PS Deceitful Act make a giraffe with knotted necks

The focus of the tutorial is the production of knotted parts, not very difficult, but to be good at independent thinking, find the right way. The author uses the material directly in the knot section, then pastes the skin of the giraffe on the material surface, then handles the color and the detail.

Final effect

1, open the background map, looking at the big desert is not a little angry, and even the effect of the picture is not a bit overwhelmed. It's good to have me (laugh ...) we just need a part of the line, shortcut C crop part of the following figure.

2, the next second to become noble, using a gradient map, have not heard? Let's see how I do it.

The basic principle of a gradient map is to apply a gradient to the image based on the black and white range of the original. The left side of the gradient is reflected in the shaded section, and the right side is reflected in the high light.

So will get the above color, we try this magic key, they can use other colors to see the picture changes. It's funny.

Have you found that the picture is a bit too bright, the details of the original artwork some loss.

3. Create a new black and white adjustment layer on the background layer, the parameters are set as follows. Everyone should not be the same as I set, because the mapping is to do according to their own needs, pull the slider you can also find a value for their own.

4, on all layers of a new transparent layer, with a large fillet soft brush point A bright spot, the layer mode set to soft light, if you feel the effect, reduce the opacity of the layer, my is 62%.

5, in order to facilitate management, here will these several layers into a group, first copy the background layer ctrl+j (locked background layer can not be grouped with other layers) Select 4 layers, and then ctrl+g can be grouped together.
