Sparkling Hot Girl in PhotoshopListThumbs

Sparkling Hot Girl in Photoshop
I’ve seen some very nice images mixing photos with light effects and sparks. If you go to flickr in those Photoshop and Graphic Design groups you will see images with this effect. There’s a designer, I think he's Brazilian, who has some amazing designs using this style, his name is Leandro Demetrius and it’s really worth checking his work out.
Anyway, in this tutorial I will show you how to create an image using this technique. It basically mixes some techniques from tutorials like Magic Lighting Effect, Amazing Photoshop light effect in 10 Steps, and the latest Create the MSNBC header effect.
Step 1
Create a new document, mine is 800x600 pixels. After that double click on the background layer to open the Layer Style dialog box and add a Gradient Overaly. Select Radial for the Style and use a dark red to black for the colors

Step 2
Select a nice photo, in my case an amazingly hot girl from the 30 Color and Pattern Inspiration Bikinis post. Select the Pen Tool (P) and start creating a path with the shape of the woman. Later we will convert this path to selection to mask the girl.

Step 3
After you create a path with the shape of the woman, go to the Path palette, right next to the Layer Palette. You will see the path with the girl’s shape. Click on the dotted circle icon at the bottom of the box to create a selection from the path.

Step 4
Back to the Layer Palette, select the girl’s layer and then go to Selection>Refine Edge. This command will allow us to adjust the selection in real time with some nice settings like feather, smooth, contras, and others. Make some tests with a black background. When you have a good selection click ok. After that go to Layer>Layer Mask>Reveal Selection.

Step 5
Lets increase the contrast of our girl, go to Image>Settings>Brightness/Contrast. After that reduce the layer like the image below. Then add a bit of noise. Filter>Noise>Add Noise.

Step 6
Group the girl layer so it will be inside a folder on the Layer Palette. Select the Elliptical Marquee Tool (M), set the feather option to 30px and create a elliptical selection like the image below. Now select the Folder instead of the girl’s layer and after that go again to Layer>Layer Mask>Reveal Selection. We will add the mask to the folder and everything inside the folder.

Step 7
Double click on the girl’s layer to open the Layer Style box. Select Outer Glow. For the Blend Mode use Color Dodge and for the size set 35px. After that Duplicate this layer and go to Filter>Blur>Motion Blur. Use 43º for the Angle and 155 for distance. Make sure that the blurry layer is behind the normal layer.

Step 8
Create a layer, not inside the folder anymore. This layer has to be behind the girl. Then go to Filter>Render>Clouds. Change the Blend Mode to Color Dodge.

Step 9
Create another layer, behind the clouds’ layer. Now go to Filter>Render>Fibers... Use 13 for the variance and 4 for the Strength. After lets add another filter, this time Motion Blur, go to Filter>Blur>Motion Blur. The angle will 90º and for the distance use more than 300px like the image below.

Step 10
First rotate the layer. Then select Lasso Tool (L) set 30px for the feather and create a selection like I did. Then one more time go to Layer>Layer Mask>Reveal Selection. After that double click the layer to open the Layer Style box. In the Layer Style’s first screen set the Fill Opacity to 60%, then add a Gradient Overlay, use the rainbow colors.

Step 11
Here it’s all about brushes. But first create a new Folder in the Layer Palette and set the Blend Mode to Color Dodge. After that create the layers you want to be light inside of this folder and using white color. You can even add some different shapes and apply gaussian blur to create those rays of light.

Conclusion
This is one of those designs that looks a bit complicated when we see it at first. But when you start working on it, it turns out to be much easier than we thought. You can add different light colors, more or less sparks, or even explode some parts of her body. Well that’s another tutorial I will write about.

