Crazy Fire Tutorial

[pinklemonade]

If a picture is messed up, in the wrong place, not needed (in your opinion), or needed (is a step confusing?) then PM me and I'll fix it asap. Thanks.

Okay, I went over the picture limit again.... o___O

1) Make a new document, 400 x 400
2) Color the background black
3) Use any color you like, and change the brush to a 65 airbrush. Write HI.

4) Filter> Blur> Radial Blur with these settings: Amount: 100, Zoom, Best
5) Filter> Distort> Twirl, and twirl it 150

6) Filter> Distort> Ocean Ripple with these settings: Ripple Size: 9, Ripple Magnitude: 9

7) Filter> Distort> Wave with default settings, but click Square.

8) Filter> Distort> Polar Coordinates, Rectangular to Polar

9) Filter> Blur> Radial Blur with these settings: Amount: 100, Zoom, Best

10) Filter> Distort> Polar Coordinates, Rectangular to Polar

11) Usually theres a half that looks cooler than the other. I chose the half on the right.

Instructions for if you like the right half better:

12) Use the rectangular marquee tool to select the left half. Make it as perfect as you can.

13) Press delete. Press Ctrl+D to deselect the deleted part.
14) Press Ctrl+J to copy the layer.

15) Press Ctrl+T to free transform. Right click, and press Flip Horizontal.

It should look something like this:

.... Steps 12-15 were like, the same, but I split them up for maximum.... understanding. ><

And now you&#39;re done&#33; You can see the crack in between because I didn&#39;t delete the other half well, but if you delete it with ultra-perfectness, there won&#39;t be that black crack in the middle.

End result (I was too lazy to multi-color it... so it&#39;s all one color):

End Result

Add some text, a picture, mess around with the Hue/Saturation. It looks feathery.... kind of. Not really. I&#39;m just crazy. Hope you liked this tutorial ^^

It looks good for a bakcground in the center :P and it looks cool in red
Anyway i dont like the line in the middle -_-

[pinklemonade]

Yeah... the line in the middle is because of my crappy marquee-ing skills. Psh. But anyways, all you need to do it marquee it better, and brush over the crack and smudge the fire-ish part. So theres not this clear ass line. ><
