Glowing Neon Effects
August 8th, 2009 by ART-D Posted in Adobe Photoshop, Designing
Using the Free Transform option, it’s possible to turn over the copies the same way demonstrated below:
Click on the bottom part of the layers’ panel on each group containing by one line’s copies on Add a Mask selection and choose a standard brush of black color to erase the ends of the lines
Put together all the lines’ groups to have a rasterized layer (press Ctrl button, mark out the necessary layers and finally press CTRL+E). Next we’ll make a copy of the rasterized layer, applying on it Filter>Blur>Gaussian blur
Create a new layer and apply here a standard brush to paint the lines. The brush is of the color #4118F2 (Opacity 40%)
The layer’s parameters: Blending mode-Color
On the next layer we’ll use the same standard brush applied before with a different color this time - #BA00BA (Opacity 40%).
The layer’s parameters: Blending mode-Overlay
On the next new layer we’ll apply again the same standard brush with the color #E50101 (Opacity 40%).
The layer’s parameters: Blending mode-Color
Create a new layer and select here again the standard brush to paint the lines with the color #FFFD03
The layer’s parameters: Blending mode-Soft Light
Create a new layer and select the standard brush of white color. Change its diameter to represent several white dots on the lines of the ornament.
On the last stage we’ll create a new layer, using here the same standard brush of the color #FFFD03 (Opacity 15%) to give some volume to the lines.
The layer’s parameters: Blending mode-Overlay
The final result!

This is a cool effect but the tutorial is very badly worded. Can anyone explain this any better: Next we’ll represent (???) new layer (Create new layer) where we should apply a standard brush of white color (Diameter 2, Hardness 100%). Using the Direct Selection Tool (A), mark out the line and then change the tool with the Pen Tool (P) and make a right click on the marked line to select Stroke Path (Brush mode). This is what we have to do with each of the lines. ”
and this:
“Each layer of those 5 lines should be copied several times, changing by turn the Fill parameter. One copy should have Fill - 100%, the next one – 50% and so on, creating the volume effect. Place the copies’ layers on the file the way from below:”

That’s great but I don’t understand what the point of those rectangles at the top and bottom is. Are they necessary? Please tell me soon because I want to use this effect for one of my school assignments.

After this step:
“Create a new layer and apply here a standard brush to paint the lines. The brush is of the color #4118F2 (Opacity 40%)”
How does using the paint brush on the lines change it from White lines to Blue lines? I’m a bit confused. I think there’s a step missing.
