newbornphotog Posted November 17, 2016 Author Share Posted November 17, 2016 Yes, I have googled for over a week... Literally. I have found nothing that looks real like the one in this picture. I have tried several fairy dust brushes and they all look flat and fake. I have googled different word combinations trying to find an overlay. For example, Fairy dust trail, christmas magic, and magic dust trail. The only thing that shows up in brushes or flat looking overlays. I can make a pixie dust trail with the color yellow or white but it looks nothing like this. I wish I could find a gold sparkling magic overlay. Deviant Art had a picture with magic that did have the effect I was looking for but it had no link to what they used to create it. Its hard to explain but I want it to look bright shiny gold and not like I took a color sample of yellow... Hopefully that makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Symonds Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Ok, yeah, I think I know how this is done. I think I made the sparkles a bit too dense, but is this roughly in the ballpark? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
