Lighting Effects Pack – 50 Free Brushes and Images 23

By jeya. Posted: February 3, 2010 at 1:39 am

This graphic design pack is filled with 50 different types of glowing light streaks. Available in two different formats, Photoshop Brushes and JPEG images. The images have full color intact as well as larger dimensions making them more versatile. The great thing about the brushes is they have a transparent background. You choose your format or download both of them.
As with all of our resources, personal and commercial use is welcomed and encouraged!

Mini Tutorial – How to Add Color to the Images

1. Open one of the images in Photoshop.
2. Create a New Layer and Fill it with a colorful gradient.
3. Change the layers blending mode to Overlay.

Mini Tutorial – Obtain Maximum Glow with PS Brushes

      Hey David. Have you loaded these brushes into your Photoshop Brushes Panel yet? All you have to do is use the Brush tool and click one time. Follow the mini tutorial above for an explanation on how to get more vibrant colors.
