This tutorial can be made in PI XL to PI 12
Skill level: Beginner
Additional files: A silhouette picture from the Dover Sampler
and a Pearl preset from Rosie Hardman, used with permission for this tutorial
Download the preset here
Save the presets to your Pi presets folder and import them to your Easy Palette. Save the Dover silhouette and open it in PI.





With the Magic Wand tool click on the white part, right click, invert, edit/trace edges (in PI XL selection marquee), leave at default, OK.

Change the Horizontal View to 3 D, border 4, depth 20 and fill with the pearl preset. I used pearl-2.



This picture has some nice details so open the Material box and click on Bump and navigate to the silhuette picture and open.


Open a new white canvas 200x260. With the path drawing tool draw an ellipse 170x230, Edit fill, color gradient tab #615FAE and #434279, like this. I used a preset, "dkdshaders/Royal Blue", you can find it here



Drag your cameo to the ellipse and right click, shadow with these settings.



Draw an outline ellipse around your blue oval, outline 3-4, 3D and fill with a nice gold from the EP. I used the Gold 5.


That was all. Hope you enjoyed the tutorial.
