As i promised today i will show you my color blending collection 2 with the effects that are popular in photography. 1. Yellow brown tone: - After opening your pic,create a new curves layer. Its to increase green tone so adjust to fit your pic: - Create a new color balance layer to gain the yellow tone . Set this layer to Color 100% - Create a new channel mixer layer, it make the light down: - Create a new selective color layer: Reds: 0,0,0,100 Yellows: -55,58,-34,-25 Greens: -85,100,-76,-25 Neutrals: -8,7,-10, 2 Blacks: 57,88,100,22 - Create a new curves layer to gain the light on model face and background: Final effect: 2. Neutral effect: I did another method before but it did not work well for some another photos so i remake it in other way :D Stock: - After duplicate your pic, choose Channels, press Ctrl+A to select Green channel then press Ctrl+C to copy and Ctrl+V to paste it into RGB channel. Come back to Layers pallete, lower opacity to 50%, we have: - Create a new color balance layer. Its to increase the cyan tone in the pic so if your pic has this tone already, adjust it carefully. - Create a new curves layer. Its to make the cyan tone down a bit also gain a bit magenta on the model skin. This step is optional: - Create a new selective color layer. Take care of Red channel if your model skin is good enough. - Create a new Hue/Saturation layer. This step to give the life on the skin and lips. Its optional. - New Brightness/contrast layer, then i use soft black brush to erase the model: - After this step we see some light wrong color on her hair, neck, arm and hand. So i create a new clayer, set to color 70%, use soft brush, color 2d2f27 to paint over these parts. We have final result: This is result with another method: 3. Vintage effect: Stock: - Duplicate your pic, set this layer to Screen 100%. You can use your favorite choice to brighten, soften, sharpen it. - Create a new fill layer, color ffecb2, mode Multipy 100%. - New fill layer, color a9dcff, mode Color Burn 100%. If your pic background is dark, you should lower opacity. - New fill layer again, color ffcff8, mode Soft light 30%. - Create a new selective color layer: Reds: 0,-5,-16,-12 Yellows: -100,-37,-100,-38 Greens: 100,100,-100,50 Cyans: 100,66,-17,0 Magentas:-100,20,10,0 Whites: -27,67,25,0 Neutrals: -5,0,-9,4 Blacks: 0,0,0,5 - Create a new layer , mode is Soft light 100%, use soft white brush to paint on the nose like the pic below: Final effect: Here is another result with same technique.
