Some effects I tried to make my own. It's what I do when I get bored, get internet inspired.

Lovely work! I like the way you've done Green Hornet.

ek22: wow! they all look really good, not to say fantastic! my favourite is "prince of persia".

Thanks, glad you like them.

Wow, fantastic. #1 Green Hornet #2 The Iron Man. Oh, heck, I like them all.

Are all excellent
I think to prefer 2 and 3 because in 1 there is a too extended change of hue all around the 2 light spots.
The yellowish color of the spots is perfect, but i think the yellow cast should not extend so much , to the point to change inside the 2 letters closer to the reflexes , the cyan in orange.

Still also the first is very nice

they are all very nice and how about a run - down of the workflow?

I was afraid you might say that 2-ton, which one do you want as a tut?

uh, you mean they are all different. Hmmm, how about Iron Man, because I like that little line that tapers off.

Oh, that's maybe the easiest part of all of it. You take a dot and go to gaussian blur, unhook the chains and blur much wider than tall. Then duplicate, blur like that again, merge down, repeat until it looks right and is long enough.

Those are all great EK22 and really well done.

Lol, I thought it would be much more difficult than some blurs!

No, it's so simple I facepalmed when I saw this tutorial on it a while back too.
