In this Photoshop tutorial we´ll work with brushes. Only in nine easy steps we´re creating a nice effect in layers of colors. There is many brushes around the internet that you can make great pictures of. Here we show you one way how to use them. Let’s dive in…
What We’re Making
Before we get started, let’s take a look at the image we’ll be creating.
Brushes Needed
Brushes that can be used in the tutorial.
Step 1
Create a new document, 1920px width 1200px height. Select the Gradient Tool (G). Foreground color #003c9a background color to #000000. Drag a Radial Gradient like the image below.
Step 2
Now use the Smudge Tool to smudge it like the image below.
Step 3
Select the Brush Tool (B). Set foreground color to #001850. Draw some abstract shapes. Remember that it is better to keep all shapes in separat layers, for easier customize.
Step 4
Repeat last step but use the color #032065 instead.
Step 5
One time more draw some shapes, use the color #ffffff.
Step 6
Merged all the white shaped layers into one individual layer, mark all white layers then hit Command + E.
Step 7
Copy the new white layer and drag it below the “real” white layer. Blur the layer Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur with 1 pixel radius. Change opacity of the layer to 50%.
Step 8
Last but not least we want to make the middle of the shapes shine. Use the Brush Tool (B) to draw a circle like the image below. Color #f0ff00. Then smudge it out.
Step 9
Change the layers Blend Mode to Saturation.
