 basically you will be given some portrait with text  , simply use the pen tool to  type out the words on the line after doing so right click one the text layer and rasterize it.  after doing so press command T and   right click to warp it in order to give the curves . 

and continue the same throughout and  hence you will have something like this. 

YOU MAN SNAKE! (TEXTURE AND DISPLACEMENT ) WEEK6

SO TODAY WE HAVE SOMETHING QUITE INTERESTING !! 

I learnt some new tricks on how to change different skin and have an original feeling to it. 

basically we start with this portrait below. 

and the snake pattern underneath.

 i will share some tricks from what i learnt during this session.

so the trick is , open the image you want to use and save it as a displacement file , simply by changing the name and adding disp. and when you are done.  this is a black and white image which helps in shifting black and white colors accordingly. 

then select the snake picture and copy it to the portrait image . scale it accordingly then blend it by hitting multiply to have the best effect. when your done doing so , go to filter and select distort and pick on the displacement and hence it will adjust according to the curves of the face.  and simply and like always if you want to get rid of something just  do the masking and erase the unwanted part , you can always lower or higher the opacity as well .

 creativity shall never leave my side, so i decided to change the colour of the eyes and give a whitish glowing eyes .  simply press on command U and the hue bar appears and you can have your eye colour changed . 

hence, you man snake! 

i wont make this long , as the steps are the same .  from what i learnt the principle stays the same the only thing changes is the pictures that you use. for instance the second example the flag can be pasted on the silk material in the same way .

there you go ! and you can also change the sizes by free transform . 

CARTOONISTA and TEXTURE !!! - week5

THINKING HOW TO ''CARTOONIFY'' YOURSELF ?
PHOTOSHOP MAKES IT ALL POSSIBLE !!!!

 See this picture . . . . . .

TADAAA! yes you can create it too.. 

This will help  in tracing out pictures. 

simply make  a new layer , and select a pen tool.  and start tracing out the curves and lines on the photo.  

things to note:  while using the pen tool select the path which will help in adding the colour as per desired. also that you can change the opacity to lighten or darker the area.  or even to draw more accurately.  this can also be done by using a tablet (bamboo or intuous or any other)  or even simply a mouse)

you can continue doing this till you complete the whole portrait.  you can also add effects like weird looking hair , different shirt pattern , extra features like a mole on the face . 

after doing so , we can create a background. again it can be any color any pattern.

i chose this black , red and white .

its easy , just create a new one with around 1200 pixels by 1200.  and you have your blank document and use the selection tool just to make an equal selection choose the width and height of a certain pixel to have a uniform selection throughout . and pick a colour of your choice and complete it .

after doing so go to filter select polar cordinate ! yes and you will have your back ground! 

TEXTURE 

this was fun , i had total fun making this texture i know it makes no sense but it was fun! 

 yes thats my texture!  some body cell nuclear something something with glass pieces ! i can go on. . . .

anyway , this is very simple. . .

just go to file hit new and set a smaller image size. 

pick your colour and click on filter and pick render you get a certain effect after doing so click on filter again and choose filter gallery and create more effects of your choice and come up with awesome texture and have fun!!
