Dark side of the heart
Translation: spllogics (Spanish >> English)
Level: Advanced
1.The idea was to show to a face / heart so that something surreal in this day of the Love and the Friendship was seen. First it was to find a photo that allowed me to make the heart with the face... the majority we have that completion in the face, I took one whichever photos and this was the one that I chose.
2.Step two was to try to have the
minuses possible elements that they gave the appearance to a face. So I erased
an eye occupying tool CLONE STAMP and occupied of base the left part of my
front. This it is the result.
They can see that I did not give much emphasis in the edges, I did not
worry then more ahead I thought about hiding them with a texture.
3.I copied and desaturate layer of the face and I located it over all the image
with the LAYER BLENDING>Overlay to obtain a better resistance, imprimiendo
emphasis in the shades.
4.Soon I added a LAYER MASK to the image of the face and erased all the bottom
that was what it was hindering to me until the moment. And I added a smooth
texture at heart, I modified the HUE/sat to him so that the tones harmonized
with the face bases.
5.The face is inlaid in the texture of the bottom. So I decided to add to layer
between the face and the texture of bottom, in this one layer I began to give
him to volume in some parts occupying so large BRUSH 200 and with an Opacity of
30. And I darkened some parts of the face and outside him.
6.I added a heavy texture that I found in a tree a long time ago. This texture
is the one that goes to make the form of heart clearer. The LAYER BLENDING that
I occupied was HARD LIGHT and in addition to I changed the HUE/sat so that it
fitted in the colors that I am occupying.
Soon I applied a LAYER to him MASK and with the round BRUSH with an opacity of 50 I began to erase everything so what it did not need, and as I explain it in the previous tutorial.
7.Soon I applied a LAYER to him MASK and with the round BRUSH with an opacity
of 50 I began to erase everything so what it did not need, and as I explain it
in the previous tutorial.
8.Soon I applied a heavy texture of a tree (note that I like those textures),
LAYER BLENDING>normal in the part of the mouth and nose with the purpose of
hiding these parts. I changed the HUE/sat to him to yellowish oranges colors and
I applied a LAYER to him MASK to erase what it did not need.
9.Over all layer I added to layer of BRIGHTNESS/contrast, as its name says it,
to obtain a greater resistance. In addition to which I marked to the contours of
the heart the part of the face adding a LAYER and painting with round BRUSH 100
to an opacity of 50.
10.I added a alongside left pair of textures of the image. One in the superior
corner and another one in the inferior part, of this one form the texture that
is at heart lets see as a single texture and now more is confused. That was all
the purpose of those textures:) Both textures have way LAYER BLENDING>Overlay
and with a little modification in the resistance and the HUE/sat so that they do
not desarmonicen the image
11.Now the work in the eye, the first which I tried was to do it in form of
flower, something comes as well as a " daisy " white petals and the center in
yellow, but I saw that too much was lost the yellow of the eye, in addition of
which the petals I called others the attention... did not like so I tried
something different from that. I took a few photos from the hollows that can
have in the house and I liked one of the washbasin. I occupied it putting it on
all layers, LAYER BLENDING>hard LIGHT, soon desaturé completely and erased the
parts that did not only need... I left superior the contour more defined than
the inferior one so that it did not shine completely flat. And with round BRUSH
45, with an opacity of 50 I painted the internal part to make it more "
mysterious "
12.I realized that the image was becoming too yellow, so to resist the yellow I
added to layer HUE/sat and desaturé a little to -43.
And (eye) I applied the LAYER to him BLENDING>Darken so the image was not desaturada, if not that the parts that were going away to desaturar tended to become greenish...;)
13.I added a new one to layer and I filled it of black. Soon I applied the LAYER
to him BLENDING>Soft Light to make some parts of the image darkest.
14.Soon I added to layer, over everything, with the roots of a tree to simulate
the veins that leave the heart.
I added a LAYER MASK and I hid everything to him what it did not need.
NOTE: In sketch it had done I thought that arriving up to here
already it would be finished, but still we can see some areas without elements,
as it is it all the area of the right, lacks elements and the part of down has
the same problem. I proved several solutions, adding organic branches, roots,
leaves, flowers and many elements more, but nothing seemed to fit. So I decided
on the easy exit, a texture.
15. I added a texture of smooth of one laminates oxidized and I applied to the LAYER BLENDING>Pin Light (I believe that it is the second time in all along which I have manipulating that I occupy east way ) Of this form the right side to him already obtained an element, not of my total affability, but good.
Equal I did in the inferior part of the image, the same texture, the same way, but only that this time I moved it so that the visible parts of the texture were in the area that did not have anything.
16. Soon desaturé all the image (continuously desaturo) adding a LAYER of HUE/sat
> -50
17. Again I added to layer of BRIGHTNESS/contrast > +19, they are already had to
imagine that was to give him to resistance to some areas In addition I returned
when layer of the face and with BURN TOOL>20 I darkened some areas of the
contour of the face to give volume him.
18.The image continued giving problems to me with the finished one. Completely
it was not satisfied with the appearance. So I began to approve different things
that sense does not have to explain but after trying a friend much it advised to
me to add to layer with a color RGB 166.124.82 over all the image, soon to put
that to layer in the LAYER BLENDING>Overlay and with an opacity of 50
19.I added a heavy texture of a cuarteadura of a wall in the intermediate part
of the image to simulate " cortada/herida ", LAYER BLENDING>Color Burn and soon
I applied a LAYER to him MASK so that only it was left the cuarteadura.
20.A pair of texture in the area of the right inferior corner to occupy that
space, I modified the HUE/sat to them to make them color yellow (or similar) and
put the LAYER to them BLENDING>HArd light in addition I applied a LAYER to them
MASK to erase what it did not need hehehee
21. I kept the image and a pair
of days later I returned to her to see if it could improve what it did not
satisfy me completely and surprise! when I saw I said Already " is
finished " hehehehe so to only I added an edge and my signature) And ready.
22. After finished I was it a pair of friends to know some opinions and both
considered that already it was finished. So I decided to postear it = D
I wait for them has been of utility this brief tutorial. Remember that
always it interests to me to know its opinions and suggestions.
