Step 1 Step 1
We Will Be Different stock using two items for this project - first, the arm from cobweb-stock (use "Arm08.jpg" from the zip file) and a lump of meat from stock xchng . We will use two different values \u200b\u200bissues for this project - firstly, the arm of the stock web (use "Arm08.jpg" in the zip file) and a piece of meat xchng of shares. Please remember to follow rules and credit These artists WHERE Appropriate Them. Please remember to follow these rules of artists and credit if necessary.
We start by opening the picture in Photoshop arm and duplicating the "Background" Layer by clicking, Command + J. We want to preserve the background layer for Later On. started by opening the picture of the arm in Photoshop and duplicate the background "layer by pressing Command + J. We want to preserve the background layer later. Hold the Alt key + double-click the duplicate layer, Then rename it "Arm." Hold down Alt + double-click the duplicate layer, then rename the "arm."
Choose the Pen Tool (set to Shape Layer) to cut out the arm from ITS background. Select the pen tool (set to a shape layer) to cut the arm of his background. Its important to Have a clean cut, so first Into the picture zoom using the Magnifying Glass and Carefully trace around the edge cutting across the top of the arm, as in the picture below. Its important to have a clean cut, so first zoom in the picture with the magnifying glass and follow-up care around the top edge arm, as in the picture below. If you September the Fill in the Layer Palette to a 0% You Will Be Able to see the arm, pero still manipulate the path. If you set the padding in the layers palette 0%, you can see the arm, but still handle the route.
Step 2 Step 2
Once You Have completed your path and You are happy with it, click the Eye Icon in the Layer Palette next to the Shape Layer to hide it. Once you have completed your journey and you're happy with it, click the eye icon in the layers palette next to the Shape Layer to hide. Follow this by holding Command + Clicking the Shape Layer. Follow this by holding Command-click the shape layer. This puts a Selection around the "Arm" Layer, now press Command + J on the keyboard to create a copy of the arm onto a new layer, rename this layer "Prime Arm" and hide it by clicking, the Eye Icon. This is a selection around the "arm" layer, now press Command + J on your keyboard to create a copy of the arm on a new layer, rename this layer "First Branch" and hidden by clicking the icon eye.
Step 3 Step 3
We are now going to remove the shadow from the arm and "Arm" Layer. Now let's remove the arm and arm shadow "layer. Choose the Heal Tool from the Toolbox with September to normal mode in the options bar. Choose cure tool box with tools normal mode set in the options bar. Sample Some of the sheet around the arm by Holding Alt + Clicking the sheet. Sample some of the leaves around the arm Holding Alt + click on the sheet. luckily creaser remove the sheet is making it look so convincing Will Be easy. Fortunately, the blade is too wrinkled to make it look convincing be easy.
Start painting over the arm and resample Different parts of the sheet to keep the texture from repeating. Start painting on the arm and resample different parts of the blade to maintain the texture to repeat. Activate "Prime Arm" from time to time to make sure you do not go to far up the arm. Enable "arm first" from time to time to ensure that they will not measure up to his arm. Eventually the arm and removed shadow Will Be Leaving you with a stump and a clean sheet as in the picture below. Finally, the arm and the shade is removed leaving you with a trunk and a leaf as in the picture below.
Step 4 Step 4
Reactivate the "Arm Prime" layer by pressing the Eye Icon next to it in the Layer Palette. Reactivate the "arm first" layer by pressing the eye icon next to it in the layers palette. Next we want to add a Layer Mask (Layer> Layer Mask> Reveal All) to this layer so We Can mask out Some of the arm. Then we add a layer mask (Layer> Layer Mask> Reveal All) to this layer, so it can hide some of the arms. Hard Edged Choose a brush from the Brush Picker setting the size to 80 pixels, Opacity of 100% and Flow of 100%. Choose a hard edged brush from the Brush Picker set a size of 80 pixels, opacity 100% and 100% flow. Next September your Foreground color to black (# 000000) on the Layer Mask and draw four cutting lines as in the picture below. Next set the foreground color to black (# 000000) and in the layer mask to draw four lines cut as in the picture below.
Step 5 Step 5
Save your progress and open the file texture That meat we downloaded earlier. Save your progress and open texture beef and file we downloaded earlier. Once again cut it out from ITS background. Again, enough of his background. You Do not Need to Be as Careful with this as we want to rough it up a bit soon anyway. You need not be so careful with it, because we want to rough it a bit soon anyway. Use your Pen Tool to trace around as Before the edge - Be Careful Not to select the shadow. Use your pen tools to trace the outline before - be careful not to select the shade.
