How to make explosion in AdobePhotoshop?
In this tutorial, I will explain you how to make nice "explosion" effect in Photoshop. First, open new document, 200x200 pixels, RGB mode, 75 pixel/inch. Setup Foreground color to black, and Background color white. That you can do with simple click "D".
Now, activate Filters - Render - Clouds. You will get image like this:
After that, activate "Filters - Render - Difference Clouds". Apply Difference Clouds filter 3 times to image. That is easier to do with clicking Ctrl+F 3 times and your image will look like this:
We are getting to next step, and that's activating "Image - Adjustments - Levels". Simple Ctrl+L will open dialog-box, and there set to RGB, Input levels to 11 - 1,23 - 178, and Output levels to 0 - 255. Click OK.
Now, in your Photoshop, activate "Image - Adjustments - Invert". Shortcut for that is Ctrl+I. And after that you'll get something like this:
Go to "Filters - Stylize - Extrude " and set up:
Type - blocks
Size - 3 pixels
Depth - 52 - Level-based
Solid front faces.
Result should be this kind of picture:
Copy layer (Layer - Duplicate Layer). Activate new layer and Add a layer mask. Activate Gradient Tool, pick Black, White colors with Radial Gradient. Now, goto "Image - Adjustments - Hue/Saturation" (Ctrl+U), and in dialog-box adjust:
Check both, "Colorize" and "Preview".
Hue - 222
Saturation - 42
Lightness - 0.
Click OK and you'll see this image:
Merge both layers with "Layer - Flatten Image". Also, open "Filter - Blur - Radial Blur" and set to:
Amount - 10
Blur method - Zoom
Quality - Good.
This is next image you shall see then:
To change from blue color, just go to "Image - Adjustments - Invert", or click Ctrl+I and you will see :
And final step is "Image - Adjustments - Variations " where you shall click "More Yellow" and "More Red" few times. There you have preview so you can play with that until you get satisfied with final result. Here is mine final explosion image:
