    ok, so once you have your bg done and you want to add some multi color you can do this.

    first make a color balance
    -set the midtones, and the highlights till you get what you want
    now, make another color balance. i like to make the first invisible so i can see what colors im getting
    -set the midontes and the highlights again, but something different.
    ok, make the first color balance layer visible again.
    -reset your colors to b/w
    filter/render/clouds on the top layer
    -you can also brush black instead, wherever you want the bottom color to show through.

    here is one i made. when i do others, ill post if you want.

    any questions/comments post here.

    cred/rep appreciated, but im not asking for any..

    edit - fixed a vital error

    ok, i figured if you can brush on either layer, but doesnt look so great if you do it on jsut the bottom. doing it on both works.

    Nice job, Sublime, but I have a question. Whenever I try that, the two colors always blend, and the multicolor effect is hard to see.

    Example:
    First CB layer : Red
    Second CB layer : Yellow/Gold

    Result: Orange-ish Yellow

    Is there any way to stop it from blending the colors? Or do I just have to use very different colors? :huh:

    hrmm...... maybe the colors are too similar. are you doing the midtones and the hightlights? maybe thats it. can i see the psd and try to fix the problem?
