Before & After.

[chewveron-blog]

I’ve chosen the black and white picture of Hank Williams to work with.

1) Firstly, I removed the background of the picture so my final image would look cleaner.

2) I started with the skin colour. By using Quick Selection Tool, I selected the person’s skin. And used quick masking (Q) to crop out the eyes and teeth areas. (red image shown above). Then, I created a new adjustment layer, and pick ‘Solid Color’. The current layer was changed from ‘Normal’ to ‘Color”.

3) By using soft brush, layers of colors were added on the objects and clothes, setting it from ‘Normal’ to ‘Multiply’.

4) Then, I used gradient for the background of my image.

5) For the touch up of my final image, I use ‘Feather’ to smoothen the edge of the person. Layers of ‘Curves’, ‘Levels’ and ‘Saturation’ were added to it.
