Description
Btw - forgot to add the final step (not shown) that makes it look more realistic. Use filter > distort > twirl on the strokes layer (just a little!) to give it that final touch.
Anyway.
I wanted to make a Tie Dye effect for a recent piece (see here [link] ) and searched fruitlessly for hours for a tutorial that created the exact effect I wanted.
So I made it up.
Assuming that someone else out there may want to know how to do this, I did this tutorial based on the steps I took. Now you have the benefit of knowing how to do it too, without the 45 minutes of screwing around with different ways of doing it to get it right! : D
enjoy
(And if you use it, I'd love to see how you did - feel free to comment with a link, and I'll check it out!)
*UPDATE
I've expanded on this tutorial with a quicker, better method for creating the white streaks. Check it out here [link]

I'm wanting to do a candy corn tie dye for something I'm working on. I have tried both ways--putting all three colors on one layer AND putting each color on its own layer. Neither way I do it will it allow me to Filter - Distort - Twirl (or Spherize, even). Neither one is higlighted. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? Thanks for your help!