"Step 3
After you create a path with the shape of the woman, go to the Path palette, right next to the Layer Palette."
I can't find anywhere Path palette section OR Layer Palette. Where are those? Please help! :( I've looked everywhere but can't find them. :(
I'm using PS cs3.
Thank you if someone helps me out! It would really be appreciated! :)
i really enjoyed this tutorial, however, i can't get my brushes to do the beautiful things everyone else has figured out. I tried creating a new layer, and painting on that, but then it's on top of the image and looks awful. I can't figure out for the life of me what i'm doing wrong. If anyone could please help me figure it out, i'd really appreciate it.
its really a awesome tutorial....its really amazing
thanks dude.....!

Beautiful . Really enchanting. I'll love to see more tuts.
excellent tut..your one of the best designers ive seeen. amazing imagination..and for all those who had problems with steps 8 and 9..change the foreground and background colours back to black and white. and in step 9 fill the layer in with white..i think thats what he ment to write but forgot to add it in the tutorial..
Images don't show up anymore. Too bad=(
obrigado pelo tutorial, muito bom.
This is my first attempt at a Photoshop picture ever!
[IMG]http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m250/aragorn9211/EcstacyStock.png[/IMG]
Lovin' the tut! Thanks!
when i try to use clouds the whole screen get dark and when i chanche it to color dodge it wont help plis help me!
Here's my contribution.
This is a very easy tutorial to follow.
It came out way better than I thought it would.
Photoshop CS4 was used.
i believed this is a CS3 version. and for the brush settings, just check history palette and beside that you can find the brush, clone source, character, paragraph and layer composition menus. just click on the brush menu and you'll find the setting preferences on this tutorial.
:)
nice work. very clever use of Pen tool and rendering effects
I'm stuck on Step 10. What layer do you have to be on for the lasso tool? What layer do you have to be on for the rainbow effect? I can't get the image to change from the rotated white fibers image to the rainbow effect image.
Just do it
Muy buen tuto che,gracias, me re sirven tus tutos te dejo mi respeto y gracias por los tutos que haces para ayudar a la gente a progresar.
i´m not speakin english very good,i´m from argentina, nice tuto.thanks very much,
I love this awesome tutorial, thank you very much. Kisses. Maya
WOULD THERE BE A TUTORIAL JUST LIKE THIS ONE FOR GIMP????
wow... the girl's sweat is glowing!! =P
nice... this effect works very well trying to convey as a sexy theme. i bet with some tweaking it will also be great for the superhero / sports player theme.

Awesome tutorial, this is what i did with it
Tim Tebow by ~roundryan on deviantART
Colt McCoy Wallpaper by ~roundryan on deviantART
I just followed your tutorial and was completely amazed at the out come of it. I like to make wallpapers of different things such as people, animals and other stuff. I just got through doing a wallpaper using this as my guide and was stunned at how it turned out. Thank you so much for posting this!
ÔOpa, serah qe algueen pode me ajudaar, olha.. eu to com o Cs2, mais ele ta em portugues, se alguem pudesse me auxiliaar, nessa montageem muito legal, eu iria agradeceer muitoo.. Teento fazeer ela a muuito tempoo.. Brigaada, :)
AWESOME! Great Tutorial! Came out Great!
Step 11: Make sure you switch the radial blend mode to "MULTIPLY"
To NOOBS: Step 10 Rotate the layer using free transform (ctrl + t on a PC) then grab a corner and rotate it, hit enter when done.
And they don't have "Refine Selection" on CS2 or lower... but a lower feather number should do the trick.
The sample psd doesnt work....oh please fix it.. I always
encounter this problem in this website
OKAY THIS TUTORIAL WAS AWSOME I DID STEP BY STEP EVERYTHING WAS GOING PERFECT THEN WHEN IT CAME TO THE LAST PART WITH THE BRUSHES I GOT STUCK..CAN ANYONE HELP?
Hi yes, i was wonder why when i got to the part where it had to change colors in to a rainbow there was no rainbow effect?? it stayed the same. I really appreciate it if anyone could help me out.
i made 1 for my friend.... it looks almost the same, but she said it was very an amateur work....
but in my own thoughts it was cool.
How do i rotate the picture, without rotateing the girl?
Wouaaaa super tuto!!!
mais dommage je n'y arrive pas .
Quelqu'un aurait il la traduction en francais?
hafs6060@hotmail.com merci.
Can you make a video please?
I am new with Photoshop, and i dont understand how to use the Pen tool in step 2?

