Does anyone have a good trick for creating soft and realistic cast shadows for a magazine? Thanks!
Something like this ?
The left and right pages were created with the pen tool as shapes. The shape layer had drop shadow added at about 5%
A layer was clipped to each shape and brushed with a black soft brush a 0% hardness and opacity turned right down (5-10%). Blending mode is multiply
The additional layers layers marked "Left and Right Under" are just copies moved slightly to show extra edges.
If that is not what you want - let me know
