TUTORIAL NUMBER TEN.
pinkish tutorial psp9.
Going from THIS to
First you need to open your program you'll be using.
I'm using PSP9.
Open up you image. I'll be using THIS cap of Calleigh Duquesne from CSI Miami (cap from http://csi-caps.com)
I cropped it to 352x352 just to make a smaller pallate.
It works best if you use a large base to start. I usually do that with all of my icons.
Duplicate your base & set layer to SCREEN / OPACITY 100
(sometimes i need to duplicate the base twice & have two screen layers)
LAYER >> NEW ADJUSTMENT LAYER >> COLOR BALANCE
SETTINGS
Shadows; 19 / 23 / 96
Midtones; -15 / 21 / 35
Highlights; 10 / -21 / 19
Merge all.
Resize to 100x100.
ADJUST >> SHARPNESS >> UNSHARP MASK
Radius: 2.00
Strength: 12
Clipping: 0
& make sure luminance only is CHECKED.
Your done. =]
Keep in mind that depending on your base your icon will turn out different & may require different settings.