As in Step 2, copy this to a new layer by pressing Command + J, and rename this layer "Meat." As in step 2, copy it to a new layer by pressing Ctrl + J, and rename this layer of "meat." We now want to copy it to the working document, we do this by holding the Alt key and dragging the "Meat" layer to the "Create a New Layer" Icon Within the Layer Palette. Now we want to copy in the working paper, we do this by holding down the Alt key and dragging the "flesh" layer to the "Create a new layer" icon in the layers palette. This will open a dialog Asking document you What you want to copy it too. This opens a dialog box asking you what document to be copied as well. Choose "Arm08" (Which is our working document) from the list, and Click OK. Select "Arm08" (which is our working paper) from the list, and click OK. Finally, go back to the "Arm08" document. Finally, return to "Arm08" document.
Step 6 Step 6
Move the "Meat" layer to the top of the Layer Stack. Move the "flesh" layer to the top of the layer stack. Use the Healing Brush to remove Some of the larger white patches of fat on top of the meat with Other sampled texture. Use the brush corrector to eliminate some of the larger white spots of grease on the top of the meat with the texture shows another. If You Do not Have the Healing Brush Then feel free to use the Clone Stamp. If you do not have the healing brush, then feel free to use the Clone Stamp. Position the Meat Layer so it totally covers the arm and hand, move the Meat Layer Below The "Arm Prime" Layer. position of the layer of meat so that covers the entire arm and hand, move the layer of meat under his arm the "first" layer.
Step 7 Step 7
We are now going to draw the flesh back onto the arm stumps, we begin by Adding a Hide All Layer Mask to the "Meat Layer (Layer> Layer Mask> Hide All). Now let's take the meat back in the arm stump, started adding a Hide All layer mask to the "Meat Layer (Layer> Layer Mask> Hide All). Next we want to choose a Soft Edge Brush from the Brush Picker with a size of around 10-20 pixels, Opacity 100% and 100% Flow, the settings Then Need To Be Adjusted. Then we choose a soft edge brush from the Brush Picker with a size of about 10 -20 pixels, Opacity 100% and 100% flow, then adjustments need to be adjusted.
Press F5 or go to Window> Brushes to open the Brush dialog window. Press the F5 key or go to Window> Brushes to open the Brush Dialog. If You are using a pressure sensitive tablet Then, your first stop is the Shape Dynamics, under Size Jitter Command locate the Drop Down List and select Pen Pressure. If using a pressure-sensitive tablet, then, your first stop is the Shape Dynamics in Size Jitter to locate the command drop-down list and select Down Pen Pressure.
Then We want to change the Texture of the Brush to give it a nice rough look, choose Clouds from the provided list of textures, with Scale 100% also tick Texture Each Tip. A continuación, desea cambiar la textura del pincel para darle un aspecto áspero agradable, nubes elegir de la lista proporcionada de texturas, con escala de 100%, ponga una cruz Textura cada punta.
Step 8 Paso 8
We are now ready to paint the meat back on, Select the Meat Layer's Mask and with the Brush's Foreground Color set to White (#FFFFFF) gradually build up the arm as in the picture below. Ahora estamos listos para pintar la carne de nuevo, select the layer mask of flesh and lessons learned from the brush color to white (# FFFFFF) to develop gradually as the arm in the picture below. Repeat this for each 'section of arm. Repeat this for each section of the arm.
Step 9 Step 9
The shadow of the arm is Used to ground the image and make it look less fake. Shadow of the strip of land is used for the image and make it look less fake. We use the shadow from the original photo as we preserved the background layer. We use the shadow of the original photo retained as the background layer. Locate the "Arm" Layer and Add as Reveal all Layer Mask (Layer> Layer Mask> Reveal all). Look for the "arm" layer as disclosed in all Add Layer Mask (Layer> Layer Mask> Reveal all.)
We will now mask out Some of the "Arm" Revealing the shadow layer Below, try and follow the shape of the arm. Now we mask some of the arms of the "layer" that reveals the shadows then try to follow the shape of the arm. We Will Be Once again using a soft edge brush, or you continue to use the dog textured brush we created in the last step if you wish. Again we will use a soft edge brush, or brush can still use the texture we created in the last step if desired. This will add a rough edge to your shadow Especially around the stumps. This adds a rough edge of his shadow on all around the stumps.
