Ice Effect in Photoshop

Introduction to Ice Effect in Photoshop

Adobe Photoshop is a very huge and robust program that used to create image effects and edit the raw images with the most popular and used tools and functions. The program also has an effective filter gallery that is used to apply effects and create stunning water, fire, ice clouds, and more such effects. In this article, we will study how to create the ice effect in Adobe Photoshop. Although, the program is the most used program for creating effects. But, it does not have any specific effect or function that helps the user to create any specific effect. Effects are created using multiple functions on the same image in a sequential process to achieve the desired output.

How to Create an Ice Effect in Photoshop?

In this topic, we will learn and understand the basic procedure and techniques to create a realistic ice effect using any image. As discussed earlier the ice effect created on the software is not made using a single effect but it has been created using a group of filters and that too in a sequential manner.

Step 19: This is the final ice effect created on Adobe Photoshop. Similarly, we can create the Ice effect on any of the images and give it a realistic look by adjusting the setting of the effects used in the procedure of creating the ice effect.
