Thanx for reminding on those tools, they somehow slept of my mind
Shows what you can do using the warp tool. I think it is one of those Photoshop tools that doesn’t get used or talked about much. Many people don’t know when and why that tool should be used. It is a wonderful tool with a little imagination.
Love this. Thanks Corey!

Heya Corey
I’ve used the wrap tool before and it’s great for creating funky backgrounds. I think it works really well if you want a retro feel to your design work.
Thanks for sharing.

Hi, great effect but I see the path looks so complicated after using the tool, there is so many points !!
Is there a way to simplify the path without changing the overall shape ?
Thx

Great tutorial/idea. I’ve used the twirl tool before to just make some vector shape brushes, but never thought to use it against a silhouette of the sort! Good stuff, thank you!
