New Tut from me. Involves Selective coloring- sorry PSP users.

How to go from this: To this:

1. Open base. Sharpen/Crop/Resize e.t.c. I didn't sharpen.

2. Duplicate base, set to Screen @ 100%. You may need to fiddle with the opacity, depending on your image.

3. Make a new Color Balance Layer. These were my settings-

Midtones: -45, -5, 24

4. Duplicate base, and drag to the top. Desaturate and set to Softlight, 30%.

5. Make a new Hue/Sat Layer. These were my settings-

Master: 0, 27, 0

Red: 0, 13, 0

6. Make a new Selective Color Layer. My settings-

Reds: -88, 0, 54, 0

Yellows: -81, 0, 49, 0

Neutrals: 20, -14, -31, 0

7. (This step is optional, I suppose)Make another Selective Color Layer. My settings-

Neutrals: 0, -8, 12, 0

This is what my icon looks like now:

8. Something was missing, so I added this random brush made by me in white.

Finished. My result:

^^Thats a good colouring tut and this one is too

Thanks, but all 3 of those tuts involve goddamn selective colouring or Curves.

It's my fault for having Adobe Elements. lol.

Does anyone know any that would work with Adobe Elements 2.0? It has the majority of stuff, just not the good things like Selective Colouring and Curves. lol.
