Like this? http://i41.tinypic.com/2gt1yxh.png I made this entire thing in about 45 mins from scratch, but if obv. you didn't want to paint a tree, design a newspaper, etc you could probably do it faster. To get the skew, I used the displacement map with a perfectly horizontal black/white gradient layer, then perspective distort, then rotate. For realism you'd have more variations with the gradient layer, and the pixellation would be solved if you had a bigger starting resolution. No 3D model. Hope that helped. ~ X
