Create a Cigarette

Use this tutorial to add a cigarette without healthdamage :)

• Step 1 Open up a new document with a logo or a text in it on a seperate layer from the background;

  

• Step 2 Hide it and create with the Retangular Marquee-Tool a cigarette-shape and fill it with the colors white and brown;

  

• Step 3 Add these layer-styles to the whole cigarette;

  

  

• Step 4 It should look like this;

  

• Step 5 Select the cigarette and create a new layer;
  Select the reflected-gradient and make it "Black-Transparent-Black";

  

• Step 6 Lower the opacity of the gradient-layer;

  

• Step 7 Add some burn-marks with the pencil-tool on the same layer as the cigarette;

  

• Step 8 Here comes the tricky part: Copy the layer-style of the cigarette, merge all the cigarette-layers (gradient, burn-marks and the actual cigarette) together;
  Now paste the layer-style you copier earlier;

  

• Step 9 Make the logo/text visible again and position the cigarette;

  Note:NOTICE THE SHADOW MOVES "WITH YOU" WHEN YOU LAYER-STYLE INTACT!

  

• Step 10 Select the WHOLE logo or text without their possible layer-styles;

  

• Step 11 Grab the Polygonal Lasso-Tool and hold down ALT and cut the parts you want to keep visible out of the selection;

  

• Step 12 Press DELETE;

  

• Step 13 And you're done. You can add some smoke if you want...
