32nd Colouring

Why ... Why why why why why did I do it? I only wanted Remus! *sigh* Oh well, here's a very simple colour enhancement trick for dark caps feat. Harry Potter:



NOTE: If you are a newbie to icon making and you don't understand what's written here, you can always ask me or refer to my 22nd Colouring Tutorial, which was written entirely for beginners ((hence why it explains all the basic steps)).

NOTE 2: If you use, please credit! Don't steal my icons and tuts and claim them as your own 'cause I will FIND OUT WHO YOU ARE.

*ahem*

Crop and resize your base to 100 x 100, make a new layer, fill with #d5a499, set to Multiply 100%:

=

Duplicate base, bring to top, set to Dodge 100%, MERGE:

=

Go to Adjust > Colour Balance > Fade Correction: 45

=

Go to Adjust > Colour Balance > Grey World: 7621

=

That's it! Now you don't have to add anything to it if you don't want to but here's what I put in anyway:

VECTOR 1: “nothing”, white, Scriptina, size 14 no outline

VECTOR 2: “remains”, white, Vladimir Script, size 14, no outline


((Because David Bowie lyrics are just appropriate for anything XD))

et voila!


Little word of warning: This doesn't work with everything; so far I've only had it work on the playground scene in PoA and when I tried it on others like the train scene they just turned out rather red and saturated; it's all a matter of luck and, of course, tweeking ;)

Hope you like my tuts and please remember to credit; credit is love :D Enjoy!
