The production of ancient charm pictures needs a deeper foundation, first of all, to have a certain understanding of ancient culture. And then collect some ancient elements of material for synthesis. The synthesis also includes two important parts: background and character. Background as far as possible with classical elements to decorate, to control the light sense. The character part may add the classical make-up, the partial can decorate some decorations and so on to enrich the picture. Finally adjust the overall color and details can be.
Original
| 1, before adjusting the original film, we first need to repair the original film, The face (mainly skin parts), for the modification of the defect, (mainly through the Imitation Stamp tool), this supplement relatively simple, after the repair film, we need to make a tone of the picture adjustment, the use of color order (CTRL+L), A slight adjustment to the brightness and contrast of the image, so that the figure is not too gray. The results and adjustment parameters are set as follows: When you are working on this step to achieve the character's contrast, the size of the color scale depends on the extent of the picture, adjust to the brightest area of the photo not to be exposed (the image of the brightest area is mainly white background and character skin, because this piece we need to replace the background, so here we do not need to consider whether the background is too violent, Mainly to the brightness of the skin mainly on the line |
| 2, we see, although the person's legs exposed basically to normal, but the upper part of the body including the face of the contrast and brightness is not enough, therefore, we also need to be part of its nesting, feather value of 150 pixels. For brightening adjustment, select Curve Adjustment Command (CTRL+M), properly illuminated, the effect is as follows: |
| 3, in the completion of early repair, tone adjustment, we will start to pull out the background, (sofa and white background line clearer, no clutter, such as hair, etc.) so I suggest using pen tool to pull background, so the edge will be more accurate and smooth. The steps are as follows: |
| 4, press Ctrl+enter to change the path to a selection, the selection to 1 pixel feather value, and then press the CTRL+J will be selected to copy the sofa, so that our early drawing work is completed. The results are as follows: |
| 5, a new 50cmx30cm, resolution of 254dpi documents, the foreground color is set to dark gray, back static color set to black, set the gradient tool for the foreground to the background color, opacity to 100%, in the middle of the file to pull around a gradient, get the effect as shown: |
| 6. Drag the characters you've previously handled to a new file, put in the right place, the character layer to create a layer mask, and open the gradient tool, set the foreground color is black, the property bar set foreground to transparent gradient, opacity is 100%, from the bottom of the character layer pull up, the effect is as follows: |
| 7, considering this film is wearing a red dress, and the overall style in favor of festive, stylish style, so we choose the following as a background material: |
| 8, the flower material into a new file, and named "Flower Shading" layer, and "flower shading" layer in the "background layer" and "people layer" between the set layer opacity to 63%, the effect is as follows: |
| 9, so we feel that the entire film lacks deep tones, and the background of red and the front of the main characters and sofa red too conflict, so we need to "flower material" layer for the mask, the results are as follows: |
| 10, we found that the overall film now seems to be a little gray, so we need to strengthen the contrast of the film, we first ctrl+e the existing layer to merge, after the merged "background" layer on the establishment of the adjustment layer, the effect is as follows: |
| 11, set the gradient map adjustment layer (set black to white gradient) blending mode is "brightness", and appropriately reduce its opacity to 66%. The overall contrast of the picture is slightly enhanced, the effect is as follows: |
| 12, the basic layout after the synthesis, next we need to the overall decoration of the layout. We found that in the image below, the sofa and black background fusion is not very natural, so, in such cases, we can add some material here to control this question, on the other hand is a picture of the overall embellishment, as a picture of a future. The material and synthesis effect are as follows: |
| 13, we see, the bits and pieces of material blocked the body part of the character, so next we will create a mask layer, set the foreground color is black, with the brush tool, in the image characters to block the part of the footage of the picture to wipe, shielding it. The effect is as follows: |
| 14, Next we add the appropriate text material to the layout, to balance the whole picture, (text in a composite picture, the main play a role in three: one is to play a role in beautification, the second is to play a relevance, and then can play a whole picture of a balanced role), therefore, we according to the needs of the layout, In the upper-left corner of the picture, add text to the effect as shown: |
| 15, first of all, we start with the makeup of the characters, the original piece of the relative makeup relatively simple, in this, we are on the basis of a strengthening and in the creation. Select the Brush tool, draw the foreground color is blue violet, create a new layer, and named "Shadow" layer, select the layer blending mode is "color", with the brush tool in the corner of the eye with a directional map to rub several edges (brush pressure can not exceed 20%) to get the effect of the following: |
| 16, select the Pen tool, in the corner of the person to draw a figure as shown in the outline out: |
| 17, press Ctrl+enter key, the path into a selection, a new layer, named "Eye Shadow 2", the selection of its fill orange: |
| 18, we see that fill up the color is more blunt, and do not conform to the structure of the eye and light (eyeball is round), so we will "eye shadow 2" layer, mask, and reduce its layer opacity to 80%, to create a consistent character eye structure and Shadow shadow effect: |
| 19, Next, we are in the eye shadow powder, a new layer, and named "Powder" layer. Select the elliptical Marquee tool, in the corner of the eye to draw a round selection, and multiple copies, color selection of orange and white, (note the size of the gold powder, not too regular), and finally set the "powder" layer blending mode for "light." The results are as follows: |
| 20, in the "eye shadow" layer and "eye Shadow 2" layer in the middle of a new layer, and named "Eye Shadow 3" layer. Like (Figure 18), use the Pen tool to draw an eye shadow contour shown in the figure, and press Ctrl+enter to change the path to a selection, fill it with white, and set its "eye shadow 3" layer blending mode to "strong light" to get the effect as follows: |
| 21, the next operation methods and purposes like (Figure 20), the results are as follows: |
| 22, in order to make the face more harmonious color, we deal with the character lipstick, the original lipstick in the present seems to be relatively dim, we still use the pen tool hook out of the mouth contour, the path to the selection, feather 3 pixels, the new Curve adjustment Layer command, so that the characters mouth color to achieve harmony with the picture, adjust the parameters and effect as follows |
| 23, good, basic makeup surface, we probably do this, next we want to give the character headdress styling, first of all, we choose to shape the head of the flower material, the following figure: |
| 24. After opening these materials, we choose the flower part, pick it up the door (the material for PSD) dragged to the character's head, in doing these steps, we need to according to the characters of the skull Circle, pay attention to the perspective of flowers, the use of free Transformation command, to change the perspective of flowers to achieve perspective accuracy. The effect is as follows: |
| 25, follow this law, flowers overlap each other, when superimposed to pay attention to the color and size of each other, and finally as the picture effect. |
| 26, in order to make the characters with the head shape on the echo, we choose a butterfly material, in the character arm and the background part of the butterfly with different colors, the effect is as follows: |
| Here, a picture of wonderfully has been completed, and in the end, in order to make the picture more holistic, we add a border to it and get the final effect as follows: |
