[Photoshop CS2] Cool multi-colored swirl background.

[Illusion]

Okay, since my first TUT didn't turn out to well (because someone had already made the same tut) i'm doing this tut.

1. Open up photoshop and make a new document (it turns out best if it's kinda rectangular (like 400x300 or 500x400).)

2. Fill the background with black, like this:

3. Go to "Filter > Render > Clouds".

4. You should get something like this:

5. Go to "Filter > Pixelate > Mezzotint".

6. You should have something like this:

7. Now go to "Filter > Blur > Radial Blur".

8. Set the settings like this:

9. You should have something like this:

10. Duplicate the layer.

11. Remove the visibility (the eye) from the second layer.

12. Click at the first layer.

13. Go to "Filter > Distort > Twirl".

14. Set the settings like this and click OK.

15. Now add the visibility (the eye) to the second layer and click on the layer.

16. Go to "Filter > Distort > Twirl".

17. Sett the settings like this:

18. Now change the blendin to "Lighten".

19. Now you should have something like this:

20. Click "CTRL + U" and tick the "Colorize" box, then change the "Hue" but do NOT change the "Saturation".

...part 3 in my next post!

The CTRL+U part doesn't work for me.

 

[DaOdin]

Sexy outcome. Nice tutorial! 10/10

 

[AxiumSnowe]

Yet again - the CTRL+U doesn't work for me. HALP.

@axiumsnowe:

If the CTRL+U don't work, go to:

Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation.




Thanks DaOdin

=.= say, why don't you link back to the source? The thing is, it's old, older than your mum.

 

[Illusion]

There aren't any source, i made this tut.

And yeah, i know it's old but not all the ppl knows this.

Hue and sat is a really bad way to do that IMO. Just set a gradient overlay.

 

[AxiumSnowe]

Pshh I changed the saturation in it anyway and it looks way better.

 

[ChewBecca]

im on a photoshop pc atm

edit:
here it is

i think ill mess around with it a bit more, see what outcomes i can get.