Step 10 Step 10
Almost The project is complete. The project is almost complete. Are The final steps to draw Some veins and strings of flesh onto the stumps and Make Some shadows. The final steps are to remove some veins and chain meat on the stumps and make some shadows. We shall reuse the "Meat" layer for this step. We will revert to the "meat" layer for this step.
First We Need to copy this layer, press Command + J Either or drag it to the New Layer Icon Within the Layer Palette. First we have to copy this layer, or press Command + J, or drag the new layer icon in the layers palette. The new layer will Be Called "Meat Copy." The new layer is called "Meat Copy." Drag this above-the "Arm Prime" layer and delete ITS Layer Mask by right-clicking on the Mask and Selecting Delete Layer Mask. Drag this over the "Arm Prime coat" and remove your mask layer by right clicking and selecting Delete mask layer mask. Once again the whole slab of meat Should Be visible. Once again, the slab all meat should be visible.
The meat Needs to Be a Little Darker for the strings - so we adjust it with Levels (Image> Adjustments> Levels) setting the Input Levels to 0, 0.64, and 255. The meat has to be a little darker for strings - so adjusted with Levels (Image> Adjustments> Levels) setting the input levels at 0, 0.64, 255. Then We are going to add Another Hide All Layer Mask to this layer (Layer> Layer Mask> Hide All>). We are then going to add another layer to the Hide All layer mask (Layer> Layer Mask> Hide All>).
Choose the Brush Tool again, the textured brush Should Still Be active. Select the brush tool, brush texture should still be active. If not, Then in September it again as in Step 7, adjust the size so it is very small around 4 or 5 pixels. If not, then set again as in step 7, adjust the size of which is very small about 4 or 5 pixels. On the Layer Mask Some draw strings of flesh Joining the stumps together. In the layer mask to draw some strings of flesh that connects the stumps together. Draw it from flesh to flesh - not skin to flesh. Take it out melee - not the skin to the flesh.
Step 11 Step 11
The strings of flesh will cast shadows down onto the cloth beneath, we can fake this by choosing Easily the "Meat Copy" Layer Mask Clicking and holding Command while it. chains meat cast shadows on the canvas below, we can easily fake this by choosing the "meat copy "layer mask and use Command-click on it. This will put a selection around the strings. This will put a selection around the ropes.
Next we make a new Layer Called" Shadow "and fill the selection with black (Edit> Fill> Black). Next we make a new layer called" Shadow "and fill the selection with black (Edit> Fill> Black). Using the Move Tool adjust the shadow Slightly so it is away from the strings. Using the Move tool to adjust the shadow of what is a bit far from the strings. The Black Will Be too dark so we reduce the Opacity to around 50%. The black is very dark so we reduce the opacity around 50%. Puede Also add a 2 pixel Gaussian Blur if you feel it is still too sharp. can also add a 2 pixel Gaussian blur if you believe that it is too sharp. Finally, drag it below-the "Meat" layer. Finally, drag it below the "meat" of the layer.
Step 12 Step 12
Choose the Burn Tool from the Toolbox and the Range to Midtones September. Choose recording tool toolbox and set the midtone range. Next September the Exposure to 20% and click the Airbrush option. Next adjust the exposure and 20%, and then click the option airbrush. Select the "Meat" layer and add Some dark edges Where the meat is exposed. Select the "flesh" layer and add dark edges where the meat is exposed. Select "Prime Arm" and change the range to shadows, Then burn the flesh Where the has-been severed arm. Select "arm first" and change the range of shadows, then burn the flesh on the arm has been cut.
Conclusion Conclusion
The final and Probably the Easiest step is to create a Black And White Adjustment Layer at the top of the layer stack and change the Blending Mode to Soft Light. The last and probably the easiest step is to create Black & White adjustment layer on top of the stack of layers and change the Blending Mode to Soft Light. This Makes the picture Darker and more washed out. This makes the image darker and wash. If You Do not Have the Black and White Adjustment Layer option, Then create a Hue / Saturation Adjustment Layer and reduce the Saturation to -100. If you do not have the Black and White option adjustment layer, then create a Hue / Saturation adjustment layer and reduce the saturation to -100.
