Level: Beginner Software: Photoshop

Create Retro Stars used in the 80's a lot!

Search your shapes database of Photoshop for this funny star;

Turn it a little bit to the left;

We're gonna use 3 colors.

Choose your colors first!

We are gonna use a light version, a normal version and a dark version of your color;

Make sure the star is white and start using the Polygonal Lasso-Tool;

Click on the point of one of the spikes of the star and drag it down HOLDING SHIFT!

Then fill it with the light color;

Do the same with the other spike, but then use the normal color;

Then again, but the light color; (NOTE: IF YOU LOOK AT MY IMAGES, I'M MAKING THE SELECTIONS BIGGER TO AVOID PROBLEMS)

And the last one must fit perfectly, and it must be filled with the dark color;

Do the same with a few other stars and you will have a nice image =)
