1. Create a new blank document of 5 12px*5 12px in RGB mode with photoshop; Set two reference lines to locate the center of the canvas; Click the rounded rectangle tool (U), set the rounded radius to 10px, and then press Alt to draw a brown rounded rectangle from the center. This is the main part of the briefcase, so this layer is named "main".
Second, set the foreground color as # 8b493b and the background color as # 672907; Select the layer main grid layer (PS: only in this way can the next operation be carried out), hold down the ctrl key, click the layer to become the selection, and then execute the filter.

Third, add dermal texture to the rectangle. Download a leather picture, put it on the main layer, name it "Texture", adjust the size of the picture to be slightly larger than the "main" layer (PS: in order to see the lower layer conveniently, you can reduce the opacity of the texture layer first) (as shown in Figure A), add layer mask to the texture, and then press Ctrl to click on the main layer, the selection will be reversed and filled with black, and then set the blending mode of the texture layer to soft light,No. Re-execute the image.
adjust
The Levels command makes the layer brighter.
4. Select the "main" layer, double-click to bring up the "Layer Style" dialog box, add 3px strokes to the layer, and set the settings as shown in Figure 4a (PS: multiple is the superposition of positive films); Add an internal lighting effect, set as shown in figure 4b, and the final effect is shown in figure 4c.

5. Copy the layer "main" as the "master copy", clear all layer styles and resize, as shown in Figure 5a; Add an interior lighting style to the "Master Copy", see 5d for specific settings; At this point, the layer looks like a rigid boundary, and we can implement a filter.

6. Now, start making sewing thread for the briefcase. Create a new file, draw a small rounded rectangle with the rounded rectangle tool, and then edit it.
Define the brush preset, pop up the brush name dialog box, and name the brush "stitch", thus completing the addition of the brush. Click the brush tool to open the brush preset dialog box, find the brush you just added, and make the following settings (you can also set your own parameters according to the situation).
7. Create a new layer, set the foreground color to light yellow, then hold down Ctrl and click the "master copy" layer to appear a rounded rectangular selection, then click Path-Create Path (there is a rounded rectangular path on the path panel, which can be used in the next step), then click to stroke the path with a brush (the brush tool is the prerequisite for completing this step), and then remove the horizontal tangent lines on the left and right sides and use the rectangular box selection tool.

8. Create a new layer, select the brush tool, bring up the brush preset dialog box, adjust the angle to 90, and make the left and right sutures as above, then erase the upper and lower sutures with an eraser, and finish making the sutures. Combine the two layers and name them "stitching".
Nine, the current suture looks a bit flat and has no three-dimensional effect. Let's add a little layer style to it. Double-click the Stitch layer to pop up the layer style dialog box, and add bevel and relief effects. The setting is shown in fig. 9a. Add another projection effect (9b).

Ten, leather generally has a reflection, so we add a reflection to it. Create a new layer, draw a rounded rectangle under the briefcase with the rounded rectangle tool, fill it with light red #cea295, and name this layer "Environmental Reflection". Set the blending mode of the "Ambient Reflection" layer to a color filter with an opacity of 40%, and then execute the filter.

Gaussian blur with a radius of 3px, then press Q to enter the quick mask mode (at this time, the foreground color and background color will become black and white), then press G to select the gradient filling tool and pull out a gradient from top to bottom (10d); Press q again to exit the quick mask mode. At this time, you will see a rectangular selection, and then click "Add Vector Mask". Now you may need to adjust the opacity to 60% and then execute the filter.

Gaussian blur, radius 5px, now the reflection effect comes out.

Now let's draw a crack between the two pockets of the briefcase. Use the ellipse tool to draw a vertical ellipse in the briefcase and name it "Pocket". Then add a style to the crack to make it look more realistic. Double-click the Pocket layer to pop up the Layer Style dialog box, and add gradient overlay to the layer (11b); Add another bevel and relief style, see (11c) for specific settings; Add an external glow effect to the layer and set it to (1 1d).

