Introduction

This is the final result of this episode, a glowing pinkish-red neon text on a dark concrete wall, complete with light reflections bouncing off the wall surface. Let's get started. Hello, welcome back to the complete Adobe Photoshop series from Cerdas Inovasi Digital. Neon effects are one of the most popular text styles for cafes, event posters, and social media content. The key is a nearly white center and several colored light layers around it.

Step 1: Dark Wall

Open the concrete wall photo. Add brightness, contrast, and hue/saturation to darken and lower the saturation, making the wall look like a dimly lit room. Neon only looks dramatic against a dark background.

Step 2: Text in cursive style

Select the type tool with the Segoe Script font, type 'ngopi' in the center with a bright pink color. A thin handwritten font most closely resembles a glass tube neon. Open the text layer style, activate the inner glow with a white color and 80% opacity.

Step 3: Inner Glow

The center of the letter becomes almost white, like the brightest neon tube.

Step 4: First Outer Glow

Activate the outer glow with a pink color, blend mode screen, 90% opacity, and a small size around 12 pixels. The letter starts to emit dense light.

Step 5: Wide Second Light

Press Ctrl J to duplicate the text. On the duplicate, change the outer glow to a size around 60% with 60% opacity. Two layers of light, dense and wide, make the neon feel truly glowing.

Step 6: Reflection on the wall

Create a new layer with the overlay blend mode, then brush a large, soft pink light around the text. The wall seems to be illuminated by neon light. Save as PSD and export as JPG.

Done!

Done. We have darkened the background, used a handwritten font, white inner glow, layered outer glow, and light reflections on the wall for the neon effect. In the next episode, we will create text effects behind objects. Need to edit product photos for marketplaces, retouch photos, design posters, or create social media content?
