I think you might of got a gradient map wrong as it's a bit dark.

Nice outcome loving the render choice especially.

Nice tut, thanks for sharing :D

Hey soccermaniac maybe I can answer your questions.


Q: sry..im having trouble with smoke..it's not render so you want me to magic erase the backround ?
A: you dont have to magic erase the bg of the smoke layer, after you go to Image - Adjustments - Invert, then set that layer to Color dodge, and then Image - Adjustments - Desaturate, or whatever setting is in the tut. Then the bg of the smoke layer will be see thru
Q: and how do you invert the colors Ctrl-l, then this screen pops up with a chart?
A: to Invert the colors click Image at top of your photoshop screen, then click adjustments, then click Invert. Usually Ctrl I will do the trick, but thats how to do it if you can't.
Q: and for the ''color lights'' I pick a 100px brush with but what master diameter..?and why do your look so ''neon light'' like
A: the 100px brush will work just fine for the color lights, 100px is the diamater i believe. it should be a soft 100px tho. Another way to get the glowing neon light look is to do a 100px pencil circle with the color you are using, and go to Filter - Blur - Gaussian Blur set at 30. Then set that layer to color dodge and opacity around 40.

Good luck hope that helps you.

You just cleared some issues I wa shaving. Thanks for the informative share.

Nice tut. Here's my outcome.

http://img41.imageshack.us/img41/437...astarlight.jpg

The c4ds on the rigth side look like some kind of eye... but they're 2 diferent c4ds, its not a stock or render image.

Again thanks for the tut!

this is the second time i've tried this tut, my first outcome was bad so I tried it again.

the inspiration to it was that I never see anyone with a terminator sig and the new film looks AMAZING.

I also added a few extras that weren't in the tut eg. I duplicated the render and gave it some motion blur.

here is the outcome:

http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...y-o/cloud1.jpg

I opted not to use the black>white gradient, im cack with text and still not to sure about that thingie that is behind the text but overall im quite happy. Thanks for a really nice tut.

Woo I really like this tut :). I tried using my own render, but I couldn't really get anything going, so I used the one you provided. Here's my outcome.

http://i622.photobucket.com/albums/t...iswarhead2.jpg

Stardust, the end result isn't bad but your render is stretched; when re-sizing a render always drag from the corner and press the shift key so the render/stock doesn't stretch. :p

It worked for me inverting the smoke then just setting the "smoke" layer to screen.

Here is my outcome:

Dont like the BG in urs Zexi, and mario looks like he's been made smaller without keeping the measurements the same ration, aka holding shift while resizing. Also Text is really bad.
