Hey, nice tut, some of these soap bubbles look kinda flat in my opinion.
Everything else is great, thanks!

I am very new to photo shop so a friend was helping me with some tutorials and on this one we stumbled at the bubble. We went over it a few times but have not missed a step so we are not sure why they dont have the coloured look of your bubble?
