Photo to painting adobe Photoshop CC

Photo to painting adobe Photoshop CC. In this Photoshop tutorial, in theory, we look at the process of creating the painting “The intention Seductive» ( «Seductive Intent»). The lesson is designed to have advanced Photoshop users.

Start with simple elements; If the composition is not obtained in the early stages, then as the addition of new parts it will improve. Do not be afraid to erase and repaint, you can always revert to the original version. Take small breaks in the work, as your eyes tend to tire and get used to mistakes.

In this tutorial, I used a photo from Concept Art. At the beginning of the work necessary to make a sketch of our photos. Below is an example of the techniques I used to keep proportions.

“Guide” system.

To get the right proportions, I use the so-called ” Guide ” (markings). To begin, we open our image. Using the line marking ” the Ctrl + the R “, to highlight the most important parts of the image. For example, I marked out her face on main parts: the left eye, right eye, nose, ear, and the same goes for the hands, torso, legs, etc. The more carefully you divide the image, the easier it will be to make the right proportion.

Now, please be patient. Marking up our image, save it as ” ref.psd ” and once again as the ” cg.psd “. Delete the picture with ” cg.psd “, only to leave marks on the white background. Now open ” ref.psd “, for convenience align both windows and start to do a sketch on a blank canvas – ” cg.psd ” (sketch create a new layer). I always start to sketch a face, zooming to 200% . For difficult areas (hands, face) always choose the zoom as much as possible.

Now that the sketch is ready, we proceed to its coloring. Create a new layer beneath the thumbnail. It is best to set the opacity of the layer thumbnail in the 50% . Select the color palette. I chose the darker shades for the skin and the background. If you already have experience in creating such images, then use their palette skin. In this case, it is desirable to take 3 or 4 colors (two medium tone, one primary and one shadow) that is sufficient.

Next, distribute the colors within the meaning of the picture, as you see fit, only Make sure that you pick the right color. The possible use of some of the background colors on the main figure combines elements of the foreground to the background.

Working with layers.

In order that would not get confused, group all the layers into folders, for example all the layers of our figure in the group of ” girl ” and the same with the background.

Mix colors.

Now that we have set the color, you can start to mix them. For this I use a brush with 50% of the stiffness and 50% transparency, anti-aliasing to get the color, repeat the process to achieve the desired result.

Detailing.

Let us further detail; it is necessary to identify those parts that are the focus falls (in this case a person). Soften shades transitions. Details such as the clothing items are added on separate layers.

Color and light.

Now we need to combine our song, it needs to show some color with the background on the skin of our girls (make a new layer with the blending mode of the Color (Color) and the layer opacity 10 – 20% ). Do not be afraid to use color to avoid monotony. At this stage, I detailed the drawing table and said light source, but note that the light enters the left of our composition all three main object of the picture: table, figure, background. Is trying to properly distribute the light in the picture and achieve realistic effects.

For realistic skin girl using turquoise in the place to which falls the main focus (use low transparency 3 – 5% ).

Clarification.

Now that our picture is almost ready, pay attention to the small missing items. Do not be afraid of anything, still better late than never. Show your work friends, ask them to say what is missing, if need be, add missing elements.

Adding noise.

For more spectacular paintings, add noise (noise), which will provide relief:

Create a new layer and fill it with: RGB 128 ; Now the Filter> the Noise> the Add noise (Filter> Noise> Add Noise) and put 400%; Set the mode mixing layer on Overlay (overlap) and transparency 3 – 10%.

That’s all.
