		<description>I want to learn how to make it look like the actual deck, like the first picture in your final frame.  Can you offer a tut on that or how about a template?</description>

		<description>Why not use the appearance panel and use a horizontal linear gradient from 0% opaciity through to black on its own fill layer? By using two of these layers on the nose and tail (black towards the outside of the board) within the appearance panel you can add some depth to these crucial areas and make your design look a bit more photo realistic. Make each of these layers about 45% opaque and they will overlay the gfx. As for the shine, you could use a vertical gradient stacked in the appearance panel to get the desired effect. It&#039;s something I had to do myself for a similar design. 

Lovely use of free distort and a fantastic tut by the way, really enjoyed reading it!</description>

		<description>yes, the tutorial here is how to get the final image done with shadows/highlights, the image becoming a pretty realistic view of what the board might look like after production.</description>

i was able to accomplish a similar effect with the gradient, but i wonder if he is doing something else</description>
