"Zero-based photoshop, 18 Lessons from Little White to Great God"
Lesson 4: PS cosmetic surgery makes your photos beautiful 100 times.
1. Treating skin defects
Import material -Ctrl+J copy layer -Ctrl+ plus sign enlarge canvas-stain repair brush tool (J)- stain repair brush tool to remove moles-repair brush tool to handle stockings drawing.
Touch Brush Tool: [Type] Content identification, which will identify the pixels around the place to be modified and fill it in the selected place.
Repair brush tool: press and hold Alt key to click the source point that defines the image to be repaired, and fill the skin at the clicked position to the brush position.
Repair tool: directly select an area, move to the position where pixels need to be replaced, and then release your hand.
The difference between the repair brush tool (J) and the imitation stamp tool (S):
The pixels selected by the former will automatically merge with the surrounding color pixels, and the edges will be soft and gentle. The latter takes pixels and replaces them to the target position, and the edge is stiff. Brush tool is recommended for repairing portraits, while imitation stamp tool is recommended for cleaning walls.
Step 2: grinding treatment
Right-click the layer to turn it into a smart object.
Defects must be fixed before they are converted into smart objects, otherwise they cannot be fixed after conversion. After conversion, you don't need to use the color correction command of "New Fill or Adjust Layer", you can directly use Image-Adjust-Color Balance (-13, +8, -5), and a smart filter with color balance will be automatically generated under the layer, which can be modified by double-clicking.
Filter-Blur-Surface Blur (radius 9 pixels, threshold 7). At this time, a smart filter with fuzzy surface will be automatically generated under the layer, and you can double-click to modify it.
3. Facial features/limb modification
Face and upper arm
Filter-Liquefaction (if it doesn't work, it means that the version doesn't support using this effect under smart objects, so it can only be converted into a normal layer)-Check the advanced mode-Enlarge the canvas-Forward deformation tool to push the cheekbones and mandibular angles inward-Folding tool to click on the upper arm to make it thinner (fine-tune it by combining the Forward deformation tool).
(1) Forward Deformation Tool
Generally used for face-lifting treatment. The brush should not be too small, otherwise it will push unevenly.
Size: Zoom the brush. ( 150)
Concentration: control the eclosion range. (47)
Pressure: control the twisting speed. (46)
Rate: the distortion rate when clicking. (not lit)
(2) Reconstruction tool: directly restore the state before adjustment.
(3) Smoothing tool: make the edge smoother and slowly restore the state before adjustment.
(4) Folding tool
Size: 200
Concentration: 50
Pressure: 1
Speed: 80
(5) Turn left tool (not used for the time being)
Can be used to spoof, distort the five senses, turn left in, turn right out.
thigh
Freeze the mask tool to smear the areas around the thighs that you don't want to be affected (hands, calves, jeans, walls)-Fold the thighs inward-Fine tune the forward deformation tool-Unfreeze the mask tool to erase, or the mask option "None".
Eyes and eyebrows
The Freeze Mask tool smears one eye-the Forward Deformation tool pushes the eyebrows up to be flush with the other side-and the Expansion tool clicks on the eye (the brush is adjusted to the size that can frame the eye).
4. Color correction
"Create a new fill or adjust layer" is in the lower right corner-color balance.
Midtones:-12,+1, +5.
Shadows: +3, +3, +32
Highlights:+14, +8, -9
In the lower right corner, "Create a New Fill or Adjust Layer"-Photo Filter-Cooling Filter (LBB)- the density is 8%.
"New Fill or Adjust Layer" in the lower right corner-Natural Saturation (-10).
