab it this way. I do like that and in this mistake you -- you later. -- An actor does and often I've got my two -- it so let's just see those those who live to turn off all Abu parts. Okay and -- Lou -- And I just got out of a pattern here so wanted to do now than when it transformed these patterns second start to really play with them. I don't here I'm gonna take that large a scale and let it do a nice little scale line. It really day. I like that and it's fairly good spirit and I need that's okay in the work and gonna go ahead and rotated. Rotate this one out like that then script. Now that these little scales the little guys down there. And just gonna bring them down into this area and has put the fun of the other guy right here is that it just -- into that area give me all this nice little texture down below. So now. When I'm going to do it on a blend these guys who you close together and we get a little closer here and give that -- on a mask. And in that mask what I'm going to do it and I'm going there with a paintbrush. Has move this over here. And again I -- that rush is 35 that's good. And he's gonna start paying him -- here into the mask and that mask with black and respect the pain in and when -- out of the Senate that. Affect the pain and just to soften those two guys up at any kind of mixed together state red in there and on a kind of blend eastern city all become this one. Kind of continuous texture. That looks good -- emerged that down. -- down. They became one Dextre and I don't go in there -- a polarized so go to my adjustments. Hue saturation. And -- color rises color rises to one color. And I'm gonna bring an end to these aren't you colors bring up the saturation a bit. They have a nice strong color like that click okay and here's my basic. Snakes can that I want for the bit. So now. Here is that part of the boot that I wanna put that on to something to bring it down here above it right there like that and -- don't go ahead and clip it. Option click in between those -- so it's clipped inside there. Alternate PC and now I'm gonna go in there and what it's time going there as they work. -- grabbed his material and start spreading it along the edges of my AM. Not a snake here."
" will handle it's is and -- there. And -- and hard to see these things. Bring this guy down. In the sky over bring this whole section and and it's -- down here. And we're starting to get all other textures happening. And requires a little. Taking the time to get it is right. And going here and let's start bringing that popped texture and so it's a live closer to our whole over overall scene here. -- ago. And start getting -- textures in there just like that."
" The -- we haven't exactly where you want it make it happen and see how it's held in -- and how to bring back the other part of leather. I'd go to start any some nice features to it with a little dodging and burning thing going here and say. Of go and -- start maybe darken it a little bit here darken this edge here which we also want to do to that -- Might wanna do that here it is going to darken that edge and darkened to hear. And docket along the bottom part radius of just going in there was dodging and burning and getting a little dimension to this -- to a dodging. And it has -- top there maybe little highlight food -- and highlight right in there and even adults sparkle but getting back dollar leather. A little -- to hear the highlight some -- burns and so on just to get all the Texas that we want right. We back out on the so there's some stuff look like that again and then we have the stitching. So no later on top in this whole thing here. I'm gonna go here and Ed the stitching that the me my final touch so we go in here and create a little stitch them in a circle. Like so. In the little black duplicated straight across like that and then go boxer between the two. Right between two like that. And that the get real close this hard to seize the -- is so small and a switch they're dependable tool and a connecting to those circles. Just like that okay so now. That. Becomes my brush. Define brush preset. Okay good to throw it away come back to our our boot. These select that and we got the impression. And is -- just reiterate there which right now looks like that so -- to do is gonna going to brush engine. And would give it the spacing. Space and so -- to become more like it states right there like that. Go to shape dynamics we're gonna turn -- pen pressure. There will be no sized get a but it will be and they'll be no languages except the I was gonna follow direction. Travel along that little shapes and now I'm gonna make a little smaller. I'm just thinking goes down to a size that I want and I grabbed those path all the path that it."
" Make up the stitching which is all these right in here. That is grabbing all these guys right through here all the paths I think they've got -- pretty close -- of these guys that here. Just that we haven't."
" And -- and another layer they go here as mice that flare and I go ahead and a black brush and I go ahead and stroke that path. With a black blacks which created all the little stitches and doing things which I can now click that with the boot itself. Says the US that is only see inside and I might even wanna go and give them a little. They're style a little bubble and the boss and out of -- boss just add that extra little dimension to -- up to this fishing. And out of my want to bring that down a bit. That's not so strong and that we see all those stitching and then finally god bless you had this disease in place to go in there and get your boot. And do some final touches to -- there so we can go in there and this to say we. Burn a couple of little areas in here and more in here and maybe some more there and so on and you can see how we start to create the basic boot. Not a with a lot of sets in there. But when I'm trying to emphasize here is just that. -- the going to see what's available below those little patterns the same thing in Photoshop there's all these patterns that are available all these Russia's that are not. Seem right when you open -- program they had been that you had accessed through them to them food panels to brush his panel gives you access to all these prices that are not visible right off the bat. Favorable patterns going there and look at all the stuff sealed the stuff that's available to all this stuff is gonna save you a lot of time in the long run. But here we just have two different patterns to create our own pattern based on the other two patterns that. Pat parts of what we needed or we need to do -- go and -- manipulated again that we want. Remember it's what you do and how you change colors and so on it's gonna make a difference in what it is they're trying to create.

