1. Crop the picture. I didn't sharpen yet, but if you want, to go right ahead.
2. Now duplicate the base one time and set it too Screen 100%. But it all really depends on how dark your image is.
3. Now for Hue/Saturation Layer.
Set Saturation to +40. Again, it all depends on your image. So if 40 looks funny, don't use it. It's just common sense.
4. Create a new layer and fill it with ffef37. Set it to Soft Light 30%
5. Time for Selective Coloring.
Reds: -100, +24, +100, 0
Yellows: -28, +36, -19, 0
Neutrals: +40, -13, -30, -10
6. Time for another selective coloring layer.
Reds: -26, +22, +25, 0
Yellows: +100, +8, -37, 0
Neutrals: +17, 0, -8, 0
7.After all this was when I sharpened the icon.
Then add some brushes, text, textures, whatever for your icon, and if you need to, change the opacity settings and the settings for the selective colring/color balance as well so it goes with your icon. Again, common sense.
