When processing this tutorial, we use some beautiful material overlays to change the color of the layer and add decoration. The overall effect is a bit decadent and uninhibited, which is more in line with the personality of modern characters.
Original picture
final effect
1. Open the original image and press ctrl+j to copy a layer. Generally, you should develop this good habit. We will name this layer "First Layer". Then the copied layer will be slightly modified to remove spots on the character's skin. This step will not be introduced in detail.
2. Select "First Layer" and press ctrl+j to copy another layer. Select "Soft Light" as the overlay method. We name this layer "Second Layer".
3. Create a curve adjustment layer and set the parameters as shown below.
4. Open the material shown in the picture below, because Xiaoyao loves to collect good pictures. As long as they are beautiful pictures, no matter how big or small, he will collect them all. Everyone can learn this from Xiaoyao. Copy material one to 2 layers and name them color one and color two. Select color one, select Darken as the overlay method, and then use a mask to paint out the arm part.