Hi Take a look in my creation in the photoshop:
http://img15.imageshack.us/img15/7871/efeitos5comtexto.jpg
Hello abduzeedo, I like your tuts and I just got my first Photoshop CS3 and so when I am trying to create a new document and then "double click on background layer to open layer style" I have been trying to figure out how in the world to do that! When I did that, it just tell me to create a new layer first then do Layer style. I can't just click on background layer to open layer style because it is already "locked" :/ I am a newbie with this Photoshop and every photoshop tut sites are confusing me!
Hi! Great tutorial, but I do not understand your last passage (step 11). Could you please be more specifically about "new folder" and how to use the brushes?
I'm not a noob about PS, and I try in different ways to reproduce your results, without satisfaction.
I hope in your answer. Greetings!
Really appreciate the tutorial !
made this wallpaper for my dad
Thank you that's exactly I was looking for,.. Super effect! Vitalia
Nuuss... adorei esse tuto!!!! Mas, não consegui completá-lo.
Poderia me responder se esse tutorial serve apenas para o CS3 ?
Outra coisa q eu queria saber é se vc tem um site de tutoriais como estes traduzidos???
Obrigado!!

SITE:
http://www.luanbest.deviantart.com/
incredible tutorial man. I love the site also.
I have a problem with step 10.
When I rotate the fiber layer it also rotates the gradient background. Also...when I use the lasso tool on step 10 it wont let me reveal the selection. What do I do?
all cool
Normally i have trouble following these kinds of tutorials, and my results don't come out looking anything like the example. But this one was right on it! Keep up the great work!
here's my sample output
this is my sample output.. hope people will like it...
This is what I came up with so far.

I think it's pretty decent, even though it was a hard picture to photoshop.
cheers
I can't get past step 8 I got the clouds but when I go to layer style and change the color blend to color dodge it doesn't have the same outcome as yours. It just turns my clouds blue can someone please tell me what i'm doing wrong. Im so envious of everyones outcome :(
Tracked back to from here: http://www.presidiacreative.com/the-10-absolute-best-tutorials-of-2008/
I have problems to understand the individual processes, because my English isnt good enough for this.
there is not a possibility somehow the procedures easier to explain?
I have the most problems at Step 6 should be there to create a new layer? because at STEP 7 dont comes the effect like your.
i hope you can understand my english :D
Getting better!

For those of you stuck at Step 9 with the Fibers error this is what you need to do since it was left out of the tut. You need to create a new layer and fill it with white. The error is coming up because there is nothing to render on a transparent image. So here is how the step should go create new layer (ctrl+shit+n) then fill it with white. Then go to Filter>Render>Fibers. Hope this helps!!!
Not perfect,but I tried!

I don't understand what you mean by "reduce the layer" in step 5...
immortalben
10/27/2008
Immortal read step 5 again,I think he means reduce the opacity ie make it more "see through" find this at the top left of your layer pallette
Hi all again I have been reading these posts and I will try to answer as many as possile.
michael 13/3/08 Abduzeedo do you add a color to the brush?
Because when i use it on the white layer, the brush strokes don't appear.
Self explanatory really,if you paint white on white do you think you'll see it? Me neither use a colour!
Anonymous 27/2/08
Hey great tutorial ^^
I was doing it and it was goin along great until I got to Step 9; When I go into Filter>Render and I don't seem to have a 'Fibers'
I don't know why... Urgh!
YOU HAVE TO USE CS3. If you are using CS3 you need to fill the layer with a colour. Photoshop can not do much with a blank layer as there is nothing there.

hi
i just started with photoshop cs 3 and i dont know how i can make step 2
can anyone help me please?
When you want any photo to edit off the web you need to right click your mouse and choose Save as... and please remember where the pic has been saved to.When you open Photoshop choose open,select your pic and it will appear in Photoshop (normally on a locked layer,see padlock),duplicate the layer to make it editable.
hahaha... just a trial
Thanks so much! I love this tut! =]

Could you please specify which version of Photoshop you are using in future so those of us who don't have the same version won't waste our time trying out a tutorial to find that we can't follow a step.

