I have a nice picture of a pipe now but I have been asked to make it wavey. I have no idea so I’m asking here. There is also text on the pipe.

Liquify perhaps?

Peter…

A few other ideas here…

1) Use the Shear filter to bend the pipe as needed.

2) Recreate the pipe by stroking a curved path with an appropriately sized brush. Take copy/paste/transform each end of the original pipe and use some layer masking to blend it in with the newly created pipe. You’ll probably need to add some noise and texturing to help give the pipe the illustion of reality as well as an inner bevel to give appropriate shading/depth.

3) Bend the pipe manually and take a new picture.

Filter > Distort > Polar coordinates would also be good for this.

Turns out he wants 1010 to be on the made up pipe but it needs to be diagnal; how do I do that? I’m moving it from one picture to another on a larger picture. I know corel draw does stuff like that but not using pictures.
