Re: Fan Art Tutorials
My first tutorial on the new forum, requested by lover of narnia I hope it will be OK, though I believe it will be highly not professional... sorry!
A problem is that my Photoshop is not English version, so I don't know the original names of all tools, but I'll try my best!
For Photoshop, I hope it's translatable.
From this: To this:
1. Choose the picture, scale, crop, etc. to get the desired form.
2. Choose the tool that is a lightening brush (looks like a black lollypop), set the lightening on lights, 27% and stroke once.
2. Choose the shade brush (an icon of a hand), set on darkening the shadows, 27%, stroke once.
3. Choose a black-and-white brush, set on 32%, stroke once (or replace with any other B&W tool, just set on 32%).
4. Take this texture: http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm42 ... text83.jpg Place it over the picture, choose 'blend', set blending on 'multiplying', opacity 100% and then move the texture around till you get the place you want to cover the original image.
5. Choose light brush, set on brightening lights, 27%, click once on the texture.
6. Take this texture: http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm42 ... text35.jpg See this row of stripes in the upper part of the right side? That's what you want on the picture, so move it over in the right way, choose 'blending', set on 'multiplying', opacity 100%.
And done! As an addition, you can smoothen out Anna's face, parts of the textures and such, to get a better effect
I hope it was at all understandable... if not, sorry! Forgive me, mere amateur!

Re: Fan Art Tutorials
Tutorial #23: How to get this: From this:
Requested by Wunderkind_Lucy.
(The first part of this tutorial was using the first tutorial here)
Open and prep your base/image.
Duplicate the base layer once.
Add a layer of #9aa4e2 on Value (Luminosity on other programs, I think) at 100% opacity.
Merge the top two layers, set the merged layers on Overlay at 100%.
Below that layer, add three layers of #041128 on Screen, Screen then Subtract all at 100% (Exclusion on photoshop).
Above the merged layer, add three transparent layers and fill with the following colors.
#89b4d9 - Soft Light at 100%.
#55849a - Overlay at 75%.
#572d6b - Lighten Only at 25%.
Add another transparent layer, use a large fuzzy brush and paint a dot with a bright red color (#f00d0d). Set the layer on Screen, go to Filters>Blur>Gaussian Blur and blur it to about 50. Move it to wherever you like.
Flatten.
Brightness-Contrast: Set the brightness to -10 and the contrast to +5.
Add a layer of #351503 on Soft Light at 15%.
Flatten again.
Go to Colors>Hue-Saturation:
Set the Master to +15. Red: +15. Yellow: +25.
Add another fill layer and fill it with #fff0c8, set it on Multiply, add a layer mask, copy and paste the base layer into it and set the layer to 25%.
Sharpen and blur if you like and you're done!
Let me know if you have any questions.
Enjoy!

Re: Fan Art Tutorials
Tutorial #61 - This: to this: recreating this: using Gimp. Translatable.
Requested by MissAdventure.
I am SO sorry that it has taken me so long to post this! I know it's not the best recreation, but I hope it's close enough.
Open and prep image/base (crop, scale, etc.). I'm using a base by spareoom.net
Duplicate the base layer and go to Colors>Auto>White Balance. Set that layer to Screen at 100%.
Duplicate that layer and set it to Screen at 100%.
Duplicate that layer and set it to Soft Light at 100%. Add a layer mask, copy and paste the background layer into it.
Add a fill layer of color #2a1409, set it to Subtract at 100%.
Flatten your image.
Duplicate the base layer and go to Colors>Components>Channel Mixer and input these settings...
Red channel: +120, -40, +10.
Green channel: -10, +50, +70.
Blue channel: -40, +50, +100.
Make sure that Preserve Luminosity is checked. Click ok.
With that same layer selected, go back to Channel Mixer, don't change any of the settings, just click 'ok'.
Now, set that layer to Screen at 100%. Add a layer mask, copy and paste the background layer into it. Now invert the layer mask.
Add a fill layer of color #ffffff, set it on Soft Light at 75%. Add a layer mask, copy and paste the background layer into it. Now invert the layer mask. (I may have left this layer mask off, but I'm not sure. Do whatever looks right for your image)
Add a fill layer of color #2a1409, set it to Screen at 100%.
Add a fill layer of color #2a1409, set it to Soft Light at 50%.
Flatten your image.
Go to Colors>Levels and enter these settings...
Blue Channel: (Output) 40, 225.
Click 'ok'.
Now, go to Colors>Levels again, and enter these settings...
Value Channel: (Input) 11, .93, 235.
Blue Channel: (Input) 0, 1, 241. (Output) 0, 250.
Click 'ok'.
If you have more than one layer at this point, flatten your image.
Go to Filters>Enhance>Sharpen, and sharpen it to your liking.
I then slightly blurred the background so the Pevensie's would stand out a bit more.
I currently have this:
After that, I added some light textures and some text (the font is Georgia), and I was done!
I ended up with this:
You're done!
Please let me know if you have any questions!
Please do not copy exactly.

Re: Fan Art Tutorials
Tutorial #1 (on the new forum)
Going from this: to this: , recreating this:
Requested by lover of narnia.
For Photoshop, may be translatable.
1. Duplicate your base layer and set to screen.
2. Duplicate the base layer again and bring it to the top. Set it to soft light.
3. Flatten image. Duplicate the layer and go to Image>Adjust> Auto Levels. Set that layer to soft light, opacity 25%.
4. Duplicate the base layer again and go to Image> Adjust> Auto Levels. Set this layer's opacity to 50%.
5. Flatten image. Blur her skin at an opacity of 50% or so.
6. Make a new color balance layer:
Midtones: +3 -4 -6
7. Flatten image. Make a new layer, and set it to color burn. Paint over her lips with #CE5E69 with the paintbrush at a low opacity. This makes her lips darker. (I saw this in one of Wunderkind_Lucy's tutorials)
And that's basically it! I just painted a circle of #FA0E30 near the side of the image and added some text.
Feel free to PM me if you have any questions

Re: Fan Art Tutorials
Tutorial #24: How to get this: From this:
Requested by lover of narnia.
The technique in this tutorial was borrowed from the second tutorial here.
Open your base, crop, scale, etc.
Duplicate the base layer, add a transparent layer, fill it with #9f8ba6, set it on Value (Luminosity on some programs) at 100% opacity.
Merge the layer down and set the merged layer on Overlay at 100%.
Below that layer, duplicate the base layer twice and set the first one (the lowest one) on Screen at 65% and the other one on Overlay at 75%.
Flatten.
Duplicate the base layer again, go to Colors>Hue-Saturation and set the Master saturation to +20, the BLue to +100 (I'm not sure if the blue made much of a difference on this particular icon, but I did it anyway...habit).
Add a layer of #ffffff, set on Overlay at 100%. Add a layer mask, copy (Ctrl+C) and paste (Ctrl+V) the background layer into it, then invert the mask.
A layer of #7ebbf4 on Burn at 75%. Add a layer mask to this layer as well, copy and paste the base into it and invert it.
Merge all of you layers together, (then duplicate, if you like) go to Hue-Saturation again: Master +5. Blue +75. Red +5.
Sharpen the image and blur the face, if you like. Add anything else you feel like, then you're done!
Enjoy!
If you have any questions, send me a PM.
