Black & Bronze Frame

You will need Fantastic Machine's Paint engine for this tutorial

and this zip which contains the bronze fill and image I used

 

On with the tutorial

1. Open your image and shift D to copy. Close your original. Open your bronze fill and minimize.

2. With white set as your background colour, add a symmetrical border of 2, click with magic wand and fill with your bronze fill.

3. Invert and add a cutout using the following settings

4. Repeat the cutout using minus values

5. Change your background colour to black and add a symmetrical border of 3. Repeat steps 2 and 5 until you have 3 bronze filled borders.

6. With black as your background, add a symmetrical border of 15, click with magic wand and apply your paint engine plugin using the Ice Crystal setting (I've included it below in case you don't have it)

7. Apply the Ice crystal setting twice, then sharpen twice.

8. Repeat steps 2 and 5 again, then step 7.

9. Add a final white symmetrical border of 10, fill with bronze, then apply an inner bevel with the following settings

10. You can leave your image as is, or add a corner ding if you wish. That's it, easy huh!

I hope you enjoyed doing this tutorial as much as I enjoyed writing it
