Processing Walk Through

Here’s a very quick walk through on how I processed this image. Click here

The first step was to find a suitable image for the background. I found this one on Deviantart. I used the refined edge tool to cut the model out and placed her onto the new background.

Then I added blood to the sword and her dress, added some shadows matched the colours and finally sharpen parts of the image.

Hope you enjoyed the quick walkthrough.

Waiting – Before and After

Here’s a quick before and after with a brief description on how it was created. The original was taken a couple of weeks ago on a family holiday.

New sky added, Hue and Saturation to help blend in the sky, 2 textures at 100% softlight, Cross processing (color Efex Pro), CS6 Tilt & Shift and some final colour changes using Curves.

Red Riding Hood – Before and After

The original image was taken in natural light at our local woods which was very dark resulting in shooting at f2.8 and iso 1600. For the processing I lightened the models body, applied Nik Software Bleach Bypass, Photoshops new Iris Blur in CS6, added a texture with blending mode Linear Burn at 100% and finally applied Nik Software Tonal Contrast at 60%.
