Using PS Splash brush to increase the scattering effect of portrait

There are many ways to break the effect, and a very practical method is described below. Process: To separate the characters and backgrounds, the background needs to be repaired intact; then the characters copied a layer, with liquefaction and other tools deformation treatment, the amplitude is a bit larger; Finally, add a layer mask to the original image, paint some blank particles with a splash brush, add a black mask to the copy, and paint the fluid effect with a white brush.

　　Final effect

1, open the material picture in the Photoshop cs6/cc.

2. Double-click the layer in the layers panel to eject the new Layer dialog box. This will be used when we hide the background layer later.

3, set the "New Layer" dialog, click OK, you can convert the background to a layer.

4, use the Polygon Lasso tool to roughly select the text content in the "people".

5. After selecting the text, click "Shift+f5" or "Edit > Fill" in the menu bar, and select "Content Recognition (aware)". Content recognition is very easy to use Ah, you PS users can be a lot of research. When set, click OK.

6. Next, we use the same method to deal with the curtains in the "people" material.

9. Here, we use the Polygon lasso tool to pull the characters out of the background. It's not a matter of being rough when you're doing part of the hair, because we don't change the background.

After making selections, click Ctrl+j to create a new duplicate layer that contains only the selections we have just selected.

Click CTRL on the new layer to load the layer into the selection.

10, select the first layer, and then click Delete, you can remove the characters from the background. In this step, we have a total of two layers in the layer panel, the top layer is the Polygon lasso tool selected and copied the character layer, the following layer is the background to pull out.

11. Here, we mainly deal with the hair of the characters. In the previous operation, we have a lot of space between the hair and the background, so it will be more convenient to deal with.

Creates a new layer between the foreground and the background. Use the Fill tool (Shift+f5 or edit > Fill) to fill the entire new layer with black. This will focus our attention on the hair thread.

12, select the foreground image and select the Background Eraser tool.

Click on the alt/option and use a white background sample to click in the white area between the hairs. Remove the background color of the sample after finishing the remaining hair.

Repeat this process until the new field of sampling has removed most of the white background, leaving only the white "blur". Without affecting the hair, use the normal eraser tool to remove as much ambiguity as possible. The effect chart is as follows. Finally, remove the black layer and use it back to the original background.

13, hide the character layer, show the background layer.

Select the missing area using the polygonal lasso tool. Use the Content-aware tool (Edit > Fill or Shift+f5) to populate the missing parts. When the fill is complete, click Ctrl+d to cancel the selection.

14, select the foreground layer and ctrl+j to make a copy, where we should have two copies of the foreground layer. Select the foreground layer that you copied first (the layer should be in the middle). Choose Liquefaction from the Filter menu and open the Liquefaction dialog box, using the Forward transform tool.

15, choose a large brush (larger than the head of the character), the point of hair to the Zola extension. If it seems strange, don't worry, because only a small part of the layer will show up.

16, you are satisfied with the tensile effect, you can click OK.

17. Add a layer mask to the liquefied layer and fill the layer mask with black. The top layer also adds a layer mask, but this time the layer mask is filled with white.

18, select the top layer and layer mask, if you forget to select the mask layer, the effect will not be the effect we want.

Open the Brush panel and select the brush from the brush panel. If you do not have a splash brush installed, go to the Internet to download some splash brush, and then import into PS. Select one of the splash brushes you like in the installation.

19, finally modify the brush size and direction, so that it meets our needs (horizontal from right to left).

Make sure that your brush (black) is painted on the mask layer, when dealing with the area around the head, you should also be careful to modify the brush size, style and so on, so that it presents a natural splash effect.

In this process, especially the need for patience and time, with sufficient patience and carefulness, and to achieve the desired results. It also requires a lot of attention to the right side of the eyes and face, because the splash effect we want is to splash from right to left. If the right face splash too much, you can choose the ordinary white brush on the mask smear, thereby removing the effect you do not want.

20, in the next step, we want to repeat the above steps in the middle of the deformation layer, but do not apply black, here we use white to show the layer.

Select the middle layer and the mask layer. Change the brush color to white and place the scatter in the previous area. Smear in the previously deformed area. To make it appear, and ultimately to render the entire image a cool dispersion effect.

Final effect:
