Getting Started
How awesome would it be to be able to create stars?! Now of course, this can’t be done in real life but in Photoshop, the possibilities are endless. We start off by selecting our image. We choose a beautiful panoramic image of the New York Skyline. Now in our original photo, there are no stars in the sky. This is perfect because it gives us room to operate in Photoshop. Some people might approach this process by creating a tiny brush and manually placing the stars into the skyline. This might not be the best approach for two simple reasons:
It would take you a great amount of time to position stars manually in Photoshop.
It won’t look realistic, all the stars would look exactly the same.
We knew that we had to approach creating stars with a different mindset if we wanted it to be time efficient and look realistic.
Creating a Custom Brush
We start off with creating a Custom Brush. We bring up a new document and make the size 500 x 500 pixels. After we have our new document, we focus on the details of our Custom Brush. Whenever creating a Custom Brush, make sure the background is white and the Brush color is black. We paint two tiny dots on opposite ends of our document. This will give the stars more variation when we actually place them on our image. Now that we have our Star Brush created we are halfway done. We need to change our Brush Settings in order to get our Star Brush to where we want it. We adjust our Shape Dynamics, Angle Jitter, and even Brush Size until our Star Brush is perfect. Scattering and Transfer also help with the spacing and visibility of our Star Brush. The goal is for our stars to look realistic, there should be no specific pattern or predictability. We finalize everything by saving a New Brush Preset. Make sure you name your Brush something easy to remember. Now that you’ve saved your new Brush, it’ll always be available for you!
Painting Stars
We begin painting stars over our image. We play around with the settings by making the size a bit larger and smaller. This helps us add variation to our stars. We then go back in and apply a Layer Mask to the image. We paint black every on the image that we don’t want our stars showing up. We decided to add a glow to our stars. Using our Layer Effects, we click on Outer Glow and choose the color of the glow. We bring the size of our stars up a bit and bring the Opacity down a bit as well. We finish things off by adding a Motion Blur to our stars. We adjust the Distance and Angle to our liking and this really helps sell the effect. We zoom out to make sure the stars are to our liking. The great thing about having the brush saved is that it’s easy to start over if we want. Now get out there and add some stars to some skies!
Wow this is one of the best tutorials I've seen for stars in Photoshop!
This guys is awesome. So much better than all the other tutorials.
FINALLY I found a tutorial about this! All I ever find are tutorials about how to make a star field using filters, but I needed one that taught me how to make a brush so I could apply it only where I wanted. THANK YOU SO MUCH THIS WAS SO HELPFUL! Definitely using this in some of my artworks :)
Congratulations Aaron!!!...maybe i saw it late but i did see The nice-bright Ring
Aaron Nace, I been watching your videos for several years now. This was another great one. Most of what I know about Photoshop, I learned by watching your videos. Thank you !
The stars on top of the clouds is a bit unrealistic.
+The Triads Yeah, maybe he shouldve masked them out a little bit as well. Feels like you cant look through them as good as at the cleat sky.
I was thinking the same.
+The Triads I love how he says there random ....I bet someone here is an astronomer too and is tearing hair out. I usually nick other peoples night sky images then use a combination of colour range select and blending to do it if needed and I even went an got topaz star effects because well its just so bloody handy.
You are the man . .
I used this technique .
Now I am also the man il post what I did once I finish
best star tutorial
I like to add noise and adjust the levels. Then a place a small blur and glow.
+Jamison Yzaguirre I agree. It will made the stars more realistic!
How do you add the glow?
love u re tutorials about custom brushes... nice work
Good idea to create brush with two dots in corners!
love your personality & your awesome star tips!! thank you for this video!
Phlearn is my favorite channel on UA-cam and first stop when I'm wanting to learn something new. Thank you guys so much!
Aaron, you're the real star here...
Thank You.
I like the work all of you guys do !
If you increase distance in motion blur it will add a rain effect.
Great brush Aaron, who are the haters giving the thumbs down

I'm designing book covers for a science fiction author. This is going to save me so much time. Out in space of course the stars don't have to be blurred, but the rest is still great. Thank you.

Hey Aaron, thanx for the episode, really cool (like always...)

Huge thanx in advance.

Yo hablo español pero entiendo a la perfección estos tutoriales.
Aaron es realmente bueno explicando. :)
thank you very much for all your tips! :)
Awesome!
Thousand thanks !!! :O
i think you can make it more realistic by taking the sky as a black and white map, by this way, the stars in dark areas will be more brighter while lighter areas will be less brighter
Nice one. As always.
But how about a Q&A episode? It's been a while since the last one and a lot of thing have changed when it comes to PHLEARN and Aaron's quest for the holy grain. ;)
Thank you so much for this awesome tutorial, it helped me a lot!! I am subscribing, I look forward to seeing more tutorials from you! :D
EXCELLENT!!!
Nice. I would have masked stars over clouds though.
i would like to see a shooting star and orbiting planets video as i love making fantasy / si fi pics but i dont feel i can ever get these 2 right in my night skys
Aron Sir u r awesome...

Super cool & extra helpful video, I love your videos no just because of learning but your commentary is so nice and funny to hear. :)
These Photoshop tutorials are amazing! Do you also do Illustrator tutorials? Or maybe you know of a good channel that does that you can recommend?
THanks dude! My art has beautiful stars in it now. I've learned so much from you I went ahead and subscribed
Thank for the great tips and the brushes. Just wondering if it is possible to make a cinemagraph of the stars twinkling use various brightness of the brush.?
Awesome video!!!!

Hello AARON . I wanna say thank you first and ask for, if you can make video about work in deferent thing in photo like use many episodes in 1 photo without repeat tutorials . Thank you very much!
Are there going to be any more photography contests? I really like them. They're very inspiring. :)
I like your advice about keeping the screen clean LOOL
Hey; Great video! I just created a pixelated version for pixel game backgrounds i will be working on in the future. I had to set the roundness to 0% in the brush tip shape to stop the pixel dimensions changing to look like Tetris pieces.
can you do a time slice tutorial, whereby visible changes in exposure (day-night) are visible in slices on a single frame
