Re: Photoshop Tutorial: Tattoo
[quote="webmaster":3n2mpwxh]In this tutorial am I going to describe how to to add a tattoo to a body. In this example I choosed an image of Catherine Bell from [url:3n2mpwxh]http://www.desktopgirls.com[/url:3n2mpwxh]. For the tattoo, I searched for 'tribal' on google image search and found a nice image to use as a tattoo. Here's the photo: [img:3n2mpwxh]http://www.bj-world.com/tutimg/tattoo-1.jpg[/img:3n2mpwxh] And here's the tattoo: [img:3n2mpwxh]http://www.bj-world.com/tutimg/tattoo-2.jpg[/img:3n2mpwxh] Copy the image from google image search that you want to use. Open Photoshop and make a new image (CTRL+N). Press ENTER and paste the tattoo into the image (CTRL+V). Select the Magic Wand tool and click in the white area of the image to select it. You can set the sensitivity of the Magic Wand tool by changing the Tolerance, I use 50 for this tribal. The white section is now selected, press DEL to make the white background transperant. You will not see any change because if you look in the Layer window down right, you will see that there's a white background layer behind the tribal layer. Press CTRL+A and then CTRL+C to copy the whole tribal. Open the photo of the person that you want to add the tattoo on. Press CTRL+V to paste the tibal into the photo. You can now prett CTRL+T to transform the tribal, for example make it smaller or rotate it. To rotate it, click outside the box and drag the mouse to the way you want it to rotate to. When you think your're done, doubleclick in the box to accept your changes. You should now change the opacity to less then 100% to make it look more realistic. I used 75%. You will find the opacity-field in the Layer window down right. [img:3n2mpwxh]http://www.bj-world.com/tutimg/tattoo-3.jpg[/img:3n2mpwxh] You are now done.
