LaVey Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Hi folks! This is my first post, so please forgive me if I've posted in the wrong place, asked a previously-asked question or broken any forum rules. I couldn't find what I was looking for after searching. Anyways, I'd really love to know if this colouring effect is possible, and how they've blended it all? I don't have the original image unfortunately. Thanks in advance! p.s. Great site! I've gained huge insights just visiting over the last few months, so thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishi Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Yes its possible. I'd imagine black and white image of a face then create an empty layer on top of it. On this empty layer, manually paint the areas of the face with different colors, using a really soft brush. Apply a Gaussian blur to improve the color blending then change the blending mode of that layer. Something like Multiply or maybe Color Dodge will do. I guess you'll have to see it for yourself.

MadJik Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Mini tuto: I started with the idea of @Ishi With more time and work the result could be better. It's also important how the face takes the light on the original picture. Originale picture Model Gradient layer Smoke layer (secondary color : transparent) Final image You could add some dark areas in the gradient layer to make some parts darker. 1 3 Quote My DeviantArt | My Pictorium | My Plugins | Donate via Paypal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ishi Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Some simple and effective technique there Madjik. Great results on PDN without the complicated masks like some would do on Photoshop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
