Light Speed





1.) Choose the Gradient Tool, and on the top menu choose ' Reflected Gradient ' and on the top left part of the menu, choose the ' Copper ' gradient. Also, change the Mode to difference!

2.) After that, make a few gradient stripes over your document, dont make them to thick! If its to thick, redo it by pressing Alt + Ctrl + Z. Keep doing this until you have something you like.


3.) Ctrl + U and change all the settings but Lightness to 0.


4.) Duplicate the layer, change the duplicated layer's blending into Overlay, you can do this in Blending Options by right clicking the layer.


5.) Once you have changed it to overlay, goto Edit -> Transform -> Horizontal. Keep doing this and try changing the Blending Options to screen, or overlay and you should have something you like. You can also goto Filter -> Distort -> Ripple and use the default settings.


6.) Once you are happy what you have, Ctrl + U and choose your color!
