Using Photoshop.
First step: Creating the Opacity
- Open a 512x512 image, or save the UV Map which is the correct size: Here
- Make the background black, using the Paint Bucket Tool: Like this
- Create a new layer
- Put the text on the black background, nearer the bottom. Make the text white: Like this
- Save it.
Second Step: Creating the texture.
If you would like the text to be one colour, create a new layer, use the paint bucket tool, fill the layer with the colour, save, and upload into the texture section.
Alternatively:
- Duplicate the text layer (by pressing ctrl J)
- Click on Brush Tool (Or press B)
- Click on the area that the text is, it will say "This type layer must be rasterized before proceeding etc.., Click Ok.
- You can change the colour of the text by going to Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation
- Tick Colorize.
- Turn The Saturation Bar Up & the Lightness Bar Down.
- Now you can move the Hue bar to which ever colour you like: Like this
(You can also double click to layer to bring up more options for the style of the text).
Tick 'blending' for a smoother outline effect on create mode.
- Save the file.
- Upload the opacity & texture and your done :)
Final Result: Here!
Tip: Try on a few hairs to check that the sign doesn't overlap with it.
Good luck.
