The overall idea of imitating hand-painted effects: It is best to have an overall idea when processing pictures, otherwise processing aimlessly will only waste precious time.
A: Material selection: It is best for beginners to choose pictures with larger pixels and clear facial features of the characters.
B: Basic steps:
1. For character beauty, clear photos can be slightly smoothed and toned. For blurry pictures, follow the steps: Skin smoothing > Whitening > Re-skin resurfacing > Color toning, etc.
2. Character line drawing: In order to make the characters resemble hand-drawn effects, attention should be paid to the drawing of various lines.
3. Detail processing: After image processing, observe the overall picture and modify some of the details, such as highlights, subtitles, backgrounds, trinkets, etc.
1. Open the original image material, press Ctrl + J to copy the background layer, change the layer blending mode to "Screen", and reduce the opacity appropriately. The effect is as shown below. Then press Ctrl + Alt + Shift + E to stamp the layer.
2. Smooth the skin of the character, press Ctrl + J to copy the stamped layer, execute: Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur, the value is 5, then hold down the Alt key to add a layer mask, and use a white soft edge Use a paintbrush to polish the skin of a beautiful woman. The specific method is as shown below.
3. Create a new layer, stamp the layer, choose a scatter brush, adjust the brush size appropriately, the intensity is: 25-30%, apply along the direction of the hair until the original position of the hair is not clear.
4. Modify the image size, I usually modify it to about 1000 pixels. The purpose of the modification is to facilitate the drawing of various lines such as hair and eyelashes.
Eye processing: Use the Dodge tool to whiten the whites of the eyes, and the Burn tool to deepen the edges. I divided the double eyelids into three lines, from bottom to top: 3 pixels of black, 3 pixels of white, and 2 pixels of black. For the lower eyelid I divided it into two lines, from top to bottom: 2 pixels black and 3 pixels white. Finally modify the transparency, etc.