And in that mask what I'm going to do it and I'm going there with a paintbrush. Has move this over here. And again I -- that rush is 35 that's good. And he's gonna start paying him -- here into the mask and that mask with black and respect the pain in and when -- out of the Senate that. Affect the pain and just to soften those two guys up at any kind of mixed together state red in there and on a kind of blend eastern city all become this one. Kind of continuous texture. That looks good -- emerged that down. -- down. They became one Dextre and I don't go in there -- a polarized so go to my adjustments. Hue saturation. And -- color rises color rises to one color. And I'm gonna bring an end to these aren't you colors bring up the saturation a bit. They have a nice strong color like that click okay and here's my basic. Snakes can that I want for the bit. So now. Here is that part of the boot that I wanna put that on to something to bring it down here above it right there like that and -- don't go ahead and clip it. Option click in between those -- so it's clipped inside there. Alternate PC and now I'm gonna go in there and what it's time going there as they work. -- grabbed his material and start spreading it along the edges of my AM. Not a snake here."
" will handle it's is and -- there. And -- and hard to see these things. Bring this guy down. In the sky over bring this whole section and and it's -- down here. And we're starting to get all other textures happening. And requires a little. Taking the time to get it is right. And going here and let's start bringing that popped texture and so it's a live closer to our whole over overall scene here. -- ago. And start getting -- textures in there just like that."
" The -- we haven't exactly where you want it make it happen and see how it's held in -- and how to bring back the other part of leather. I'd go to start any some nice features to it with a little dodging and burning thing going here and say. Of go and -- start maybe darken it a little bit here darken this edge here which we also want to do to that -- Might wanna do that here it is going to darken that edge and darkened to hear. And docket along the bottom part radius of just going in there was dodging and burning and getting a little dimension to this -- to a dodging. And it has -- top there maybe little highlight food -- and highlight right in there and even adults sparkle but getting back dollar leather. A little -- to hear the highlight some -- burns and so on just to get all the Texas that we want right. We back out on the so there's some stuff look like that again and then we have the stitching. So no later on top in this whole thing here. I'm gonna go here and Ed the stitching that the me my final touch so we go in here and create a little stitch them in a circle. Like so. In the little black duplicated straight across like that and then go boxer between the two. Right between two like that. And that the get real close this hard to seize the -- is so small and a switch they're dependable tool and a connecting to those circles. Just like that okay so now. That. Becomes my brush. Define brush preset. Okay good to throw it away come back to our our boot. These select that and we got the impression. And is -- just reiterate there which right now looks like that so -- to do is gonna going to brush engine. And would give it the spacing. Space and so -- to become more like it states right there like that. Go to shape dynamics we're gonna turn -- pen pressure. There will be no sized get a but it will be and they'll be no languages except the I was gonna follow direction. Travel along that little shapes and now I'm gonna make a little smaller. I'm just thinking goes down to a size that I want and I grabbed those path all the path that it."
" Make up the stitching which is all these right in here. That is grabbing all these guys right through here all the paths I think they've got -- pretty close -- of these guys that here. Just that we haven't."
" And -- and another layer they go here as mice that flare and I go ahead and a black brush and I go ahead and stroke that path. With a black blacks which created all the little stitches and doing things which I can now click that with the boot itself. Says the US that is only see inside and I might even wanna go and give them a little. They're style a little bubble and the boss and out of -- boss just add that extra little dimension to -- up to this fishing. And out of my want to bring that down a bit. That's not so strong and that we see all those stitching and then finally god bless you had this disease in place to go in there and get your boot. And do some final touches to -- there so we can go in there and this to say we. Burn a couple of little areas in here and more in here and maybe some more there and so on and you can see how we start to create the basic boot. Not a with a lot of sets in there. But when I'm trying to emphasize here is just that. -- the going to see what's available below those little patterns the same thing in Photoshop there's all these patterns that are available all these Russia's that are not. Seem right when you open -- program they had been that you had accessed through them to them food panels to brush his panel gives you access to all these prices that are not visible right off the bat. Favorable patterns going there and look at all the stuff sealed the stuff that's available to all this stuff is gonna save you a lot of time in the long run. But here we just have two different patterns to create our own pattern based on the other two patterns that. Pat parts of what we needed or we need to do -- go and -- manipulated again that we want. Remember it's what you do and how you change colors and so on it's gonna make a difference in what it is they're trying to create.
