Apply a random Brush using (Brush Tool (B))

(The Direction of the Motion blur depends on how the gunpla facing its direction)

Move the Particles beside 00's GN Drives and here's the Result:

Go to (Filter>Sharpen>Sharpen) to sharpen the particles (GN Particles 2 Layer)
then delete some brush excess by using (Eraser (E)) and set the flow to 15%

Make a New Layer again and renamed it to "GN Particles 3" and apply some Random Particles again on the GN Drive.


Make a New Layer and name it to "Soft Brush" and apply them to the condensers and GN Drives like in this picture.

Set "Soft Brush Layer Blending mode to Overlay" and "Opacity by 40%"

Make a New Layer again and renamed it to "Clouds".
Set the Foreground to White and Background to Black from the Toolbar.

Make a New Layer and renamed it to "Cyan". Apply Soft Brush with #00F6FF (Color Cyan) on GN Drives, Condensers and Randomly on the particles and set the Blending Mode to Overlay and Opacity by 40%.

Go to Layer Adjustment and Select Photo Filter.
Set the color to #00D3EC and 25% for Density.

Make a New Layer and rename it to "Cyan". Apply Soft Brush with Color (Cyan) on the GN Drive and Condensers and set the Layer Blending Mode to Overlay and Opacity by 40%
