- PS7
- Curves
- Selective Coloring

->




tuto #4

choose your base. i picked this image, from lost media. crop and resize it.




open a new curves adjustment layer.
rgb
input:49; output:70
it will look like this; and then, duplicate this layer.
->


open a new layer, fill it with #EAB75F and set the blend mode to multiply, 16% opacity.
->


open a new selective color layer.
reds
cyan: -100; magenta: +36; yellow: +40; black: 0
yellows
cyan: -20; magenta: -34; yellow: -70; black: 0
neutrals
cyan: +20; magenta: +4; yellow: +8; black: -22
->


open a new color balance layer.
midtones
-28; -16; -15
shadows
-13; 0; -16
->


now duplicate your base, drag it to the top, set it to soft light. then select filter>blur>gaussian blur (8,0 pixels).
->


open a new selective color layer.
reds
cyan: -100; magenta: +49; yellow: +48; black: 0
neutrals
cyan: +63; magenta: -27; yellow: -22; black: 0
->


now take this texture by peoplemachines, resize it and set the blend mode to multiply, 50%; and this texture, also by peoplemachines, resize and set the blend mode to screen, 30%.

and you're done!
