Could some one do a Tutorial for an Image Like This?


it is basically a tned down version of the obama hope style poster just google a tutorial on that and play with the colours.
 
I saw a tutorial for the Obama poster but it was in Illustrator..
I might have a try in Photoshop..will keep you posted..!
 
Here you go:

there are a few other techniques in your example like the horizontal lines. It looks like the wind filter but ... not exactly ... may be a texture. I've seen this before and I can't remember the technique but if I find it, I'll get back to you. There are also some gradients used. You may want to experiment with the posterize and threshold adjustments to transform your subject, then play with the colors.

In order to put in the colors, you should make a selection of the white or brightest area after you make the adjustment, then mask or delete it to create transparency, or if it is white, without making a selection you can go to the blending area and use the blend if sliders to "erase" the white. If you want to know more about this, come back on to this thread, even if it is a later date (many of us keep our email notifications).

"may be a texture" oops, meant pattern

I agree about the clipping. That is certainly the case. IDK how much PS you do but you could get confused if you try to take this all in at once. I'd suggest that you try some of the techniques and as you work through it, come back for more recommendations for the next step in the process (as it looks like there are a few processes here).

That's just my suggestion :D
 
Interesting. Good thinking. Could be alright. Lots of vector art. Of course, if Rainy doesn't have AI, he could come up with a reasonable facsimile in PS.
 
I played around with this idea, partly because I've only tried it once or twice, the first time using the Obama tutorial. This image is by Mike Campau & Seventh Street. This took me more steps than the original artist made. Or maybe not, but rephrasing, I'd say more experimental steps. I created a pattern with the pen tool for the horizontal lines on the face, but doubt that it was done as a blend mode overlay as I did. Just using a pen tool to make a repeating pattern and transforming it when necessary, clipping it to the desired layer, ie: face, clothes, may be the method used. Anyway, it was a fun experiment as I had the time today. So thanks for the question! :twisted:

I know that neither of these are exactly what you want (not trying to hijack your thread :} ) but if you are interested on what I did or any part of it, let me know and I'll detail it best I can.
