Photoshop creates a dreamy purple portrait effect

Source: Renren Author: Zhou Wei This tutorial focuses on the ideas of character polishing and detail processing. These are very important in character processing. We can use the author's ideas to find out the imperfect parts of the characters, and then slowly modify them until the perfect effect is achieved.

1. Organize your thoughts first: the skin in the picture is not good, acne and hemorrhoids need to be repaired, there are too many hairs on the hair, and the hair style is not good, so the hair needs to be repaired and liquefied into a synthetic hair style, the tattoo is too confusing and does not match the picture. Therefore, we need to trim it off. If the fat is not good, we need to reduce it a little. Finally, we need to deal with the color tone. The desired feeling should be formed into a specific color tone, and the imagination should be transformed into a specific picture.

2. Remove acne and hemorrhoids on the character’s face, and dermabrasion to fully preserve the skin texture. This step is very time-consuming and requires slow work and careful work.

3. The tail under the hair is too small, and the sense of form is not good. I deliberately exaggerated it. Pull out the tail below, enlarge it, combine it in the picture, and adjust the light and dark structure of the hair.

4. Slightly adjust the color contrast of the picture, that is, set the general tone of the character itself.

5. I hope the overall feeling of the picture is very romantic, dreamy, and like a dream. I chose a lot of rose red and pink purple to match it. The purple-red in the dark part of the picture also becomes the same color system, blending into the picture and the characters. The color of the face remains unchanged, thus creating contrast and becoming the main subject of the picture.

6. Adjust the color balance of the entire image.

7. Check all the necessary details of the picture. Colors that are too dull will make the picture opaque, so adjust the contrast of the picture to release the dreamy effect, and it is roughly completed.
