Creating retro lines with perspective

[MortimerJazz]

Hi there,

I've come across this image on Flickr:

Can anyone suggest (or point me in the right direction!), how the three main lines which come down the picture were created?

I quite like the effect of them

Thanks very much,

i don't know how they did it, but if it was me, i would just draw them. I trust my eye with things like that more than i trust any application.

I would just use the pen tool and draw it.

If I were attempting this I would first use the pen tool and use paths instead of shape layers of course, then draw out the white lines with the pen tool and stroke them to whatever brush width you would like, then i would combine all of your white lines into a single layer then duplicate it and fill in the colors of the duplicated one, and turn down the opacity to whatever suites your fancy on the layer with the colors...

If you are using Illustrator, you can just draw the perspective lines with a sharp angle and apply 'round edges' on each with decreasing radius from right to left... (hope this makes sense )

Yep, I agree the best way to do it is just with the pen tool.
