Photoshop Beam Tutorial: GB1

Still working on the Blue Lightning effect. BTW this was all done using a tablet.

i cant see any major differences between gb1 and gb2 beams!

what are those differences?

btw: nice tut!

Excellent! I’m gonna have to give this a go now! Will update at a later date!

This tut was amazing, thanks. I could do way better, but it’s not awful considering I’m using a glitchy as hell mouse that keeps jittering everywhere, instead of digging out my tablet. Gotta play with the colour settings on the lightning and tighting/clean it up a lot more. Next try I’ll dig that tablet out to get it right, I just wanted to see how well it actually turned out. Only took like half an hour.

I have a question…when it comes to the lightning bolts are using any particular kind of brush to acheive that effect and if so what size are they? Thanks for the help. I got the core down now i just the details

So this is what I got so far. Not to bad for a fist try. I still cant get the blue lightning to look right. Any suggestions?

I think it’d be fine if you didn’t blur it as much.

Thanks :slight_smile: Here is a second draft but im gonna keep working on the blue lightning

Here’s my proton stream. Thanks for the tutorial.