Can someone tell me if this tutorial can only be done with Photoshop CS 3 ?

hi, thx 4 that tut.
my work: http://de.netlogstatic.com//p/oo/036/167/36167539.jpg
I loved the tutorial. I haven't worked on an image that seemed like it would work with the circular fade using the eliptical tool. Here are my pieces.
This is my work :)

i dont get it..im stuck at step 4..
is this tut meant for cs3 only?
men your hot big up
Well, after spending 4 days trying this tutorial, i have learnt what the PEN tool does, i have learnt what a PATH is, i have learnt what a MASK is, i've learnt about LAYER STYLES, i've learnt about BRUSHES..
thank you!
this is my attempt at this tut

Excellent Effect, I congratulate them by the tutorial
At the end of it all... this was my creation.
I call it "Friend." :-)

That link doesn't work :(
I think the steps with the cloud up to the point where its blended in with the rainbow effects are a bit unclear.
Perhaps because you are a professional you may not have realised that you missed a few basic instructions. :-)
Or... maybe I just need to read again.
Thanks for the tutorial
Great tutorial.. Thanks!

Whats Hot in the Streets Right Now...

1st of all thx for this tutorial - but i think it would be better if it would have been explained much better. its just so short in detail, some parts are just missing, like where to choose the color, how to get to certain tools, i just got started but why in the world should i not be able to do this as well. would be nice of you to explain your tutorials in mor detail. thx though
1st of all, I would like to say thanks!!! Thanks for sharing this OMGAWESOME skill!! I've learn a lot from your tutorial! :)
HI I JUST WANTED TO KNOW IF U CAN MAKE ME A PICTURE
awesome tut....but mine came out a lil diff
Chk it.
First of all, forgive me for my terrible English, I was thus somewhat exaggerated, but it was not bad, I made some changes but maintained the central idea of the photo. I am still newcomer therefore was not same to a picture of abduzeedo, thank you for everything, kisses :*
Adorei mais não achei
refine edge!!
awesome tutorials. any hope on getting video tutorials in the future? some of the techniques are above average and I did get stuck on a few. Would make an awesome dvd series or youtube. thanks once again.
mr.sifuentes

Your tuts are one of a kind thanx for helping us new comers with great effects.

never mind, i used color burn instead of dodge ;-)
Abduzeedo do you add a color to the brush?
Because when i use it on the white layer, the brush strokes don't appear.
I did it! Thanks so much for this tut. You can find my example here:

Hi
if i wanted to put this on a differnet background with out loosing all the layer blending options how would i go about doing it?
Also is there a posibility that you could do a really quick tutorial on variations of the brushes as i have had some problems getting some different charecteristics into the burshes (The splattered glowing dots kind off thing).
Brilliant tutorial, i teach myself everything, from tutorials, and have become a bit of an advanced just from excellent tutorials like this one they really have helped me get good at photoshopping so much =D
Thanks a lot, Sam.
Just Used The Tut....AMAZING OUTCOME OMFG!!! Haha Thankz Man! :D
Fucken kewl O_O
Abigail, just fill the layer with white or black.....
thanks for the comments...
Whe I try to render fibers it tells me that I can't because the selected area is empty. Help? Please?
well first of all this is great, but i am kind of a beginner, actualy i am a beginner so i`m a bit confused with all of the new layers and the new folders. so if you can explain that or link a tutorial so i can learn it. the other things i managed to do :). thanks and its great again
Hey great tutorial ^^
I was doing it and it was goin along great until I got to Step 9; When I go into Filter>Render and I don't seem to have a 'Fibers'
I don't know why... Urgh!
Forgot to say:
