PS Hollywood movie poster tutorial "Assassin's Bullet"

Final effect:

First build a 1600*1100,72 resolution of the black background, dragged into a Nimliensen in the "Hurricane Rescue" in the stills, adjust the size and position this is a very good film.

Continue to place a picture of Moscow Red Square and adjust it.

This sky is a bit false, have so blue day? In order to take care of life in the celestial bar friends mood, I must put the color of the sky closer to our real living environment, I found a not so fake, and some white clouds of the sky, put it in the red Square below the floor.

Separate display of Red Square, in the channel to copy the Blue channel, with the color level and brush processing, most of the students to use the channel to dig this craft is already handy, needless to say.

Press CTRL + the left mouse button in the blue channel copy to copy the selection and add a mask on the Red Square layer.

Continue to add a picture of the Stars and Stripes of the US empire.

Placed in starring Anthony Hopkins.

Resize and position, and then add a mask, rough strokes.

Hold down SHIFT and click on the mask thumbnail to hide the mask, display the starring Anthony Hopkins separately, copy the red channel in the channel, and use the color order to first move the hair out of the head. It feels like this three channels are almost the same, there is no obvious contrast to the channel.

Copy a selection in a layer mask with only the top part of the head. Because the other place black and white is not very clear, so do not deal with them.

Continue copying the red channel, using the color bands to display the hair on both sides, and copy the selection to trim in the mask.

After many adjustments to the channel, Hopkins's hair could go through.

Add a mask to the Star-Spangled Banner to make it fit into Red Square and the sky.

The sky, of course, must also have a mask transition.

Finally, the Nimliensen mask.

After all the material is positioned, I want to do some color fine-tuning, in the Red Square of the mask above a few strokes, so that the bottom darker.

Add a natural saturation to reduce the overall saturation.

To Red Square clip mask a "brightness contrast" adjustment layer, let Red Square also dark down.

Saturation is still too high, to reduce a little, a little bit of color, is not pure black and white.

Hopkins was a bit "grey", so I added a "brightness contrast" to the contrast, which was very high and a little bit brighter. Let his light and shade be commensurate with Nimliensen.

I continued to use an "optional color" to get Hopkins's complexion closer to Nimliensen.

Give Nimliensen a curve, let him dark behind, as if just opened the door in the same.

A car that burns violently after an explosion.

Add a mask with a brush to sketch out on the line, almost do not have to dig carefully, this figure is actually not easy to pull.

Use a picture of smoke to increase the atmosphere.

Adjust the direction of the smoke chart, change the blending mode to "multiply the bottom", and strengthen it with the color bands.

Add a mask.

Brush strokes Some of the explosion of scattered debris, in fact, not scientific ah, smoke is rising so high, the explosion of debris how to fly out? Anyway, look at the happy on the line.

Create a new layer and set the layer blending mode to "color Dodge." Use an orange brush to stop the vehicle and railing around the site of the explosion to describe the effect of the simulated flare map.

Creates a new 1600*1600 canvas.

Create a new layer and hold down shift with the smaller brush to draw a vertical line.

Filters-style-wind, with the smallest wind, to the left and right are indifferent, one more execution.

Select the side of the long hair with a rectangular marquee.

Ctrl+j copy a layer, delete the original layer underneath.

Ctrl+alt+t, set the center point at the right anchor point and replicate horizontally.

Combine these two layers, rotate 90 degrees, and move to about one-fifth of the positions below.

Filters-skew-polar coordinates-plane coordinates to polar coordinates.

In the end I get a circle of long hairs similar to the original image, and it's important to use filters properly.

Just now I omitted to mention a step that should be to copy the merged layer to a layer of standby. Here, adjust the shape with the deformation, the emphasis is to have a little arc below the top.

Enlarge the canvas by 150%. Arrange horizontal and vertical guides with two centers, move one end of this furry thing to the intersection of the guides, ctrl+alt+t, move the center point to the intersection of the guides, and merge vertically after the line.

Continue ctrl+alt+t, the rotation 90 degrees after the merger.

Below do the outer dial, do a rectangular shape figure, size by oneself visual.

Ctrl+alt+t, set the center point at the intersection of the reference line, rotate 10 degrees.

Ctrl+shift+alt+t constantly copy, to One-fourth is almost enough.

Put this group of graphics together, copy one layer, ctrl+alt+t, the center point also set at the intersection of the reference line, rotating 2 degrees.

Ctrl+alt+shift+t completes a loop.

Pull a circular shape with the "subtract" pattern at the center of the reference line, so that part of the dial is deleted.

Using the "Add" and "subtract" modes alternately to make two circles outside, this is simpler.

When finished, pack them all into groups, copy them to the poster, resize and position them, rotate 15 degrees.

Open the group, change the Circle and Dial layer blending mode to "overlay", the transparency of the circle and Cross of the long hair to 57%, add a mask to do some masking, and then add a photo filter.

Get!
