Description
Hi everyone ^^So after many requests, I've finally done a tutorial! This tutorial shows you my way of doing auroras. I've tried to keep it as simple as possible, so I hope that this will help you.Β
Disclaimer: This is only my technique, and I am well aware that there may be better ways to create a similar effect. Also, since this is my very first tutorial there may be mistakes so please kindly point it out to me if it doesn't make sense.
Please fav/comment if you found it helpful! And don't hesitate to ask questions and I'll do my best to answer them!
This tutorial is for Photoshop CS5.

A aurora doesn't look like this I used to live near north pole and I saw alot of aurora so I can judge that it doesn't look like one I'm sorry I'm not saying that you are bad it looks beautiful but a aurora doesn't look like that.

Nice tutorial, thank you for sharing it!
It looks so easy, but I know it isn't. Especially the silhouettes.

Haha trust me it is easy! I think this is the simplest way to create them imo, and you can do whatever you want with the background, don't have to follow mine. ^^Β
