Tut




Okay the preview isn't the best result - I actually like this colouring. And I know that my selective colouring is a bit tiring, bear with me.

1- Open your base, sharpen, crop etc. Just whatever you do to your pics before starting.

2- New layer, fill it with dcf3f1, set it to Darken, 60% opacity.

3- New Selective Colouring Layer.

Reds: -100, -40, 100, -37

4- Another SC layer.

Reds: -100, 37, 51, 78

5- Another SC layer.

Reds: 39, 0, -50, 0

6- New layer, fill with c9aacf, set to Luminosity, 25% opacity.

7- Another SC Layer. :P

Neutrals: 19, 0, -14, 0

8- The last one, I promise!

Reds: -100, 11, 0, 30

9- New layer, fill with ececec, set to Multiply.

10- Add your textures and shizz and you're done.


.. I hope I typed everything correct.

Great tut! However, I suggest you put this under an LJ-cut. :)

This is a lovely effect!
Would you mind putting this under a cut?

I knew I'd mess something up. How do you make a cut? :/

Hmm.. I have to edit my entry and put that instead? If so, it isn't working. :( God I'm stupid.

i love this colouring!
here's my result:

i had to tweak a few things though, because the reds were too bright in some selective colouring layers, so i toned down the -100 to anywhere from -40 to +32.
and i added a black overlay layer for some shazaam too!

I'm so sorry, I actually don't really care about the tutorial as much as I love the Dresden Dolls!! :D

But! With that aside, it IS a great tutorial. :D I'm using it on some pics I have right now. I'll try to post them later to show what I get from em. =) Thanks.
