Today, I made a Simple Adobe Photoshop CS3 Tutorial on colouring an image (but I assume it works on any other version of Photoshop). It is a step by step process that will teach you how to make this:
I have provided some screen captures to help. :)1. First you save and open this image into Photoshop.
2. Then you go into Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Levels
This will pop up. Set the numbers to 37, 1.56, 234
Press OK
3. Next go to Layer > New Adjustment Layer> Colour Balance
This will pop up. Set the numbers to:
Midtones; -47, -27, +12
Shadows; -10, +4, +9
Highlights; -15, 0, -13
Press OK
4. Now go to Layer> New Adjustment Layer> Selective Colour
This will pop up. Set the numbers to:
reds; -20, +10, -15, +19
greens; +86, 100, 100, 100
Cyans; +2, 0, 0, 0
Whites; 100, +9, +41, -21
Neutrals; +9, +5, -9, -3
Blacks; +17, +16, +21, +11
Press OK
5. Go to your layers. Duplicate the layer and set it to soft light. To do that, left Click on the selective colour layer you just made. Press Duplicate. Click on the duplicated layer. There should be a drop down tab in the left corner of your layers window. Click it and press soft light. Your layer window should look something like this.
6. Next Take this texture (credit sanami276) and Save it onto your computer. Then, open it into Photoshop. If you would not like to save this image simply left click on your mouse and copy the image. Go into Photoshop and paste it onto a new canvas.
7. Resize the texture so it is approximately 500pxl in height. Now copy and paste this texture onto the image (It should be the top layer). Now set it to "Screen". It should make a lighting effect. You can move the texture around with your arrow tool and place it where it looks best.
8. Take the eraser tool and erase the lighting effects you don't need off the image (eg; the face).
That's It! Your Done! The Final Image should look similar to this.
I hope you enjoyed the tutorials! If you have any questions, feel free to lave me a comment, thank you! :)
