Step 5:

Now it's time to add those crooked antennas homer recked trying to get better reception =).

Get the polygonal lasso tool and make a jagged line first, the shape that forms the antenna, then go way out with the selection to the right, then to the bottom, then click on the square where you began.

Make a new layer name it antenna, Press D on your keyboard to reset colors, alt+backspace to fill it with the foreground color black.

Then go to Select > Modify > contract, and use a 2px contract.
Hit OK, then hit delete on your keyboard. This will make the antenna almost right, delete the 2 parts at bottom and top with the tool of your choice.

Duplicate the antenna layer, flip this layer vertically (Edit > transform > Flip vertical) and move it to the right of the reciever like below:

Add 2 cirkels at the top of each antenna and your done with the antenna's!

Add 2 round shapes with the eliptical marquee tool like below:

No blending options needed for this one.
Add some lines with the penciltool, i used color black (#000000).

Step 8:

Set foreground color to: #993300

Now for the final parts we're going to make the feet, It's very easy with the polygonal lasso tool, just make a shape like below and add the blending options also shown below:

Duplicate the feet, flip it horizontally and move it to the right.

And your done! You could add some extra stuff tho but those are so easy that I won't have to explain! For example, take a big white brush, make a new layer above all layer, place the brush in the middle of the screen and click a couple of times, then delete the part that isn't in the screen.

I did the brushing and added an extra shine.
