Photoshop creates brilliant magic beams.

Brilliant Magic beam.

The tutorial introduces the production method of the simple magic scene. The focus is the rendering of the beam part, the production process: the first simple to create a darker texture background, and then use the brush and so on to make the beam part. Finally, the whole color can be rendered.
Final effect

1, find the brick wall material, preset for the pattern, and then fill the pattern (all in the editor to find) and then ctrl+t to make perspective effect, because to do the perspective effect so fill the graphics to be very large, I also tried a few times to get it done.

2, a new layer, in the selection of the ground with a gradient fill color can be determined but to show the simplicity of the point (layer mode-linear deepening) oneself can also try a few more models as long as the performance of the effect is good. Then ctrl+alt+shift+e stamped this layer. So the ground is done. Then we'll do the background.

3, with the gradient fill background color can be determined to try. I am opposed to the tutorial, I think the tutorial is a way to learn to think, each step of the necessity of their own to experience can also think that there is no other way to achieve this effect. This is the first step in the background. Put the cover layer above the background layer and add the mask to the top with a black brush to make it disappear.

 

4, the planet has nothing to say, go to download the brush to try it yourself.

5, we see the distant dusky actually that is near the castle, the combination of mountains and trees, because of the need for the atmosphere so I handled them very dark very vague so there is a distant feeling. I believe we all have a lot of ideas about how to deal with it.

I'm going to say my way: find the material you need, pick where you need it, and drag it in. Click on the layer to create a selection and then fill in the new layer black attention to the key place to put the drag that has been copied into the black layer of the above to perform the filter--stylized--illuminate the edge, Then use the selection-color range to select the high light portion of the tolerance of how much they do.

Then remove the layer back to the black layer and rub it with the eraser tool. Note: The opacity of the eraser is lowered more and more in the castle and the lower part of the mountain. The more months on the top. This creates a sense of illumination. Of course there is a better way I do not know that my ability is limited to this. Use this method to do the mountain, near the castle, and the trees and distant castle everyone should pay attention to the location of the distant castle. Well, the distant things also come out of the environmental effects are almost out.
