Tutorial # 06 - Loveless (PSP7+)

[soulspring]

It's been forever and a day since I wrote a tutorial. Since I'm so in love with this icon, I thought I'd write one for it. Even though I've given a step-by-step guide, try not to copy it like that. Add in something I didn't use; use this to inspire your own thing.

Before
After







STEP 01: Find your image and crop however you want.



STEP 02: Apply this blue as an exclusion layer.


~~~~~>

STEP 03: Apply this texture at screen 100% or whichever opacity works for you. This is really two textures, one made by jougen_no_tsuki, the other by indienotebook.


~~~~~>

STEP 04: Create a new hue/saturation adjustment layer and set saturation to -100. Blend mode overlay @ 100% or w/e you want.



STEP 05: Apply this texture by onlyabreath on multiply 100%.


~~~~~>

STEP 06: Set this scratch texture by ink_swirls to screen. I set mine at 100%.


~~~~~>

STEP 07: Copy the backround and bring it all the way to the stop and set it to soft light.



STEP 08: Next is this texture by alterna666 @ deviantart on screen. I duplicated it three times to make it more visible.


~~~~~>

STEP 09: Last is this light texture by millepetit, set at lighten.


~~~~~>

After that add whatever text you might want. Or don't add text. Up to you.

Again, please don't follow this exactly. Definitely experiment, and show me your creations!
