First Tutorial

[char_cohen]

So here is a tutorial....its not EXACTLY the same as the icon I posted but its the best I could do.

Go from this
to this


As requested by twistedlaletz :)



Sharpen your cap & then size & crop it:


Duplicate layer & screen (60% opacity)


New selective layer: Curves: RGB: 68,115:


New fill layer: #d0471e (soft light 10% opacity)


Color Balance: Midtones - +8,-12,-16:


New Selective Color:

Reds: -100,0,+100,0
Yellows:-10,0,-20,0
Greens:+100,+100,+100,0
Neutrals:+20,+5,+15,0
Blacks:0,0,0,+100

New fill layer:#dbe7bc (color burn 30%)


Duplicate base layer bring it to the top & set to soft light:


New fill layer:#ffb400 (soft light 10%)


That's it done, you've gone from this
to this


I sometimes add another fill layer #e1e0e0 (linear burn 100%) it adds something to the icon!!!


And that's it!!
