Hi there @zaxchan!
There are many ways to do it, here’s a fast one:
Step 1 - Create a gradient
Step 2 - Use the smudge tool to create the spikes
Step 3 - Duplicate that and scale it down vertically, brighter values
Step 4 - Scale both textures horizontally
Step 5 - Duplicate them and make them tile
Step 6 - Polar Coordinates!
Step 7 - Gradient maps to adjust color
Step 8 - Take your time to play around with different shapes and colors!
Obviously that was a fast sketch so don’t take this as a production ready asset hahaha
Have a nice day!

During the copying over and making tile able step, it is useful to also introduce some variation as otherwise your resulting texture looks exactly mirrored, which is easy to spot and not super interesting, also, you’re using the texture space, so you might as well.
thk you guys, i will try it later

Hi, you can ever draw this texture by hand, it’s the easiest way for me.
hi, i watch all of your tutorial, glad to see you reply me Xd haha
erm…for this topic, i know how to draw the shape. but i dont know how to blend the color(gradient) nicely.
It’s easy, just use inside shadow and glow.
