Well, shape burst is not the only option out there, as you can see several members of PsT (that sometimes visit PsG too) did find alternative solutions, although Phosphor did not tell us 'his' solution.

What I like in my solution (that is not valid, since there was no option to do a color fade whith the brush, I think when he posted his original challenge on Team Photoshop), to use a gradient map adjustment layer, is that it allows you to change the actual gradient applied.

still, no solution would allow you to change the path and have the gradient follow that change. Maybe until a future version of Photoshop arises with even more new tools.
