I've decided to try and organize my things, so I am reposting my 4 older tutorials to this community for a tutorial index that I am preparing.
Go from:
To:
Colouring tutorial. Made in PS7. Non-Translatable. Uses selective colour and colour balance.
Prepare your base, obviously. Duplicate your base twice. Set the first to Overlay 100%, the second to screen 53%.
New adjustment layer - Colour Balance
Midtones: -9, +10, 0
Shadows: -9, +10, 0
Highlights: -7, +8, 0
New adjustment layer - Selective Colour
NEUTRALS:
+25, -9, -32, +17
Colour fill layers
Overlay - #ABBEBD - 100%
Multiply - #F6E0BD - 100%
Duplicate your base and drag it to the top. Keep it on normal, 34%
New adjustment layer - Hue/Saturation
Saturation: -34%
Set it to overlay, 44% and drag it to the top.
And that's all!
Go from:
To:
Made in PS7. Non-Translatable. Uses selective colour, colour balance and curves.
Duplicate the base once. Set it to soft light 100%
If your pic is dark, don't be afraid to add a screen layer to whatever opacity suits the picture. But for my base, a soft light layer did fine.
