I am wanting to create a clear plastic bag (well almost clear!!) like the ones that are on the outside of an item you buy off the shelf. I cannot find any such tutorials. Can anyone point me in the direction of a tutorial that may help me.

Thanks

Nah!

Found a few things on the Adobe site but could not get them to work. Always helps to have instructions with the styles.

So I gave up and used the bevel and emboss instead.

1. Create mask or stroke of a bag, or import empty vector.
2. Use gray medium and gradients, plus mask some areas, illusion of
transparency.
3. make a layer on top for highlights with white and shadow areas and play with the layer opacity.
4. create refelctions by duplicating background areas and flipping on bag. lower layer opacity and play with mask gradients.
