Someone asked me how I made the lightsabers on [link]
So basically decided to make this "tutorial" explaining how I make my lightsabers.
This is for photoshop (I use CS2, but it works as well with earlier versions), but I'm quite sure you can adapt it to quite all the softwares of this kind..

You probably can fin dozens of different way to make those glowing lightsabers. Mine is maybe not the best way, but this is my way and it works for me.

You'll want to experiment by yourself though, this should be used as a basis to work on, then adapt it so you're more comfortable.

I hope this will help some of you starwars fans and others wanting to draw some lightsabers.
Note that this tutorial covers only the blade part.

Please let me know if you used it and feel free to post a link to your pictures with your own lightsaber ;)

Thanks Chloebs!
I noticed a couples of typos, and a big mistake.. when I say duplicate the layer, I wrote you can do ctrl+shif+N, but actually it's for making a new layer.. lol how did I make a mistake like that.. oh well.:P

Maybe you'll make some starwars pic then ?? ;)
