Tutorial #2
How to go from
to
General color scheme for my first batch of Hellsing OVA icons tutorial--hopefully of some use! Requested by impression ~ ♥
I use PSP7, but I'm pretty sure this should translate.
We're going to icon this cap of Walter. Why? Because I play favorites. That's really the only reason. :D
NOTE: I only found one psp file in the folder that this batch is in, which means in order to have the batch look consistent I followed the same basic steps.
01.
Duplicate the base layer and set it to Screen 100%. Duplicate it again and set this layer to Soft Light 76%.
02.
Create a new layer, set to Exclusion 100%. Fill it with #00123A and duplicate it.
03.
Create a new layer, set it to Overlay 10%, and fill it with #E15C33.
04.
Create a new layer, set it to Burn 37%, and fill it with #F9B3F3.
05.
Create a new layer, set it to Overlay 34%, and fill it with #BEB0B0.
06.
Create a new layer, set it to Exclusion 21%, and fill it with #00123A.
07.
Create a new layer, set it to Multiply 44%, and fill it with #E1D08C.
08.
Duplicate your base layer, set it to Soft Light 13%, and place it above the Multiply layer.
09.
Copy the merged image, desaturate it, and set it to Soft Light 65% underneath those first two Exclusion layers.
10.
And voila, you have you an icon! I, however, am going to go ahead and add a level of Curves at the very top, which gives me this finished result:
Icon's up for grabs, questions are welcome, and don't forget that what works for one image won't neccessarily work for another(adjust those opacities, kiddos!).
