This tutorial is divided into two parts. In the first part we have seen that it is easy to create custom brushes and prepare a set unique and fantastic.
In the second part we will create a graphic composition using custom brushes, vector graphics, Blending and your imagination.
Take camera (do you have your photos, the final job will be even more original) and photographed from different angles, the following actors in the scene:
- your favorite sneaker
- a person who stretches
- a wall consumed
- set of custom brushes (paint stains, splashes of color on white paper, crayons, smoke coming ... everywhere I'll allow your imagination)
PART 2: THE GENIUS OF ALL STAR
1. BACKGROUND
Open the canvas at the first level of work and create a gradient that goes from white to black (Select the Gradient tool and set the two colors, gradient type Reflected and draw a line that goes from the center toward up)
2. GRAFFITI WALL E
enter at a level above the image of the wall with an opacity level to 80% and remove any color information (from the menu Image> Adjustments> Desaturate) if it is Your rating drawn directly above this level some symbols and numbers to make your funky wall.
Wall Duplicate the layer (right click on the layer palette and Duplicate Layer from the menu or Layer> Duplicate Layer).
Go to menu Image> Adjustments> Hue Saturation. Click the check Colorize and move the sliders until you get a tone that recalls the colors of the shoe that you photographed.
With the Move tool, move the second wall slightly downward and to the left.
3. FANTASY BRUSH .
Create your own set of custom brushes as shown in the first part of the tutorial.
With a color that recalls the tone of your shoe, on a new layer, insert a large brush on the lower left. Must be an explosive effect.
4. ALL STAR .
Now is the time to play your shoe.
Open a folder in the layer palette that will contain all levels relating to the subject.
Place your favorite photo of the angle in order to have a base to be used as standard.
Obtain the main color of the fabric. Select the Pen tool and draw the shape of the colored part of the shoe.
5.
With the same tool and selecting different colors according to the zones, create the rubber shoe and details. Cercate di ragionare “a forma” lo strumento Penna è nato per lavorare in vettoriale per costruire un oggetto si deve scomporlo mentalmente in diverse forme sovrapposte in modo da riprodurlo nel modo esatto.
Nella parti della gomma in rilivievo si posso utilizzare pattern personalizzati : utilizzate lo stesso metodo che avete sfruttato per personalizzare i pennelli e scegliete l'opzione Definisci pattern da menù Modifica. In questo modo potrete fotografare la trama originale della gomma, importarla..contrastarla e trasformarla in un pattern.
Con 2 click sull'angolo destro del livello active (layers palette) will open the dialog box on the Layer Style. Go to Pattern Overlay and scroll down to choose the one you created. Change the opacity of the pattern before pressing ok.
6. Holes for the loops
With the Shape Tool> Ellipse create small circles for the laces. Each circle consists of two ellipses: one inside a small solid color, a gray exterior to a lower level.
The ellipse inside: add a layer style by creating inner shadow or a bevel down. The outer ellipse: it will rather like a Drop Shadow layer style and a bevel on.
Move the sliders with various Layer Style to suit your needs, do not be afraid to try anything until you ok succedderà actually dates to your work.
7. Lacquer and finish
using the methods explained here until you can easily add detail to the shoe as stickers, ties (to achieve the latter we used a pattern textured canvas board).
8. SEAMS
For the seams we've created a brush drawing by hand with a pencil on paper two parallel lines and not regular (two sketches).
import it into the brush sets we have created various levels to draw the line of stitching. The separation on multiple levels will allow you to resize, and work on the seams that are not linear, but which must be inserted in the shoe that has folds or bends.
Select the layer with the brush you want to edit. Go to Edit> Transform and choose Altera. Moving the lines of the edit panel, you can give your brush a change appropriate to your work.
9. SHADOW
Below the layer group related to your shoe and above background levels, add a new level. Rectangular marquee tool selected, the bottom of the canvas (a little 'under the middle), and create a gradient from white to black as we did in the first level. In this way we will create a sort of base on which to place our shoes.
Duplicate the layer group of the shoe. Move below a level. Right click on the icon of the group in the Layers palette and choose Merge Group. In this way you will create a single level of the copy. Go to Edit> Transform> Flip Vertical.
Move down to match up to the debate to the bottom of the shoe sole. Distort through Edit> Transform> Distort and Warp.
Place a layer mask (the button is located footer in the Layers palette). With the Gradient tool draw on the mask from black to white so as to cover part of the shadow. If you prefer to make the reflection black and white image by removing saturation (Image> Adjustments> Desaturate).
10. Isolated GIRL
now included in the canvas photograph of the person who stretches. With the pen tool trace the exact outline of the shape that we want to insert the image (will pop up the shoe from the waist up). Work on high zoom, using many anchor points to be as specific as possible in the contour. The last anchor point must equal the first and so you close your path. Now holding down the CTRL key click on the icon on the level of the form you just created. Loads such a selection that matches the contour of the girl.
back to activate the level of photography with the right selection to choose Feather 1%. Copy and paste cropping and off the visibility of the original photograph and the shape created.
Now enter the level of cropping of the girl at a lower level of the front of the shoe and an upper level of the "retro".
12. CLOUD OF SMOKE
One of the most beautiful brushes that can be made with the function Define Brush is the effect of smoking. Photographed smoke clouds of various kinds and their bizarre shapes and make sure you create the brush.
Now insert them in your composition brush on both upper and lower levels of the shoe to the smoke to surround the subject of your composition.
13. END
learned the method you just need to give vent to your imagination by placing brush strokes, patterns, shapes and objects of all kinds to make your work unique.
