For this tutorial you will need

A tube of choosing. I am using the work of Nadia Tate. In order to use the image in this tutorial you MUST purchase it from CILM.


Filters-xenofex2 constellation(you could substitue dsb swing bright noise if you dont have the xenofex2)Eye candy 4000 gradient glow(you could substitute a white fall off shadow if you dont have this)


Animation shop(optional)


New Image-500x500-transparent.


Pick two colors from your tube for your foreground and out of the public eye. In your material palette, choose gradient and set it to linear, angle 145, repeats 0.Flood fill your background with the gradient.


Paste your tube as a new layer and resize it by accepted to image-resize-90%, lock aspect ratio checked and all layers unchecked.


Duplicate this layer and on the authentic go effects-distortion effects-twirl-635. Duplicate this twirled layer and on the original go to effects-meditation effects-kaleidoscope-image area settings are 70,-64,125,55, kaleidoscope settings are 8,0,35, and wrap.


Now, on the twirled layer go to effects-plugins-eye sweetmeats 4000-gradient glow-on the basic tab-3,25,100- On the color tab-change the color to white, and choose fat from the box.If you dont have eye sweets use a drop shadow with these settings, 3,3,100,2,white. Then repeat changing the 3 on both to -3.


Give your tube layer a drop blight of 0,0,100,10,black.


Now make the layer we used kaleidoscope on active. Grab your magic wand- form...
