Using PS CS, we'll be turning into . This tutorial is translatable only to other PS programs.

01 Start with your base. Here's my base.
02 Duplicate your base and set it to screen 25%.
03 Make a new Hue/Saturation/Lightness adjustment layer, and set master saturation to 30.
04 Make a new Selective Color adjustment layer, and input these values:
     Reds: -100 0 100 0
     Yellows: 100 0 -85 0
     Cyans: 100 0 -100 100
     Blues: 100 0 100 0
     Neutrals: 100 25 -10 -25
05 Duplicate the Selective Color layer.
06 Copy Merge your icon and paste it as a new layer. Go to Filter > Blur > Radical Blur, and input the settings that fit your icon.
07 Erase the part covering the subject, so it leaves a blur around the edges.
08 Duplicate the blur layer and set it to softlight 100%
09 Paste this texture (by ?) and set it to screen 100%.
10 Paste this texture (by ?) and set it to screen 100%.
11 Copy Merge your icon and paste it as a new layer. Set it to color burn 15%.
12 Make a new Brightness/Contrast adjustment layer, and set both brightness and contrast to 7.
13 Paste this texture (by [info]peoplemachines) and set it to screen 55%. I erased the parts covering Nanaly, so the scratches are only on the blur.
14 Make a new Color Balance adjustment layer, and input these settings: Shadows: 0 -10 0


I'd love to see what you guys come up with, so please post your results! Hope this tutorial helped :)

Oh btw, I think those lens flare-ish textures you've been using lately are by [info]gravira at [info]ninesouls :)
