Alright kiddies. Once again it's another installment of the Banneresque series of coloring tutorials! Yay! Yes, I can just sense your enthusiasm.
Anyways, I shall quit with my banter and go on with the tutoring!


Step Uno: Grab your base
For this lovely tutorial, I am using a picture of the even lovlier Gaspard Ulliel, who was seriously born to play Edward and some people just can't see that, but ANYWAYS.

Seriously. This man is smokin.

Step Two: Minor Tweeks (OPTIONAL)
When I was creating this graphic, as I kept doing my coloring layers, I noticed some slight pixelated so I blured a couple of areas.
Blurred Areas:

''

Step Six: Yellerrr
Make a new layer (Layer>>New Layer), fill it with the color: D3C205 and set it to Soft Light @ 100% Opacity, which yes, makes a slightly ugly yellow hue to everything but really, it looks better in the end.


Step Seven: Mas Color
Create a new selective color adjustment layer, and input these settings:

which gives the resultsss of


Step Eight:Mooore Color
New selective color adjustment layer, again, i'm starting to sense a pattern..., with these settings

which gives these results


Step Nine: Layered

Step Sixteen: Balancenco
Layer >> New Adjustment Layer >> Color Balance, with these settings

to give this


Step Seventeen: Radical duddeeee
NOW! Here's the fun part. Create a new layer. Hit cntrl+alt+shift+e on your keyboard. This merges everything that you've done onto that one layer. Now go to Filter >> Blur >> Radial Blur and look at this:

What you have to do is drag the center a little off to the right, because Edward, i'm sorry Gaspard, is off to the right a bit. It doesn't quite have to be exact, just..near him.
When I did this, I got this:

Now all you have to do is take a fairly large soft edged eraser, and just click once in the center, where he is. Once yuo've done the erasing, set the layer to Soft Light @40% Opacity


Step Eighteen: Texxtturization Meh
Remember that texture from step three? Yes. Duplicate it, drag it to the top, and hit it to Screen.

to give

I don't know why I did it twice. It seems stupid, now that I think about it.

Step Nineteen: Seein' Double
Create a new layer. Hit cntrl+alt+shift+e. Resize it, cntrl+t, make it smaller and move it off to the left side of his head. Using a large soft edged eraser, set it to soft light.

To get..this. It's quite lovely.

Step Twenty: Bow chicka wah wah
Now. Duplicate that last layer. And then, we're going to blur it again. I honestly don't have any pictures to this describe it, and to only say, move the blur center off to the left side. Yeah. Once you have the blur, just erase some that'll spread, and set the blur layer to soft light, and lower the opacity a bit.


And then, you're done! Just add some text, border, whatever!



It's soo purrrty!!
