Photoshop-clear, clean and transparent character skin tutorial

The effect is fresh to the end of the Post tutorial! This kind of skin color is now very popular character effect, of course, the great God of his mountain eyes students are not only the method, but also can extrapolate of the later ideas, like friends to learn together.

Original artwork:

The following is a later analysis:

@ His mountain eyes: This late stage is very representative, because it has no obvious "routines."

No low light compression features, no obvious HDR traces, no obvious black-and-black, no obvious light effect.

In fact, this latter period is a typical "late experience."

What does that mean? The latter was won by color.

For example, the color of human skin, retro color and the overall tone.

But the color of this thing can not quantify, the previous period of the black and Blue Platinum controversy also highlights the human brain's subjective consciousness will also affect the color recognition system.

This color we call "wax skin", because the late features of this skin is to suppress red, improve the yellow, so that people's face does not look any color, as to whether it is like, the problem is very subjective, the individual or more like the ruddy skin.

First look at a group of pictures:

If you do not have a rich palette experience, how to convert color you will not know.

Let me show you some basic knowledge:

Generally speaking, the skin of the human body in the natural light to shoot out are red, this is the natural color of people, unless through some special treatment. The main factors affecting skin color are: ambient light and white balance.

The former is determined by the environment in which the latter is determined by the machine preset.

We look at this picture, the picture is red obvious, skin color is obviously abnormal.

How do you fix this color bias?

I'm here to introduce a very important color adjustment combination:

Red

Green Plus

Magenta unchanged

Yellow Plus

Black minus

What does that mean?

The graphic language is:

This color adjustment combination in correcting the red color bias, adjust the "wax skin", adjust the skin permeability of the above has a very important role.

Only using the above parameters, you can achieve this effect, if combined with masks, curves, selections and other tools, can make very beautiful skin effects.

Let me give you a detailed description of this color combination:

Cyan: If the result of Cyan appears to be the color of skin in favor of zombies (it is hard to find a good adjective –-!)

Reducing the cyan can make the face appear more ruddy.

Magenta: The effect of this color is extreme, it will allow the skin to show an unhealthy state, Gayangong will make the skin appear red color bias, reducing magenta will make the skin show a sallow feeling.

Yellow: Red can make the skin color is red, minus yellow will make skin color Purple, it's more soft effect.

Black: Black will make the skin permeability reduced, reduce the black can improve the skin permeability degree.

Concrete effect You can use the above picture a lot of try.

Let's look at a picture again:

This picture compared to the previous one, there is no obvious color deviation, skin color is very normal.

Let's take a look at this:

By using this color combination, we obviously weaken the red expression in the picture (the Orange of the Sun can also be adjusted in red color), the human skin appears to be clean a lot, showing the wax-colored skin.

Contrast color:

OK, this color combination is just the first repair, then you can also use masks, selections, curves and other tools to further adjust, I will not expand.

This is the adjustment of skin color, of course, these pictures of the skin color is not exactly the same, and some partial yellow, some white, the general method.

There is the color deviation of the picture.

This is actually very good observation.

Color adjustment The most difficult place is because the base color is different, the path to achieve the result color is different, there is no standard answer.

In the absence of the base color, I can not guarantee that a color adjustment method can achieve the purpose.

I offer a common solution here:

Yellow

Green reduction

Magenta minus

Yellow minus

Black Plus

Graphic languages are:

Actually this is very good to remember, I generally remember as "<" color. Because its buoy shape is similar to less than the symbol, this can be used to simulate film color.

But as noted above, color and base colors have a lot to do with, so the scope of application is limited.

After the color deviation is the overall tone, this main warm tone, curve Ah, photo filter ah, layer Ah, can be done out, will not unfold.

And then you add the film particles.

Sometimes the pictures we've processed don't look soft enough and lack a sense of obscurity.

The effect of this kind of picture is very soft:

I introduced the overestimation before: "PS Master Tutorial!" to teach you to easily create the effect of beauty to the lighting effect of the explosion

But what's different here today is that I used a filter blending mode.

Today I use another blending mode: lighten

Brightening the blending mode makes the screen lighter, but not as strong as the filter mode, which means that it can make the screen appear hazy, but not become too bright and lose details.

It's very similar to the light blending mode, but there's a small difference between the two, in short, the brightening mode produces new colors, and the light mode doesn't produce new colors, so the lighting mode is more natural.

Therefore, the complete steps for the whole are:

First of all, the picture overall contrast, brightness adjustment, the skin color treatment into wax skin.

Adjust the color bias, use all kinds of integrated color software or adjust yourself.

Stamped layer, adjust the overall tone (curve method, layer method, photo filter method, Mixed mode method, etc.).

Plus film particles.

Add a sense of obscurity to your needs, and adjust the saturation as needed.

About the color adjustment This together, I strive in the paper version from late to late to improve it, but it is very difficult, because the color of this thing is difficult to quantify.
