Photo Color Manip

One of many ways to achieve the follwing results...



An extensive tut on how to manipulate the facial elements in the above picture.

And using the almighty adjustment layers allows for total control and flexibility without damaging the original pixels.
A little delve into the use of the Pen Tool for smooth selections and use of the Extract Tool to separate difficult selections. (ie hair)

hope you enjoy

I enjoyed that tutorial.....especially the part with the extraction tool because I have never used it before (and I have been using Photoshop since v.3)!!!

for this tut - i thought id intorduce dynamic ways of doing the same thing in the one tut -- opens up a lot of areas for others, as u know

cheers

Yea, great tut Heath. And a darn nice site you got there...Bookmarked it ;)

That's an awesome tut there, thats one thing I never use the extract tool. And it shows too, I messed up the hair quite a bit, but I got the eyes, and lips out nicely.

I'm gonna keep practicing until I get the hair selection right.

Awesome tut thanks.
