hey, i've been trying to do some graphic design, and i need some help on this. i want it to have a clear film over it that looks like it's about 1/4 inch thick. i can't quite figure out how to do that.

help!

supra, is that what you mean? I just used the burn and dodge tools, and made the highlights with the airbrush and then blurred them... dont worry if you dont get it right the first time, its hard stuff ;)

here so you can see how simple it was... This one dosent look as good as the first one I showed because i didnt tweak it so much. but it only took me about 2 minutes...
