Coloring Tutorial; includes B/C, Curves, Selective Coloring, Levels and Fill Layers, PS 7.

We are going to make

from

NOTE: this tutorial should not be followed directly. I encourage you to change the steps to suit your image. Unless you use my image, that is ok too

Step One

Crop, resize, maybe even sharpen your image. Whatever you like to start off with. Even if you are using a dark image, don't make a screen layer.

Step Two

Make a new adjustment layer of Brightness/Contrast. B: 11 and C: 7. If you think your image needs more contrast, up it a bit. But we're upping the contrast more later anyway.

Step Three

New adjustment layer of Curves. You range around Input: 91 Output: 167. Depends on your image.

Step Four

Now, duplicate your base layer, set it to soft light Opacity 35% and bring to top. Play around with opacity.

Step Five

Now, I'm focusing on her face. I'm trying to get her skin tone right. So make a new adjustment layer/selective coloring. Cyan - Reds - 29.

Step Six

Another Selective Color layer. Again we're trying to improve her skin tone.

Reds

C -25

M -13

Y +50

B +14

Step Seven

This is partly Your Step. it should create some tone in a color. If your image has a lot of green in it, maybe up something in the Greens to try bring the Green out more. I wanted more Blue in my image, so I did

Blues

C +100

M +100

Y -100

B +100

Now that you've brought out one of your colors, go to Neutrals -

C +16

M +17

Y -7

B -5

Step Eight

Make a new Adjustment Layer/Levels and do auto levels.

Step Nine

Make a new fill layer. Color depends on your image, I used turquoise. Set it to Soft Light.

Done!
