    Hi Corey!
    I love all of your tutorials! As some of you may know, Britney Spears is going back on tour. Her show is called “The Circus Starring: Britney Spears”
    I thought that this technique would be perfect to create a promotional image for the tour. This is what I made:

    WOW. Excellent tutorial. I am not necessarily following all tutes but it is very inspirational and gives ideas how to approach certain things. Cool stuff.

    I wasn’t excited about this tutorial at first, but when I saw the end result, I was really happy. Simple techniques that produced a very realistic and dimensional effect. The only alteration I made is adding a row of smaller “stage lights” across the bottom of the piece using the same lighting effects filter technique.

    You are a Photoshop creative genius! Fantastic and mesmerizing steps are always presented, Corey!

    When I try to replicate what you show, I have play and replay (and replay) the various steps to reach a similar end result. Have you ever thought about having a “recipe” printout ready for your visitors to have?

    Thank you for your great website too!

    Holy-jaw-dropping-tutorial Batman!!! You are the shiznik. Who would of thought it would be like taking candy from a baby. Because I was so impressed I didn’t leave a link to my site, but instead to the digg that I made coming back to this awesome tut.

    Other commentators who are also Diggers please give Corey a little more PR by digging the link in my name. I don’t get credit, but I have gotten Corey number one on google for the Key Phrase “Make Movie Curtains in Photoshop”

    You are the man!!!!!!!!

    The tutorial really rocks, but I would recommend one thing, to make the stars (brush) a little less fake. In the brush options-panel, under shape dynamics, activate the angle jitter, so the stars get a random rotation.

    Great turorial but what about the bottom side of the curtain, where if I was to animate the curtain rising, you would expect to see the folds as 3D.

    Any suggestions