12. Next, draw the cover of the briefcase. Draw the right side of the cover with the pen tool, adjust the shape and size yourself, copy this layer after adjustment, flip it horizontally, and merge the two layers and name it "flap".
Thirteen. Add a gradient overlay style (13a) to the Skin Flap layer; The cover should be made of the same material as the main body of the briefcase, so copy the texture layer and put it on the flip layer. In order to prevent the two textures from looking similar, you can flip the copied material layer vertically, and then make the copied material layer into the same shape as flap in the same way as before.

Add a little thickness to this cover. Copy the petal layer below and name it "petal thickness", and move the "petal thickness" layer down (how much can be grasped by yourself). Then adjust the gradient overlay effect of the "petal thickness" layer (14b); Add a projection effect (14c) to the "flip thickness" layer, but this projection is only projected on the briefcase, so we need to remove the redundant projection (it's a bit complicated here, the original tutorial didn't explain it in detail, and I probably didn't understand the meaning until I read the pictures in the original text repeatedly). First copy the "petal thickness" layer and name it "shadow of petal thickness", and put it after "petal thickness". Second, remove the projection effect of the "petal thickness" layer, create a new blank layer on top of the layer, name it "gradient fill of petal thickness", then fill the layer with the gradient settings below, and then right-click the layer "Create Clip Mask". Third, select the "Shadow of Skin Flap Thickness" layer, press the ctrl key, and click the "Main" layer to bring up the selection and add a vector mask. Even if this paragraph is finished, it may be a bit messy. Take your time.
15. Sew the cover of the briefcase. Hold down the ctrl key, click the "flap" layer to display the selection, and then execute Select-Modify-Shrink to shrink 6px (the specific value can also be mastered by yourself). Use this option to create a new path in the path panel and name it "Petal Needle". Then use the direct selection tool (a) to modify the path so that it protrudes from the top, because the suture line extends to the back.

Sixteen, this step is the same as the method of steps seven, eight and nine, and stitching is added to the cover of the briefcase. The effect is as follows.
17. Next, start to lock the briefcase. Set the foreground color to yellow, draw a rounded rectangle and put it under the "petal thickness" layer, named "lower plate". Add gold gradient overlay effect, shadow effect and stroke effect to the layer. The specific settings are as follows.
#p# Subtitle #e#
18. Copy the layer "Bottom Plate" and move it to all layers and name it "Top Plate". Then remove the area in the selection below (if your layer is a shape, you can hide the area you want to remove by subtracting it from the shape area and adjust it freely), open the layer style panel and deselect the opposite direction in the gradient overlay. Reduce the opacity of the projection to 30% and the opacity of the stroke to 50%. Copy the "lower plate" layer and name it "lock". Reduce the layer appropriately to reduce the opacity of strokes to 50%. The effect is shown in the figure.

The lock of the briefcase is connected to the box cover by a short rubber band. Use the ellipse tool to draw an ellipse under the "Upper Plate" layer and name it "Watch Band". First copy and paste the layer style of the "main" layer, and then make appropriate changes. The specific settings are shown in the figure.
20. Add sewing thread to the leather "strap" as before, but this time there is no need to rotate the sewing thread. The pattern of the layer can copy the pattern of the previous sewing thread, and the specific settings can be mastered by yourself. Now you have made a complete lock, move the whole lock to the center of the left pocket, copy another lock and move it to the center of the right pocket (note: the order of layers should be the same as that of the first lock). Now the two locks are finished. For ease of management, all layers of each lock can be linked.

2 1. Finally, let's make the handle of the briefcase. Draw two small metal buttons with the rectangle tool to add a yellow gradient overlay style to the layer. Then draw the leather for fixing the metal buckle with a rectangular tool. After painting, copy one and put it under another metal buckle. The effect is as follows.
22. Draw a rounded rectangular handle with a radius of 5px and place it under the metal buckle layer. Then ctrl+T freely transforms, right-clicks, selects the deformation of the layer, selects the sector, and the radian is 20 to adjust the shape to a radian shape.

Twenty-three, add a luster effect and an inner shadow effect to the handle. The specific settings are as follows.
The final effect:
