Copy the image and paste in the document.

Go to Edit>Transform>Scale and resize it so it fits the

width of the M. With the Eraser Tool (E) delete some areas at the bottom of the photos. Also with the
Stamp Tool (S) paint the parts where you can see the glass, the idea is to hide the glass and leave just
the milk parts.

Step 10
With the Eraser Tool (E) erase the part of character M on the top right corner where the effect wasn't
looking really nice with the milk spalsh.

Step 11
For each character we will use a different photo, that way the effect will look more convincing. You
can use only one and just tweak it with the warp tool as well. The photo I used for the "I" can be
downloaded at http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-12058783-splash-in-a-milk-glass.html
Step 12
Paste the image in the photoshop document then with the Magic Wand Tool (W) select the black area
of the image and delete it. Go to Edit>Transform>Rotate. Also resize it so it fit with the width of the
"I"

Step 13
With the Rectangular Marquee Tool (M) delete the bottom part of the image where you could see the
glass, then select an area that is uniform and go to Edit>Transfor>Scale. Make the area much higher
like the image below and then with the Eraser Tool (E) use a very soft brush and delete the bottom of
the milk splahs until you have a very smooth transition. You can move down the whole splash a little
bit as well.
Step 14
Try to look for different images for each characters, for the L I used another photo from Shutterstock,
you can download it at http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-10532656-milk-splash-against-dark-
background.html. Then repeat the same thing we did for the other letters to match the image with the
text.
Step 15
For the K I used another image that you can find at http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-15459070-milk-
splash-on-a-blue-background.html.
The first thing to do is convert it to greyscale. Go to Image>Adjustment>Desaturate. After that go to
Image>Adjustment>Levels. Increase the Black Input until you have almost a black background, then
with the Magic Wand Tool (W) select and delete the background of the splash image. Go to
Edit>Transform>Scale and move it and resized it to match the width of the K, then with the Eraser
Tool (E) delete some areas of the splash like the image below. Tip: use the [ and ] to increase or
reduce the Eraser size, it's very important to delete the right areas to make the effect more
realistic. Try to follow the flow of the milk.
Step 16
Select the K and with the Eraser Tool (E) delete the top right corner of the letter.

Step 17
As we used different images and some of them had some color variations, such as the images over the
M and L. So to make them look more uniform go to Layer>New Adjustment Layer>Gradient Map.
Select the Reverse option and that will be enough to make the splashes look the same.

Step 18
To create the Depth of Field effect, just copy a part of one of those images that have quite a few drops
and paste in the document, in my case I used the top right corner of the image used in the step 15. Copy
and paste it in the document and again, go to Image>Adjustments>Desaturate, and
Image>Adjustments>Levels increasing the Black Input to make the background turn to black. After
that go to Edit>Transform>Scale and make it much bigger and go to Filter>Blur>Gaussian Blur. Use
15 for the amount.
Conclusion
Click on Control/Command + Alt + Shift + E to create a new layer with all the layers merged. Then
go again to Filter>Blur>Gaussian Blur. Use 10 pixels for the amount. After that change the Blend
Mode to Screen and the Opacity to 50%.
Also place your logo and the effect is practicaly done. You can add more splashes or try different
colors. The idea is basicaly to learn how to mix the milk splashes with the vector text and make them
look real. I hope you enjoyed the tutorial and let me know if you have suggestions for this or other
tutorials.
