Sarah Michelle Gellar Icon Tutorial!
We're going...
From
to
with PS ^^ (I use CS but can be used with lower versions)
Hi! This is my first icon tutorial, so I hope I can explain everything quite well, all the resources (textures, indeed) are by colorfilter.
-First of all chose an image, crop it to 100x100 px. and then go to Filter>Sharpen>Sharpen
-After that, new layer (Ctrl+Shift+N), Color #994842, Blend Mode: Lighten, Opacity 100%.
-New layer, with the gradient made with #994842 & #E3BD6D, Multiply, 100%
-Now, use this texture made by colorfilter, Overlay, 100%. Then, go to Edit>Transform>Flip Horizontal. Erase a bit over Sarah's face with a soft round brush, opacity 50%.
-Other texture by colorfilter, Difference, 20%.
-And another texture by colorfilter, this is the last one I promise, set to Soft Light, 80%.
-Now the face looks a little strange, remember your base? duplicate it, move to top and set it to Soft Light, 100%. Now add some text, I used 18th Century. You can play around with colors and size ;).
-And that's it!! Any questions? Suggestions? Comments?
