Photoshop Vampire Tutorial

Vampire Tutorial Photoshop


This is the original image before I edited it. 
This is the image after I have edited it in order to transform the woman into a vampire.

To create this effect I used the Sponge, Burn and Magnetic Lasso tools.

First I used to Sponge tool to make the skin a grey colour, this gives the effect that the woman is cold and dead because these are the connotations that the colour grey has.

After this I then used the burn tool to create dark eyes and create a darker area around the eyes. I then used the tool to make the lips stand out more as they are a brighter shade of red.

To create the vampire teeth I used the Magnetic Lasso tool, then selected copy via layer and used the warp transformation. I then pulled the teeth down to create pointed vampire looking teeth.

After creating the teeth I put a blood splatter effect on her left cheek, to use this i downloaded some brushes and changed the size and orientation to create this effect.

Photoshop - Spot Healing Brush Tool: 

Before: 

This is the original image before I used the spot healing brush tool. as you can see there are a lot of red spots on the face as well as red patches of skin.

After

I used the Spot Healing Brush tool to brush out the red spots and red patches of skin, as you can see there has been an improvement in the condition of the skin and the patchy red areas of skin.













For his task I used the spot heal tool brush and clicked alt to the the skin tone similar and changed the brush size depending on the size of the spots, and as I went round her face i selected different samples of skin in order to keep the skin tones a similar colour. I used duplicate layers and selected all layers, this enabled me to correct mistakes without erasing all the work I had already done.

All layers, duplicate layers


To Improve I would use the Spot Healing Brush further in order to make the skin a more white colour rather than have the red patches of skin, they were hard to get rid of because of the amount of them on the face.
