    The Haxxor Effect!

    in Beginner Tutorials

    Posted · Edited by Dr. Agon

    Anyways, at least you have a picture Dr. Agon..I know you wanted it so bad.

    Yay!!! :lol:

    That was good, but it needs more... pizazz. You nailed the effect, but there's no text or anything. The way you did it would probably work better for a buisness card anyway. I'm glad my tutorial is being used for kewl stuff like that :D

    hey guys i was wondering if anyone could make me a logo... if so get back to my via email <snip> thanks guys :)

    Um, sorry, but I don't think this is the place for it.

    Phantom, that's cool, but it just looks like a human wearing a suit. I was trying to go for like an "abstract art" feel XD

    Chaos, nice job, but the top of the picture is kinda cut off.

    Other than that, good jobs! BTW, here's the first pic that started it all :P

    Outline Object

    This is my first tutorial so please bear with me. My first few post on the forum have been noobish, so this is kinda my way of redeeming myself šŸ˜‰

    Hello! Today Iā€™ll be showing you how transform a person intoā€¦ THIS!

    Ā 

    1

    Ā 

    Start off with your photo, Iā€™ll be using this:

    2

    You can sharpen it or something, for good measure. BoltBaitā€™s plugin works well. Just make it look good. This technuiqeworks to background around the image transparent. It doesnā€™t have to be exact. I used. Hereā€™s what mine looked like.

    3

    Now for the fun part. Use the magic wand to select the transparent part, then invert the selection (Cntrl + I). Use the effect Seismograph and deleselect ā€œuse colors from the source image.ā€ Play with the options till it looks good. Hereā€™s what mine looked like:

    4

    If you want to make the lines a different color, use Sepia (or Sepia 2 if you have it). Then, use Hue/Saturation to get a good color. Hereā€™s what mine looked like now:

    5

    Then, use Soften Portrait and play with that ā€˜till youā€™re happy. If you think itā€™s a little dark, use glow. Hereā€™s what mine looked like now:

    6

    Then, well, you can do what you want for the background here, but I usasually do a circle Gradiant with a different color, as shown:

    7

    Now for the text. Make a layer with a futuristic font, and text of your choice in the color you used for the gradiant. Iā€™m using Planet Kosmos here. You can make the text look good (I used Outline Object and Soften Portrait.) Duplicate the layer. Now, use Hue/Saturation to make the text the color you made the Seismograph. Then, use a transparency gradiant to complete the effect, as shown.

    8

    Thatā€™s it, youā€™re done! Feel free to add some other effects as you go (I used a water reflection thing.) Let your imagination run wild. You donā€™t have to do this on just humans! Please post results and feedback!
