Watery Text
This is a great text style which really resembles water. In this tutorial, you will be using: 
- the text tool, 
- the paint brush tool, 
- the dilate function, 
- the blur more function, 
- the how wax coating function and 
- red/green/blue adjustment. 
Here is an example below. 
Step 1: 
Create a new image with white as your background set to 16 million colours. Enter some back text, preferably with a thick font. Keep the text selected. 
Step 2: 
Now select the "paint brush" tool and set it to: 
- Size: 50 
- Opacity: 100 
- Paper Texture" marble 
With white as your foreground colour, click and drag the paint brush over the text once. You should have an image like this. 
Step 3: 
Unselect the text by clicking "sections - select none". Now go to the "image" menu and select on "dilate" from the "other" option. This will increase the lighter areas of your text.
Step 4: 
Go back to the "image" menu and this time select "blur - blur more". 
Step 5: 
Now we can create the watery effect. Go to the "image" menu and select "hot wax coating" from the "other" option. This will create a liquid effect.
Step 6: 
All we have to do now is add some colour. Click on the "colours" menu and select "adjust - red/green/blue". You can use any colour you like but for this example, I used: 
- Red: 0% 
- Green: 20% 
- Blue: 100% 
Here is the final image. Remember that all colours are possible, just play around with the values.
