House Tut
Hello all! I've been lurking for a while, and decided that, why not, I'd post a tutorial!
This is my first tutorial ever, so if you don't understand something, just tell me, and I'll see if I can fix it =]
--->
First off, crop your base to 100x100. You can duplicate and set to screen if the image is too dark. What I did with mine, was:
1. Duplicate background 3 times and set to screen 100% each.
2. Curves layer (layer>>New adjustment layer>>Curves).
RGB
Point 1 - I: 80 ; O: 77
Point 2 - I: 129 ; O: 138
Blue
I: 100 ; O: 112
3. Selective Color.
Red: 50 /0 /0 /16
Green: 100 / -100 / -100 / 0
Cyan: 100 / -100 / -100 / 0
Blue: 100 / -100 / -100 / 0
White: 0 / 0 / 0 / 25
Neutrals: 50 / 10 / 0 / 5
4. Fill new layer with color #192041. Set to exclusion 100%.
5. Slective Color:
R: -100 / 0 / 0 / -10
C: 100 / -51 / -100 / 68
B: 100 / -100 / 0 / 0
N: 0 / 10 / 10 / 5
6. Hue/Saturation layer. Set Master > Saturation: 10
7. Levels Layer.
RGB
I: 18 / 1,55 / 255
O: 0 / 255
Red
I: 47 / 1.66 / 255
O: 0 / 255
8. Color Balance Layer.
Shadows: 10 / -9 / 12
Highlights: -11 / 12 / 10
(check Preserve Luminosity)
And that's it!
Remember that not all icons will look good with this settings. you can fiddle around with them, which ever suits your icon better =]
I'd love some comments and to see your outcomes!
Thank you!
Done in Photoshop CS. Involves selective coloring and levels.
Not sure if it's Translatable.
