1, open the tutorial material in Photoshop. The 60 's Lichtensteinbouf art is today's creative theme, so be careful to trim the photo, and then the photo will look like a close-up of the person's face. Select the Move tool in the toolbar, and then create a selection around the face of Tuzhong, which includes the part where she picks up the phone for subsequent authoring.

2, in the menu bar to select "Image > Cropping", the picture cut well. Then create a new document with a size of 11*9 inch and a resolution of 150dpi. Because pictures are saved with high resolution, they don't lose too much quality. But if you create in AI, you can completely avoid the problem of the quality loss.

3. Copy and paste the picture you just cropped, then press ctrl+t, then shift to resize the picture proportionally.

4, create a new layer above the picture, select the Pen tool, make sure you check the path options, and then create the path as shown below. Create a path line manually, and keep track of the details of the image.

5, then right-click to select Build path, and then use the Paint bucket tool to fill the selection with black.

6, in the drawing path can be filled immediately, this can save a little time. Continue to create lines along the image and set the line width according to different images.

7, continue the above work, until the character of all the lines drawn complete. The details of the hair should follow the direction of the hair, while the black part can enhance the texture or shadow effect.

8. Create a new layer group below the line path layer. Create a new layer in the layer group to fill the skin color. Select the Pen tool, then carefully draw the path along the face and hand, and then create the path to fill the naked color f9b88c.

9. Next, you need to make pop art-specific class-wear points (ben-day dot). Open a new document, set the size to 100*100 pixels, and use the brush tool to draw red in the white background center. Select Edit > Custom pattern in the main menu bar, and then enter a new name. So you can create a new pattern.

10. Copy face base layer. Then right click on the copied layer and select blending options. Check the pattern overlay, select the red dot pattern just created. Set opacity to 25%, size to 15%. Now the design work is starting to feel like a pop.

11, select the Pen tool again, and then, as in the previous practice, the hair, lips, eyes, nose, telephone and background and so on are painted path and then fill the color. Color attention to choose more bright, this can show the pop art style.

12, below, we add a modern point of the color method. Create a new layer above the line layer. Then select the Gradient tool, select the preset foreground color to transparent (opacity is 20%), and then pull the gradient effect to the upper-right corner of the lower-left corner. This will make the color more saturated. Adjusts the opacity of the gradient layer to 74%.

13. Add new layers to design the high light. Select the radial gradient tool to set the foreground color of the gradient color to white. Then design a white radial gradient image. Here you need to pay attention to the design of the high light direction.

14. Create bubbles that show the content of the conversation below. Select the bubble shape in the Custom Shape toolbar, and then drag to create the bubble shape. Then select the Pen tool to draw the path. The brush hardness selected here is 100% and the size is 15 pixels. In the state of choosing a pen, create a selection and fill the bubble with white.

One last step. is to add text to the Bubble dialog box. Here the author adds gothic font text. You can add when you are experimenting. The final effect is as follows:
