Two pieces of Photoshop work - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

First time I use photoshop + tigital tablet to draw a persons faces, tough work, but a good lesson indeed.

this second one was done this morning, I was doing some things for ps class... and well, I figured I might as well throw them together.

Cheers!

( I like them..)

Are you in art school / been formally educated? Your skill seems far above a mere hobbyist like myself. Any good tutorials to suggest?

The chin of the girl is the most impressive to me.. you've managed to suggest a 3D diffrentiation there without a hard line or anything. I know that the chin ends and the neck starts, but my brain has a hard time knowing HOW it knows.

Likewise, did you do all those background stars by hand in the second picture?

I wouldn't so much say it's a hobbie, but more of a passion... a passion in progress.
I currently have some courses relating to graphics but they taught me few and far between the useful aspects of photoshop that I hadn't already known.

The chin area, I believe I took her main base skin color, darkened it a little then used a 30px soft brush with a 30% flow. Once I liked the area I covered, I took a fat soft eraser brush (40-50px) and just went over it until it was very subtle.

The stars themselves were done using a grain filter on a black background. Then doubled the layer, increasing it's size, rotated it, made sure they were Linear Dodge. Carefuly erased, then clone tooled - making them look clustered. Then blurred (to create the cloud effect behind it). Finalized with a hue/saturation (colorize) and lens flares.
