Tutorial for [info]elanordh.

From this to this  =) Using PS 7.0

This tutorial was requested by my wonderful lj friend [info]elanordh (check out her amazing tut over here). Hope this helps!

 The icon itself is simple to make, however I do not tell you where to find the tools we will be using

(I presume most of you know where they are) so it might be a bit challenging for beginners. If you are confused about anything, feel free to ask!

Base was created using a picture from

arwen-undomiel

 

First go to Filter-> sharpen-> sharpen. Then Image->  adjustments->  auto colour. Image-> adjustments-> auto levels.   Filter-> sharpen-> unsharpen mask (amount 48, radius 1, thres. 0)

Now, take the blur tool, set your brush to 8 px. with blurred edges, strength 50% and go over her skin (not her eyes or lips)

Take the Sharpen tool, brush size 8, strength 50%. Go over her lips twice, and click several times on her pupil.

 

Duplicate layer, set to screen, opacity 47%.

 

Duplicate again, desaturate, and set to soft light, opacity 100%

 

New layer. Fill with 05112F, and set to exclusion opacity 49%

 

New layer, fill with D0A17A and set to multiply, opacity 45%

 

Copy the base layer and set it to hard light, opacity 87%, above all the other layers.

 

Take this light texture, (created by -please let me know) flip it, and turn it to lighten, opacity 26%.

 

Take this light texture, created by colorfilter. Flip it, set it to lighten opacity 52%

Flip this texture created by -please let me know), and set it to lighten, opacity 52%



 
Now you can stop if you are happy with the icon, or you can create the tear effect. Merge all the layers. Take the burn tool, with a brush of 1 px. exposure 50% and draw a line with it. Erase some parts of it so it doesn't look fake. Take the sharpening tool with a 6 px. brush and go over the line. (exposure 50% again)

And we are done! =) Please share icons you have created using this tutorial, I'd love to see what you come up with  ^_^

</span> And if you like my work, don't hesitate and friend me =)

Hon, I made something following your wonderful tutorial :) I had to "cheat" a little bit, because I don't have every tool in PaintShopPro (I use this program). It will be a part of my 100 icons :D But I think I'll show you this now, to spare you (and me) this long waiting ;) lol (I'm very slowly with my set ;) )
I hope you like it ;)

This is a fantastic tutorial and a beautiful icon *adds to memories*! You've inspired me since I'm having an icon block at the moment so thank you so much. I'll post what I come up with soon. Also just to see if it's alright to use your light textures? I'll credit you of course.

[info]_hushed_art

February 1 2006, 19:12:29 UTC 6 years ago

Thank you very much, I am glad you find it fanastic since your icons are really fabulous =) I can't wait to see your work! :D
The light textures are not mine, and unfortunately I can't remember from whom exactly I got the from (even though one of them is colorfilter) but I am sure it will be ok if you use them. (the makers are located somewhere on my resource page, I'll try to locate the makers)
Have fun dear =)

The tutorial's wonderful--beautiful effect, and easy to follow, even for someone stuck with Photoshop 2.0. Still, I've saved it to memories, and created this icon with it (though using different fill colors--dark green instead of dark blue, and a more yellowish tan than the one prescribed). Thank you so much.

[info]_hushed_art

April 5 2006, 14:15:45 UTC 6 years ago

Thank you very much, that was the point of the tut, I am glad you could follow through easily =) I have to try it with different colours also, it worked out really well on yours!

This is an awesome tutorial! =D Thanks for sharing!

I changed a lot of things, though. I wanted to know whether this looked like a tear or not 'cause I am so not sure. XD Don't be afraid to be honest!



I realize that no one's commented since May... But I only discovered this tutorial recently! =P Thanks again.

[info]_hushed_art

June 26 2006, 20:16:00 UTC 5 years ago

Thank you! I am happy you found it useful =)I love the tear! It doesnt stand out that much and it looks natural =) Perhaps going over it once more wouldn't hurt, but I like it a lot ;)

Hi. This is an awesome tut. Will definitely try it out.
Did have a question though (as I am new to PS). When you talk about the Sharpen Tool and Burn Tool - where exactly is that tool?
Thanks.

[info]_hushed_art

The tools are on the side in the main menu.. I am sure if you look at some screencaps you can find it labeled, I such at explaining *blushes*
