I love that there's so many general use techniques in this. Not sure when I'll need to make a coin but this was 100% worth it just for the tools and shortcuts I never knew about :D

I'm glad you found the video useful, Haley! Thanks for Watching!

So many techniques in this video. Thanks!!

[@sajakmaharjan567]

Had never learnt how to properly use subtract and other function in shapes and had to rely on illustrator previously for quick output. Now I know how its done. Also didn't know about unchecking blend clip layers function, transform path again edit, and few others. This will help in my work a lot. Thank you very much. May be you can teach some more hidden tips like such. Todays video had many tips that you had not share before that often.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, Sajak! Have you seen his live stream? kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5DSg3d_qM-torc

You are by far the best teacher for soft soft . It's very complicated at first - overwhelming, actually - but, you make it doable for

[@ineedvicky]

Wow! I consider myself to be a Photoshop Wizard with 20+ years of using photoshop and you've successfully humbled me. I know it's always changing and developing, but it looks like I need to be spending much more time on your channel!

[@cktrading72]

Great Tutorial Jesus,more tutorial to come.Thanks

[@630designs]

Thank you so much for the great tutorial. I learned a lot. As soon as I saw coin I was like OHHH I'm going to make some Assassin's Creed coins after the game. I made a copper, silver, and gold one. I loved how they turned out. Thank you for the great tutorial.

[@V.Z.69]

What's cool is that this technique directly transfers to a 3D modeling technique when developing Materials for objects and using Nodes (like a layer of images to enhance the affects) to "texturize" the object. Embossing the coin would be "Apply a Normal's Node" and a "Bump Node". And scratches would be applying a "Roughness Node". So cool to see the correlation.

[@johnnydefetta3597]

Thank you so much

Glad to see that such wonderful tutorial for photoshop. I guess the above tutorial will took more than 72 hours to plan, scripting, recording, editing and uploading. There are very few channels who offered the unique tutorials, you are one among them. Learned lot of photoshop techniques in single tutorial and it will helps me to understand how effective the photoshoot features are and i miss to understand them longer period. Proud to be as ur subscriber and hatsoff your hardwork.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you, S Selvam! It did take a while doing all that you describe and more!

[@Kareemwilldream]

Fantastic tutorial. I followed along on Photoshop 2020, which did not have all the features in this vid (like masking in camera raw, and star angle), but it had most of what I needed. I fidled with one or 2 different settings by accident, and was able to get it done.

[@fabio0077]

Jesus!!! te escribo en español, que me resulta más fácil. Un hermoso trabajo. No tanto por la moneda en sí misma, sino porque haces ver decenas de técnicas diferentes que, sinceramente, no conocía. Como siempre, entre los mejores tutorials... GRACIAS, GRACIAS, GRACIAS!

[@taraaliyeva1813]

Thank you so much for this update

[@hugocosta7122]

I believe I am following your instructions to the letter, but at approx 16:06 of the video, after creating the circle on the inner ring, I am unable to drag to those crosshairs to the center. When I click and drag, the crosshairs along with a white box outline move to the center. When I release the drag, the entire black circle is is now in the center. Not like what I see in the video. What am I doing wrong?

[@Tazymandius]

... ... sigh... ... 22 years... 22 years I've been using photoshop... 22 years and this one video has taken me to school on several easy time-savers... Just goes to show that there's always something new to learn in photoshop... I nearly skipped it when it said it was for beginners glad I didn't! ... This must be what Tony Stark felt like in his basement workshop... god damn!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you, Taxymandius! I really appreciate your comment! I'm glad it was helpful!

[@somosbina]

hello, I have a question... is this design only for a digital view, or is it suitable for printing and it stays as you made it?

[@trendstrategics]

could you export this coin to make a "physical" coin to 3d print?
