Step
1: To start the mane event,
let's do a quick drag-and-drop
of the face onto our lion. |
 |
Step
2: Next, click on the layer
mask icon to create a layer
mask for us to work on. |
 |
Step
3: A layer mask is a great
way of erasing part of an
image while maintaining control
over how much you want to
erase. Paint in the layer
mask with black to erase,
white to unerase. The Intuos
Pen's 1,024 levels of pressure-sensitivity
give you the power to blend
the two images subtly and
cleanly. |
 |
Step
4: Once you have the layer
mask the way you want it,
drag the layer mask to the
trash can icon to delete the
layer mask (click on the Apply
button to apply the mask before
deleting it.) |
 |
Step
5: Now we're going to clone
a little hair onto the guy's
face. Choose a small brush,
and select "Use All Layers"
and "Size" and "Opacity" to
get the most out off the Intuos
Pen. You can literally "paint"
hair in by sampling from a
nearby section of mane and
painting on the face. |
 |
Step
6: And here's one more reason
why the Intuos Pen is on the
top of the food chain, Photoshop-wise.
Click "Preserve Transparency"
on the face layer, and set
the rubber stamp to "Color"
and paint in the color of
the lion's body on the face.
If you set your DuoSwitch
for the 'option' or 'alt'
key, you can sample with a
gentle roll of the finger
and release for smooth, easy
cloning. |
