In today’s tutorial we take Lady Gaga’s make from Judas as a template to add into the photograph. Using photoshop we can easily add any type of thick eye liner and eye shadow, as well as use the same techniques when applying other make-up (lipstick, blush, etc.)

First, we begin with an image of Gaga that is stripped of the make-up itself (episode of that to come in the future). Now, using a blank canvas we find an image for reference, or you could even begin drawing your own eye liner. Then we move the layer onto a new canvas and begin modifying it to scale correctly and look more realistic. We can do this by scaling and adding edge modifications. After the make-up is added back into the picture we can then use blending modes to adjust accordingly and make a few more slight tweaks with that transform tool. It’s an effect that is both useful and simple to imply in many situations. .

How To Add Something Into A Photo – A Phlearn Video Tutorial

Y’all asked to add an animal into the image, and to make things even a bit more difficult we decided to add a cat into the foreground.

First, we found an image of a cat that works for the photograph. You can take your own image as long as you remember to light it all the same. We made a selection around the cat using the magic wand tool, and with the outline selected all we have to do is fill in the middle to make a quick, easy, and perfect selection. In order to make the cat seem natural we then use a combination of levels, hue, and saturation to make sure we get the color right. And we use a few special techniques to check the values of each. And finally a custom brush with the clone stamp tool to add more grass in front of the cat.

Hope you all enjoy and can put this all in to practice soon! .

Today we are focusing on removing stray hairs. Though techniques will vary, depending on the image you are trying to fix, I have found that the patch tool and the brush tool work very well. .
