Make the Sony PSP

After 38 steps, your PSP will look like a real PSP :)

• Step 1 Very well... Open a new document and create a black circle on a new layer;

  

• Step 2 Move it to the left and select the Move-Tool and while holding ALT, keep pressing the ARROW RIGHT;
  When you're done, MERGE ALL LAYERS!

  

• Step 3 Cut 2 retangles of the shape - 1 of the top and 1 of the bottom;
  Then Duplicate the layer and hide the original;

  

• Step 4 On a new layer create a shape that is gonna be used as the shoulder-buttons;

  

• Step 5 While selecting this layer, cut this shape out of each corner of the shape;

  

• Step 6 Get out the original shape and press CTRL+I;

  

• Step 7 Just cut the lower right corner out of it;

  

• Step 8 On a new layer, create a shape that is gonna be the opening;

  

• Step 9 Use my Smoothning-Tutorial to make the shape smooth, then select it and cut with that selection a piece out of the white layer;

  

• Step 10 Select the lower left corner with a large circular selection around it and press CRL+X and CTRL+V and place it in the same place if needed;
  Then press CTRL+U and lower the lightness a little bit;

  

• Step 11 Back to the white layer, lower the opacity a little bit...

  

• Step 12 Then give the layer this Bevel and Emboss;

  

• Step 13 It should look like this:

  

• Step 14 Then, select the black shape and on a new layer ABOVE it, give it a gradient of the colors #181820 and #3E3D4F;

  

• Step 15 If you wanna go for a colored version of the PSP, go ahead, otherwise just press CTRL+SHIFT+U like me;

  

• Step 16 Now create a new document of 8px by 8px and draw a simple shape like this with the Pencil-Tool in black;

  

• Step 17 Add this Layer-style to it;
  Then go to Edit>Define Pattern and save your pattern;

  

• Step 18 Go back to your psp document and create a new layer above the black layer and make a line selection like me;

  

• Step 19 Go to Edit>Fill and fill it with the new pattern you just made!

  

• Step 20 Press CTRL+G, then lower the opactiy and then select 50% of the bottom and go to Select>Feather and choose 10px and after pressing OK, press DELETE;

  

• Step 21 Create 2 orbs with the black grey color and give them these layer-styles:

  

  

• Step 22 It should look like this:

  

• Step 23 With the same layer-styles, create 4 new orbs and place them on the right orb;

  

• Step 24 Add the shapes for the buttons;
  I got my shapes here!

  

• Step 25 Add the PSP-logo;

  

• Step 26 Add 4 dots with colored outer-glow;

  

• Step 27 Then with a pixel-font of your choice add the words and the icons, or just steal them of the original.
  I used the Pencil-Tool to draw them myself;

  

• Step 28 Then, create a new shape on a new layer;

  

• Step 29 Again, use the Smoothning-Tutorial;
  And give it the same style as the previous buttons;

  

• Step 30 Duplicate it 3 times and place the arrows on them;
  I used a basic shape that was in Photoshop;

  

• Step 31 Create a small white circle;

  

• Step 32 Give it these layer-styles;

  

  

  

• Step 33 Add the Playstation-logo and the SONY-logo;

  

• Step 34 Resize both and lower the opacity;

  

• Step 35 Get out the Rounded Retangle-Tool and set the radius for 5px;
  Draw a shape that is supposed to be the screen;

  

• Step 36 Give it these layer-styles;

  

  

• Step 37 Then is should look like this;

  

• Step 38 Then finally, you can add your screens, wether is is a game, or a movie.. go ahead ;)
