Original picture
final renderings
1. Open the photoshop software, open the image, and copy one layer (it has no effect, but it is a good habit for drawing),
First of all, let’s look at the obvious flaws in the picture, such as color cast and noise.
Let's look at the color cast---I'm not an expert, and I'm also lazy, so I chose the simplest and laziest method.
Image - Adjustments - Auto Color, Auto Contrast.
2. Let’s take a look at the hot spots. There are many tools for removing noise spots. If there are any, you can use them. Unfortunately, I don’t have them, so I choose to directly grind the skin and enter the quick mask. Adjust the appropriate brush with appropriate softness and hardness, zoom in on the girl's face, avoid the eyes, mouth, eyebrows, nose wings, and nostrils, and apply it as carefully as possible.
After applying it. Exit the mask and CTIL+J to put the skin on a separate layer.
3. Filter - Blur - Gaussian Blur to adjust the color of the image appropriately. It is best to master this according to different pictures. I will not say too much here. Image - Adjustment - Curves, adjust the brightness appropriately. And adjust it in conjunction with the contrast. If it's redder, adjust the red channel. If it's more yellow, lower the saturation of the yellow channel in the saturation setting. Just adjust it according to your own feeling.
4. Use the lock tool to frame the eyes, adjust the contrast and saturation appropriately, use the dodge tool to lighten the white part of the eye, use the burn tool to make the pupil black evenly, and use the dodge tool to highlight the pupil highlight.
Use the sharpening tool to sharpen the eyes appropriately.
5. Create a new layer, use the brush tool, set the transparency to 30%, apply some eyeliner appropriately, and draw eyelashes.
Zoom in to take a look and adjust the layer's transparency appropriately.
6. The eyes are almost ready, and I started to talk.
Use the lock tool to frame the mouth, Feather 2, increase the saturation appropriately, and make the color a little lighter (it's cuter, hehe)
The lips in this picture are a bit fake because the quality is not very good. I used the smudge tool to eliminate noise spots and make the color more even. Then on the lower lip, I used the dodge tool to highlight. Add some noise as appropriate.
As long as it's beautiful, MM doesn't care if it's fake or not.
7. Use the lock tool to frame the MM, invert the selection, make the feather larger, use Filter - Blur - Gaussian Blur to blur the background, so that the MM can be highlighted.
Brighten the picture or whiten the MM. The method is: Click on the channel to select the highlight selection, create a new layer and fill it with white.
Adjust the color and master the specific method yourself.
8. Filter - Rendering - Lighting, make MM's face a little brighter. Filter - Sharpening - USM sharpening amount 100%, radius 0.6, level 2, sharpen appropriately to make the image look cleaner.
Use a paintbrush to draw patterns. Type MM’s name,
I'm still a little irritable, so I'll cover it up with a silk brush and call it a day~
