Well, here's a tutorial I made, very small, but I've had alot of people asking me on how to make, and clone a pipe.
Very simple, and easy.
This technique is great for repetetive textures for models, or PS creations.
So, follow these basics steps, and you'll have a repeted Pipe pattern.
1. Create a new layer, select a rectangle, in the size of the pipe, on which you want.
2.Fill it with a SOLID colour, Gray works best. No shading, just a solid colour.
3. Using dodge and burn, Darken the sides, and lighten the top parts, and the middle. Play around with it, untill you get what you want.
4. Hold ALT, and shift, and move it in a horizontal direction, and direction really, just not vertical, now it should of copied, and be in line with the origional. Do the same things a few times. Merge the layers down by hitting CTRL+E.
Grats, you've got a repetetive texture!
Use 4. for copying, and remember, to put two layers into one layer to save space, just hit CTRL+E.
