Beach Bungalow Tutorial
This is a tutorial for the "Beach Bungalow" icon that I made. gabez_iconz asked about it over at icon_tutorial. So this tutorial is for her and of course anyone else who wants to try it. :)
The icon was made was made using Photoshop CS2, with two adjustment layers...Color Balance and Selective Color. I also used some fill colors I got from another tutorial which I don't have the link to right now because I haven't transferred all my bookmarked tutorials over here to my new computer yet. So I don't remember who the tutorial was by. Sorry.
We are going from this picture of a little bungalow on the beach to
.
First crop your picture however you want. I cropped mine like this.
Really it's pretty straight forward and simple, so I'm just going to list the layers and what I did in each one. There is also a link to a graphic of the layers at the end.
Duplicate the base twice and set both layers to screen at 100% opacity.
New Layer, #ffdab5, set to multiply at 100% opacity
Next is an Adjustment Layer>Color Balance
Midtones -23, -13, -28
Set to normal at 100% opacity
New layer, #e69f6a, linear burn, 15% opacity
New layer, #ffcccc, overlay, 40% opacity
New layer, #ffcccc, color burn, 25% opacity
New layer. #fff3dd, color burn, 100% opacity
New layer, #f4ffd6, linear burn, 30% opacity
New Adjustment Layer>Selective Color
Greens - cyan +2, magenta -79, yellow +73
Cyans - cyan -100, magenta +100, yellow -1, black +12
Neutrals - cyan +100, magenta -8, yellow -19
set to normal at 100% opacity
Make a new layer, then Alt + Ctrl + Shift + E...in that order, it will make a copy of all the previous layers.
Set this layer to Soft Light, 75% opacity
And you're done.
You might want to play around with the colors or even leave some out. You know, just experiment.
