Glow Effect in Photoshop

In this tutorial, we're going to create some really sharp-looking glow effects using a combination of layer styles, the Pen Tool and Color Blending. The end effect is quite stunning and hopefully you'll pick up some tips you didn't know before.

Step 1:

As with pretty much every tutorial I've ever written, we begin with a radial gradient. This one is pretty harsh and goes from a reddish brown color to black. Here are the exact color codes:

create a furious pink panther poster

Everyone knows the pink panther! I sure love the old cartoons and remember this old VCR tape packed with episodes I used to watch as a kid, over and over again. Well, there were lots of episodes, so it wasn’t as obsessive as it sounds…

Anyway, I thought it was time to give the old feline a modern, furious twist, and so I createdthis T-shirt for Design by Humans, for which I would greatly appreciate your vote!

Apart from shamelessly promoting myself, I’m going to show you how to create a poster of this new and improved pink panther using some great online resources, from Bittbox and the Go Media Arsenal. You can use just about any version of Photoshop and will need to brush up your art skills for this poster with a pen tablet.

Creating ‘Broken Link’ Advanced Tutorial

Still reading? Excellent stuff. This tutorial is going to focus on design choices and a little bit of theory. There are literally thousands of tutorials online that cover keyboard shortcuts and clever ways to tweak your custom brushes but less cover the reasons why we’ve chosen to do what we do when we’re creating a piece of art, which is often more important than the process of how you got there (but don’t worry, there will be some of that too!). And we’ve even included a few custom brushes that you can download here.
