Tutorial: Supernatural Purgatory

[kj_svala]

I`m going to add this tutorial to the comm, only because I don`t want to loose it in case my toaster, aka the laptop, dies.

This is the base coloring I used for my SPN Purgatory Animations. I`ve tried a lot of settings for the caps, nothing turned out the way I wanted it to be. Then I thought I try something completely different = result

This is my (very own) Purgatory coloring in a few easy steps

Progam used: PaintShopPro9 (it`s nothing fancy, so: translatable)

Layer, from bottom to top:

1. resize the cap, use it as base

2. copy base - layer setting: soft light 100%

3. copy base - layer setting: screen 100%

4. copy base - layer setting: screen 100%

5. color fill layer, solid color - #000080 - exclusion 50%

6. color fill layer, solid color - #c6ac7e - screen 90%

7. copy base, drag it on top of all previous layer - layer setting: soft light 30%

8. copy all layer, paste as new layer - layer setting: soft light 100%

merge all layer, done


This is the new base cap I worked with for the animations

Sometimes I`ve added an automatic colorbalance to the new base cap. The numbers I used changed. At the end, the number used for the automatic colorbalance is just a matter of taste.
