Photoshop CS2 Blend Tutorial #1

READ FIRST!

Okie.. so here's 1st type of blend me gonna show you how to do! Just follow the steps and you should get what I have. I might be providing some useful tips too.. you may never know xD

Also... this is not the way I ALWAYS do blends, don't expect yours to come out like mine does xD

THIS TUT IS FOR AMATUERS.. BEGINNERS, MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING xD

(Do not reproduce any part of this tutorial ANYWHERE w/o my permission! It took me heaps of work and time to produce this tut... but I may be exaggerating x))

We will blend these two pics: http://www.fergiebr.com/galeria/albums/photoshoots/2006/fergie_blendshe_collection/bepbrasil_fergiebr_fergie_blendshe1.jpg and http://www.fergiebr.com/galeria/albums/photoshoots/2006/fergie_blendshe_collection/bepbrasil_fergiebr_fergie_blendshe2.jpg

1. Copy those graphics and paste them into your photoshop...

You should have THIS:

2. Okay, so the graphic is way too big. Let's resize it!

-- BTW, if you don't like the copyright thingie, you can resize the image a little lesser than I did.

And follow my settings...

3. Now do the same to the other pic.

4. Now you have both resized pics... transfer them over into one window. (I said amatuers, right? I'm not telling how to do this, you guys should know how to already xD) Transfer them over... and you get this:

5. YAAAAY BLENDING xD

(I got the copyright thing out)

As you can see, part of the first image is overlapping the other... so let's erase that part with a moderately soft and medium-sized eraser.

You get this:

6. Then, shift the layer you just erased a little further in, so Fergie doesn't have to be banana split >.< Or, I should say, Dutchess split...

As you can see, when I shift it, there is still excess white, so let's get rid of that. Take particular caution to the areas circled... erase them nicely so that people won't think you're a goon xD

7. Okay, we're done with the blending.. now here's the second most important part: The decoration. Add whatever you want.. colourize it.. brushes.. patterns... I added my whole lot of junk and here's how it turned out:

Really, how nice your blend looks depends on your taste... the way you arrange the brushes, which brushes you use etc etc... anyway this is the simplest of the simplest blends, just hope this helps.. feel free to post your results here (please use the pics I used, or I take it you're not following the tutorial.. although you can use this method to blend as well)

HOPE THIS HELPED =D
