Someone on Facebook recently asked… How can I get something to look iridescent digitally? So I worked up a Photoshop tutorial with a couple of examples on how you can utilize curve modification, layer blending styles, and gradient maps so you can get an iridescent effect that you want! Hopefully this helps (and you can read my writing, that’s also something). I hope you enjoy this iridescent Photoshop tutorial!
Want to know how to do something else? Send me a message and I’ll see if I can work up a tutorial for you!
