How do you add smoke to a picture?

[jorge14]

hello friends.

I wanted to start a new feature in my images and is adding a little smoke (to look like DRIFT) if you know how I can do that might help me please.

Err, and I though you're good enough in photoshop

so you want to get something like this right ?

well the easiest way is using cloud brushes for photoshop , you can get them in many places , here are some that i found

download them here

everything else is imagination and skills , play with the colors , opaque and things like that

thank you very much friend will try to practice this.

I have a question, where did you install?

[Triple_X]

OLOL you don't know how to install brushes ahahha xD remove the "best photoshop-er" from your signature

open photoshop and the image , click the brush tool , open the brush browser (the one you select the brushes) in the right upper corner should be a little arrow , click it and it will open a sub menu , click load brushes and find the file

P.S. told you , you still have a lot to learn

Lmao, that was funny. How can you be the best photoshop-er then

What is a friend but I understood very soon I will show some pictures of the subject.

@ RacingFreak: Please if you have nothing useful to say do not say anything

If you want my EASY way then here it is:
make a new layer then use the gradient tool to make the smoke then use dodge tool.(check the picture Drifting in the screen shots)


EDIT:Triple_x,can you make a tutorial for this?
tried this brush but it makes clouds!not smoke.

I always wanted to do this!!! thank you!
Maybe someone should post Photoshop tutorials!

You should ask about photoshop tutorials at photoshop forums, more likely to get a response there.

Also try searching "photoshop smoke tutorial" on google.
