How to Create Laser Beam on Body


How to Create Laser Beam on Body

In this tutorial I will teach u how to create amazing laser beam based on illuminating effect and how to put it on the people body.

Get started by finding a suitable photo to work with. For this you’ll want to use Google Images or feel free to use my picture of young woman. Open up the picture and start the tutorial. I would like to add some cold blue hue to the picture. For this you may use Image > Adjustments > Levels with the same presets as you can see below:

Also set foreground color to #00ccff. After that select the Pen Tool (you need to make sure that you’re working with Paths instead of Shape Layers). Draw out the curve line using paths. Don’t forget that woman body has some reliefs, so in this case the line should be relief also because beam is refracted on the body and clothes.

Good, three laser beams will be enough for now. Then move to the second part of this tutorial. I think that we should add some highlight from the beams on the woman’s body and clothes. Get out the Polygonal Lasso Tool and select the face area. After that create a new layer and change layer mode to Overlay for this layer. Then choose the Brush Tool (Soft brush about 80 pixels, Opacity: 20%) and add some blue spots using the color of #00ccff like on my picture below.
