Kylo Ren and Rey Lightsaber Battle Shows Photo Editing Magic

rey and ren

If you cosplay a Jedi or Sith, you’re probably going to have a lightsaber that goes with your costume and you’ll probably want to have that lightsaber glow properly. Laura Sanchez, also known as Nebulaluben, recently participated in a photo shoot as Rey with another cosplayer portraying Kylo Ren. They reenacted moments of the duo’s lightsaber battle on Starkiller Base. Laura applied some editing Force to the picture to make the lightsabers pop and recorded a tutorial. The how-to is in Spanish, but if you don’t speak that language, you can still follow the visuals:

  1. Amazing image. Excellent edition. It looks as taken from a movie.
    She explains the whole process with wit and charm, so that most people can understand it.
    I think Nebulaluben could also explain it in English.
