First of all please remember that my first language is not English, don't flame me.



First I duplicated the image, Then I went to image>adjustments>desaturate. I set that same layer to soft light.I merged the layer, duplicated it again,set it to screen with these settings:


Then I duplicated the same layer and changed it to color burn with these settings:


Sharpened that same layer, then merged all the layers.

Then I used this light texture by ___fatalromance


set it to lighten and went toimage>adjustments>Brightness/contrastand I made it darker I also wanted to change the colors A little bit, so I went image>adjustments>hue/saturation and gave it these settings:


Then I applied the light texture again,Lighten,left it with the original colors and I made it darker again.

Got a new light texture by ___fatalromance:



set it to color burn.
image>adjustments>Brightness/contrast

and I merged it.
The icon should look like this now :


Time to add some brushes, I created new layers and used these brushes by ___fatalromance
