This model (I assume) looked like a bit of a "pretty boy" so I thought I would make him look ultra smooth and classy.
Found a link on www.Modelmayhem.com for processing called frequence seperation.
In a nut shell:
Open original, duplicate layer twice. Blur middle layer with Gaussian / surface blur. Click on top layer, then image>apply image> sellect the blur layer in the drop down menu. make settings, subtract, scale 2, offset 128 and NO invert and click ok (based on using an 8 bit file. for 16 bit make it add, scale 2, offset 0 and INVERT). Change blending mode to linear light for top layer.
then use a small heal brush and heal the top (now grey) layer. you can also dodge and burn on this layer. the top layer keeps all the detail and the middle layer is for the color etc.
After that I just made new layer from visable, used a brush to brush the red in with colour mode and masked out edges to make it neat,
then Librodo sharpen and Adamus sharpen down to web size, make vignette with lens correction filter. |
