Made in Photoshop CS2
.PSD here
For those who are interested in doing everything by themselves, step by step, here is the tutorial:
1. Crop your image and do what you usually do.
>>
2. This coloring was forst made for a bit dark icon, so for most images you'll have to duplicate the layer and set it to MultiplY (Opacity depends on the image and for the best resault should be adjusted when all the other steps are done) or just use Curves.
>>
3. Then using a round brush with soft edges make a white dot(or few dots depending on your cropping and image) on a new layer and change it to Soft Light (Opacity 35-45%).
>>
4. Selective Color (Method: Relative)
Cyans: +75/-27/-45/0
Blues: +5/-18/-30/0
Whites: 0/0/0/+18
Blacks: 0/0/0/+9
>>
5. Color Fill, #fff4ed, Soft Light 45%
>>
6. Curves #1 (First number is Input, the second is Output, make sure you don't do vice versa!)
RGB: 170/191
Green: 138/132
Blue: (1st point) 75/77, (2nd) 255/229(move upper right point)
>>
7. Curves #2 (there will be many points at some Channels, they'll be listed in order from left to right)
RGB: 13/26, 23/41, 150/202, 225/255(move upper right point)
Green: 129/132
Blue: 17/17, 105/108, 255/240(move upper right point)
>>
8. Curves #3
RGB: 193/146
Green: 18/21
>>
9. Curves #4 (Set this layer to Color Burn 100%)
RGB: 0/255(move lower left point), 255/209(move upper right point)
>>
10. Duplicate Soft Light layer from step # and drag it to the top or create new similar layer.
>>
Done.
PS: Don't follow the tutorial directly every time, try to chande things to get the best resault for your image.
