Alright y’all, today is the day that I’ve finally managed to make a tutorial! I’m going to be showing how I created the effect in my lotr and the witcher sets!
For this tutorial you need to know how to make gifs and have a lot of time on your hands!
Below include a step by step tutorial (pictures included) for how to create a vintage coloring for your image + how to create your own light leak textures.
Hello!! First your Tumblr and edits are so gorgeous! Second I was wondering if you were willing to share how you did the second gif of this edit please? Have a great day! (Or night)

I got some questions about how I did the glitch effect in this set, and I think because the glitch sets with green and magenta/red and cyan protrusions like this one are more complex that the effect seems like it’s hard, but it’s deceptively simple! I’ll show you how to do transitions like this with an effect buffer in between, whether it’s a glitch effect or a light leak or anything else.
What you’ll need:
Photoshop with timeline (I use 2022)
A transition video for the effect
Preferably, a good knowledge of how to use the timeline for gifs
@lightasthesun requested a tutorial for how to create fading transitions in photopea, so i am here! this is a little more time-consuming than using a timeline in photoshop would be, but it’s actually a lot simpler than i was anticipating, which is always a win.
Someone asked me how I created the fade transition in this gifset which I’ll try to explain in the most comprehensive way that I can. If you’ve never done something like this before, I suggest reading through the full tutorial before attempting it so you know what you’ll need to plan for.
To follow, you should have:
basic knowledge of how to make gifs in photoshop
some familiarity with the concept of how keyframes work
