NOTE: These other examples might include slight modifications…

Hi!
Okay, so technically right now, I'm suppose to be doing homework, but instead I made a tutorial. *Sigh* I know I'm such a procrastinator. Oh, well I'll get it done eventually…

Anyway hope you have fun with this one. Just a note to go with it, this colouring is best used with pictures with a lot of purple or with deep reds - like Kate Walsh coloured hair. Have fun!

IF YOU'RE TRYING OR MEMMING PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT.
I like to know who's using my work. Love to see your results as well :)
Please don't claim as your own work.
(Tutorial List)

Crop your base and sharpen your image.
(also… this particular example doesn't call for it, but if you need to Duplicate the image and set to Screen.)
