This is how to draw a lightsaber in photoshop!

Open Background or Create New Picture.

You can either open a picture or create a new picture, whichever you do, make sure that where you're drawing the blade is not too bright!(If it is the blade won't show up! My example has a background color "400000".)

Draw Blade

step3.gif
This is when you draw the blade. If you have to draw the handle, make it about 2px bigger than the blade.
1) Start from the close end of the handle going as long as you want the blade.
2) Rounde the end of the blade by going to the paintbrush tool and make it as wide as the blade. Put it at the far end of the blade.

Color the Blade

Color the blade by:
