    How do I make a lit smoky background and these types of lines?

    Thanks for the input @IamSam ! Used your cloud technique and managed to find some streak brushes to get an updated PSD file:

    How do I make a lit smoky background and these types of lines?

    Hi all, I made an image in PSD a very, very long time ago so have lost the PSD file I used. I'd like to revisit it, but I'm having difficulty trying to determine how I can replicate the results. The image is below: Specifically, how would I get the smokey lit background? Also, would anyone...

    Thunder cloud dispersal effect (isolated)

    Thanks, there is one question..., well more your input. In the op, I provided the following image which shows a light-ish yellow thunder cloud: Using your technique, selecting the portion of the image that requires the yellow thunder cloud, changing the background's hue, merging and copying...

    Thunder cloud dispersal effect (isolated)

    Hello, As the thread title says, what's a good way to get an isolated thunder cloud dispersal? What I have right now is copying a portion of an image with thunder clouds, pasting that portion as a separate layer, adjusting the brightness/contrast, then using a brush tool to erase the straight...

    Making glow look more blended?

    Hi all, I'm trying to make an energy orb look more "blended", as opposed to looking like it has well defined edges. Does anyone have any suggestions on how this can be achieved? I'm using blending options, outer glow, and gaussian blur to try and achieve the intended effects, but it looks too...

    Turn off interpolation/anti-aliasing DURING transform/puppet warp?

    Thank you both for the replies! @thebestcpu : thanks for sharing that in-depth illustration. Even if the interpolation can't be turned off during transformations, this is still great material for learning more about the program. Thanks also for including an example file to go along with your...

    Turn off interpolation/anti-aliasing DURING transform/puppet warp?

    Hi all, Just a quick question. I've set Image Interpolation under Preferences > General, to "Nearest Neighbor". When I apply a puppet warp or transform warp, I get the results in nearest neighbor. However, when I'm actually doing the transformation, the image gets interpolated and doesn't...

    Removing colors in a sprite

    Thank you for your reply thebestcpu! I just realized that I can paste the color palette which includes the colors for removal, into the document, drag it to the top-left corner of the canvas (fixing the coordinates for magic wand) and then deleting each color in the palette one by one. Might be...

    Removing colors in a sprite

    Hi, I have a sprite with a transparent background and 10 to 20 colors. I'd like to remove 15 of those colors for several frames. I'm aware of how PS's batch processing works, but don't know what actions will allow PS to remove the colors I want. I'd normally use the magic wand to remove colors...

    Converting anti-alias image to raster (pixel art) form.

    Thanks thebestcpu. I will go through those options and see what results I can get by mixing them. Appreciate your input in this!

    Converting anti-alias image to raster (pixel art) form.

    Thanks thebestcpu. I tried your second approach. It looks better for sure, but in particular, the colors table you mentioned is something that caught my eye. It looks like there is an option in PS for indexing colors (Image > Mode > Indexed Color). After picking Local (Selective) and 39 colors...

    Converting anti-alias image to raster (pixel art) form.

    Thanks for your input thebestcpu! This is a good start, but I'm wondering if this can be done for the entire sprite/image instead of only the edges (apologies if I wasn't clear in the OP). I'm basically trying to see if the colors of a sprite that is anti-aliased can be aliased. The below...
