Phew! I´m back again! So soon? Yeah, yeah, I´m weak! Some people requested me some tuts and I´ve do them sooner than I thought. So here they are. I hate doing tuts because so it seems like if I knew about icons. And... nope, that´s not true. So just read them and improve them!



Requested by [info]flinkkamingo3, [info]english_teacups and [info]candy126.





Step 1:

Crop and resize your image. In this case I duplicate it twice and cut it up into pieces to do it more original.

Step 2:

Duplicate it and set it on screen as many times as necessary. I did it twice.

Step 3:

Add a new SELECTIVE COLOR layer:

REDS: cyan -53, magenta +30, yellow +64
YELLOWS: cyan +54, yellow -39
NEUTRALS: cyan +48, yellow -51

Step 4:

Add a HUE/SATURATION layer and increase the saturation by +31 and the red saturation by +30.

Step 5:

Add a new SELECTIVE COLOR layer:

REDS: cyan -49, magenta +41, yellow +44
YELLOWS: cyan -15, magenta +47, yellow +33
CYANS: black +40
NEUTRALS: cyan +30, yellow -19

Step 6:

Add a HUE/SATURATION layer and increase the saturation by +20.


And that´s all :)
You know you will have to play around with the settings ´cause every cap is different, and if you have any question just tell me :) I would love to see what you get!

Step 1:

Crop and resize your image. Putting the main figure on a side usually looks nice :)

Step 2:

Duplicate it and set it on screen as many times as necessary. I did it twice.

Step 3:

Add a new CURVES layer using that settings:

RGB: input-70 output-56 ; input-186 output-211
RED: input-117 output-143
GREEN: input-138 output-121
BLUE: input-134 output-119

Step 4:

Add a new SELECTIVE COLOR layer:

REDS: cyan -49, magenta +16, yellow +57
YELLOWS: cyan -49, yellow +45
GREENS: cyan +79, magenta +61, yellow +80
NEUTRALS: cyan +54, yellow -45

Step 5:

Add a new CURVES:

RGB: input-55 output-46 ; input-182 output-196
RED: input-116 output-137
GREEN: input-113 output-135
BLUE: input-134 output-123

Step 6:

Add a new SELECTIVE COLOR layer:

REDS: cyan -35, magenta +25, yellow +55
YELLOWS: cyan +46, yellow -32
GREENS: cyan +100, magenta -79, yellow +100
NEUTRALS: cyan +33, yellow -26

Step 6:

Add a HUE/SATURATION layer and increase the saturation by +20. Set the yellows saturation on -20 and the green saturation in +30.

And that´s all :)
Playing around with the settings is important ´cause every cap is different. If you have any question just tell me :) I would love to see what you get!

*moi se arrodilla y te alaba*

Me parece q no llegué a comentar en tu post anterior de iconos de Amélie. Ahora voy a comentar, q con la emoción de esos iconos taaaan bonitos se me pasó por alto!!

Y ahora tutos!! Ese icono de Amélie es precioso! Aunque el de Kate no se queda atrás, nono. Pero Amélie es Amélie!! *wink*

Muchas muchas gracias por hacer los tutoriales. Y por esos iconos tan lindos. ^^ Y ya he agregado el post a mis memorias.

Y por cierto, I hate doing tuts because so it seems like if I knew about icons. And... nope, that´s not true...... Si eso significa q "no sabes de iconos", de eso nada! Vaya, con lo poco q he visto se me ha caído la baba. xD En serio q son preciosos!!

Bueno, todo este apalancamiento solo era para decirte q me encantan tus iconos y los de Amélie son reaaaaaally ♥♥♥♥♥!! =)
Sep 30 06 (UTC)
Ainss, muchas gracias! Qué alegría ver a otra fan de Amelie por aquí (Amelie powa!)!

Tú haces iconos? Creo que no he visto ninguno tuyo, fui a cotillear a tu LJ (es que no lo puedo evitar!) pero como es FO pues no supe si es que no hacías (aunque habiendo meorizado mis tuts es obvio que si XD), si tenías una comunidad o si es que tus iconos eran FO.

Lo que pasa con los iconos es que me frustran, por eso digo que no sé de iconos, porque a veces intento hacer cosas distintas y no me gusta nada y al final me da la impresión de que hago siempre lo mismo. O sea que más bien hago lo que puedo.

Bueno pues ahora voy a la otra entrada a contestar a tu comment, que no me gusta dejarlos sin contestar (algunos llaman a esto ser obsesiva compulsiva XD). Gracias por comentar!

I really like both of these, and am memming!

Oh, and I don't want to offend you or anything, but I think your '#loose toughts/release your tongue' is meant to be 'thoughts,' not 'toughts?' It's easy enough to fix if it's wrong, and not one of those things that you might necessarily notice if you don't ever click that button to comment on your own journal ('cause how often do any of us do that?).
Sep 30 06 (UTC)
Yay! Thanks so much for telling me, english is not my native lenguage so although I read this sentence almost every day I haven´t realized without your help. I´m always doning mistakes, so I really appreciate when people tell me :)

Oh, and I´m glad you like the tuts!
Sep 29 06 (UTC)
the red saturation by +30. help me with this i have PS7. and i tried without it and its too blue :(
Sep 30 06 (UTC)
Sure! When you add I hue/saturation layer, there must be an arrow beside the word "All" (or something similar, I´m not suer because my PS is in spanish) on the top of the box. When you push the arrow, you can select the colour you want to modify.

I hope it helps, if you don´t fin the arrow try it pushing Ctrl+1 :)
Sep 29 06 (UTC)

ahhhhhhhh odio q el Paint no tenga Selective Color Layer ¬¬ pero los memorizo igualmente porq son geniales y me servirán de guía ^_______^ Gracias amoreeeeeeee ♥
Oct 02 06 (UTC)
Omphhh es verdad, que tú tienes el PSP! Bueno chica, pues a mi es que me encanta lo del Selective Color (si no meto 3 en cada iconos no me quedo tranquila XD) pero seguro que se puede sustituir (más o menos) por capas de colores, al menos yo vi 1 tut por ahí que haciéndolo por los 2 métodos llegaba más o menos al mismo icono, o por capas de Color Balance.

Me alegra que te puedan servir, de todas formas :)
