First, make a mask of a girl's photo. Click the button in the circle and you will get a white square in the photo layer. Then, use the black pen tool or brush tool to erase the background. Please make sure that you are dealing with the white box, not the photo itself. )
Step 2: Adjust the hue/saturation of the image, and drag the middle anchor point to the gray area to make the model gray. Another simpler method is to hold down CMD+Shift+U (CTRL key in PC is usually the same as cmd key in Mac). Create a new blank layer and put it at the bottom. Perform a new layer of fill coating solid color on it. Adjust the size of the model photo. Through adjustment, I slightly reduced the photo to make it more suitable for the work. The shortcut key for resizing is cmd+T. (In the state of resizing, try to hold down shift, ctrl or cmd occasionally to get different effects. )
Third, copy the layer. Execute layer copy layer (model layer) or press cmd+J. Then perform layer creation and clipping mask. Now there should be a small arrow on the top floor pointing to the lower floor.

Fourth, process the top layer. Perform image adjustment shadows/highlights. Click the checkbox Show More Options, then change the number of shadows to 100 and adjust the midtone contrast to-100. Then use the filter to blur Gaussian blur, and the radius value is about 3.0. Then change the blending mode from normal to bright. The Opacity check box is next to the blending mode, and make sure that its value is 70%. In addition, in this clipping mask layer, cover the face with a mask to make the face less blurred. If all your steps are correct, it will look like the picture below.
5. Copy the model layer at the bottom and put it at the top, then set it as a clipping mask. Then, perform image adjustment shadow/highlight at the top level. Refer to the parameters in the figure below, and finally brighten in the mixed mode.
Sixth, copy the top level. This time, only the right hand of the model is used to cover the rest. Then perform image adjustment curve. If the adjusted appearance is not as white as you want, change the blending mode to light color. Copy the layer on the right. Select two right-hand layers at the same time and merge them by performing layer merging. Set this layer as a clipping mask.
Seven, set the background to black. Double-click the layer, select color overlay, double-click the red square, and select black. Open your splash picture in another window, and then select a color range. When you have the desired selection, click OK. In many cases, what you don't want is selected in this constituency, so perform selection inversion to correct it. Now, drag the splash picture into our work window. Convert the picture to grayscale by executing cmd+shift+u, and repeat step 7 to make it whiter.

Eight, use the mask to correct the splash and make it coordinate with the model's boots. In addition, this layer should be placed at the top, not in the clipping mask of the model. Then according to your own wishes, use a splash brush to smear around. Use different transparencies in different places to get a good light feeling after mixing. In addition, you can add some other special brushes. It should be noted that these operations are all carried out in the mask. Remember: the two model layers should always be at the top, and so far, everything else we put in should be at the bottom. Now let's add some splash. Insert a new splash screen picture, or copy a previous picture.
Nine, use a splash brush to add different colors to different layers.
10. Create a new layer on the background layer and draw a triangle with the lasso tool. When the triangle selection is activated, use a brush to smear outside the selection to achieve such a cool effect.
Eleven, go back to the white background layer again, and add more gray in the middle. Double-click the layer and set the following parameters.

Twelve, add more splash, but this time draw behind the model layer, not on the mask. Draw some triangles and circles. I added purple to triangles and white to circles, and reduced their opacity. You can also find these graphics in the palette of the shape tool. Create a line with the lasso tool, make it exist in the line made in the previous background, and then move it up slightly. In this way, you get additional effects. In this line, I used purple, and the opacity was reduced to 5%.
Thirteen, put some balls at work, or other things you like. I put some of my little things in Illustrator and added some effects with grid tools. Then, I pasted them into Photoshop and changed its blending mode to a color filter. Draw some shadows behind these things with a brush. In addition, you can also tone these shadows with white.

Fourteen, light effect. I will show you how to make those lighting effects. However, this is just a cursory look, and it takes a little practice to master it yourself.
Make some twinkling stars and polish their white parts, which will make them really shine. Finally, add something simple.
16. Check your image carefully and look for those unnatural places. My hands are a little strange at the moment. Create a new layer and put it on the clipping mask of the model. Draw the edge of the hand with a white brush to make it look sweet. Next is the final product!

How to make illustrations with PS? How to make illustrations with PS
1. Create a new canvas, fill the gradient background, and draw the hills with the pen tool.
2. Draw a trunk with the "rectangle" tool and several branches with the "pen" tool.
3. Put it under the trunk layer, merge the layers and copy more trees.
4. Adjust the size of the tree to make it look more layered.
5. Draw some small stars at the back, and then draw a gradual big moon.
6. You can add the silhouette of some small animals according to your personal preference, and then the illustration can be completed.
PS photos to hand-drawn illustrations (with characters) For us who have been obsessed with countless comics, how happy it is to be able to turn photos of our travels and parties into illustrations/comics, as if we could create our own comic world. Let me share my creative process here. Let's put a comparison chart before and after:
There are many photo-to-illustration tutorials on the Internet, but only photos with pure scenery can look good, and people's photos always have the feeling of "knowing at a glance that they are photos". So I added some hand-drawing on the basis of the online tutorial to make the final effect more like hand-drawing.
First of all, we should turn the photos into illustrations. There are many such tutorials, and the better one is: PS saves the hand cancer party for three minutes to learn the hand-drawn illustration style. You can refer to it, so I won't repeat it here. The effect is as follows:
If there is any deviation in the effect made by everyone, it may be that I adjusted the color when I made it (I can't remember it for too long).
In fact, after the first step, it has been very feel, but I prefer the animation style, and the characters above are still partial to oil painting. So, according to the characters in the photo, make a new line draft and color it, and it's done:
Poof, I'm kidding, but the script really needs to be typed first, so you can use your imagination. You don't have to stick to the original picture, just handle the perspective and interaction of the scene. In order to see clearly, I reduced the transparency of the background:
Please forgive my 50-point hand-drawing skill (covering my face). In fact, no matter how you paint it, it won't be too bad after coloring the beautiful scenery.
Here you can refer to some hand-painted coloring techniques. I'm Xiao Bai, so I won't embarrass myself. However, it can provide a simple way to pick some bright and bright colors and draw solid colors for people. The simpler it is, the more hand-drawn illustration it feels. Or refer to the color matching in the works of Miyazaki Hayao and Xinghai City, all of which are very bright. Coloring effect:
Finally, combining characters and scenes, pay attention to the occlusion relationship (in fact, the girl behind the pillar in the above picture has already handled the occlusion relationship), and you can add some shadows to enhance the sense of reality. Ps can only erase a little of the original words in the soap chip. Another very important element is the sky, which can set off the atmosphere very strongly In terms of hue, my scene is a little yellow-green, so I also chose the sky with this hue. There can't be too many clouds in the sky, otherwise it will steal the host's attention and the audience will be attracted to the sky involuntarily. I chose Makoto Shinkai's Sky, and the final draft is as follows:
This article only talks about the basics. Interested children's shoes can be hand-painted after in-depth study, and you can draw more awesome works. But painting in photos is more important than technology, such as the works of Swedish illustrator JohanTh_rnqvist:
Expand your imagination, I believe everyone can create interesting illustrations with your photos.
