Step 23 - Textures
Using Sanami276's resources again, pick one that has tiny particles everywhere like this one does to add to the surrounding of the streak of light.





Step 24 - Glitter Brush
Well, I'm still not happy with it. So this time we're going to do it manually. Take out the default soft brush and apply the following settings.




Step 25 - Effect
If you've been to Lost & Taken's Light Blurs download page (link above), you might have noticed this stock.


Step 26 - Scribble
Next, use a 1~3px Hard Brush with default settings and change your foreground color to White. I used 1px here. Brush freely with your mouse to fill up the spaces which seem to be rather blank. I positioned my mouse at 45 degrees and just brushed back and forth. Make sure that you brush each stroke fairly quickly to avoid squiggly lines. Then, set the layer to Normal 70%.
Step 27 - Pattern
Moving on, we'll be using a very basic and widely used yet useful pattern. Open a new file with the following settings.





Step 28 - Lighting
To complete the piece, we need to lighten up some parts for better contrast. First use a white soft brush with relatively small size and brush on a few dots like this, and set the layer to Soft Light 40%.

Elle, Glad you got value from the post. I think it's great too. And, I think people often unstmedeirate the curiosity and adventurous spirit in these age groups!

Some of these tutorials are extremely good, magazine like. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for the tutorial. It turned into my first photoshop project; took me a few hours and some frustration, especially at the beginning, but I feel I understand it much better now :) your directions were also very clear!
I really can't find the C4D craze from stinky666, can you maybe share the picture or a link to the picture?
