Billie Joe Armstrong pop art Tutorial

Go from this to



I picked this picture because it has a fairly solid background. I dont know what it would turn out like if you didnt have a solid background, but I dont think it would be that good...

Open the picture, and use the magic eraser til you get this
(the grey bits are transparent on my comp..)

Next, open a new document at 500x500

Then take a tiny text brush, make it really small and scribble all over the blank document. (YEAH I FOUND ANOTHER USE FOR TINY TEXT!)




Next, I copied the Billie Joe pic as a new layer. Then go to Blending Options>Stroke White, 5px.




Theres a little bit of white there so I erased it.

ALL THESE LAYERS ARE UNDERNEATH THE IMAGE LAYER
Next I cropped it
, and created a new layer and put this gradient in
, and set it to exclusion, 100%.



Then I created another new layer on top of the exclusion layer, used this gradient
, and set it to colour burn.



I took this brush
by meleada, and set it to soft light 100%.



Next,create a new layer and use this brush
also by meleadaat normal, in black.



Next, take this brush
by gender (it was supposed to be transparent :P)in #054579, and set it to exclusion.



All resources not credited are still credited in my resources, but I just dont remember who's who's.

If that makes any sense..... -.-

This is just a suggestion, you dont need to copy it exactly. BE CREATIVE
