In today’s tutorial you will learn how to give a photo a complete glamour style using patterns and masks in Adobe Photoshop. Layered PSD file included. Let’s get started!
Start working by finding a stock photo with a model represented on it, I used this photo from deviantart. I would like to thank the author of this photo.
Next we’ll represent a pattern. In this case we need a new file (File>New) with the size 69px by 69px (RGB color mode) at a resolution of 100 pixels/inch and apply here the Ellipse Tool (U) to represent three ellipses. The pattern doesn’t have a background.
Set Fill to 0% for this layer and click Add a layer style icon from bottom part of the Layers panel to select Stroke.
We’ve got the next result:
Using the same tool, it’s possible to represent the next ellipse:
Set Fill to 0% for this layer and go to Layer Style>Stroke
We’ve got the next effect:
Continue working by applying the Ellipse Tool (U) to represent the next ellipse:
Set Fill to 0% for this layer and click Add a layer style icon from bottom part of the Layers panel to select Stroke.
We’ve got the next pattern:
Put together the ellipses layers into one single layer. In this case press CTRL button, select the layers in Layer panel and finally press CTRL+E to Merge Down. Choose Edit > Define Pattern. Enter a name for the pattern in the Pattern Name dialog box.
Get back to the girl’s document and create a new layer. Choose Edit > Fill to fill the new layer. In the Fill dialog box, for Use, choose Pattern, select recent created pattern from the pop-up panel, and click OK.
Set Fill to 30% for this layer in Layers panel. Using the Eraser Tool (E), try to erase those zones on the face demonstrated on the next picture:
Set the Blending mode to Overlay for this layer.
Find a stock photo with an electric guitar:
Remove the background using your favorite tools like Pen Tool (P), Magic Wand Tool (W), Magnetic Lasso (L) or even a simple Filter>Extract and insert it on a new layer in our main document. The appropriate corrections on its placement and sizes may be done with the Free Transform (Ctrl+T) command.
Click on the same layer on the bottom part of the Layers panel on Add layer mask icon and choose a Soft Round brush of black color (Opacity 50%)
Use this brush to paint in the mask to hide the guitar the same way indicated below:
Make a copy of the layer containing the electric guitar and select then the Free Transform (Ctrl+T) command to place the copy as it is shown on the next image:
Next we need to add the mask on the copy’s layer too, the same way we did with the very first guitar. Choose in this case a Soft Round brush of black color (Opacity 50%) to hide the guitar the same way as below:
Set the Blending mode to Screen for both layers with guitar.
Create a new layer and select here a Soft Round brush of white color.
Use this brush to represent many illuminated spots of different diameter:
Click Add a layer style icon from bottom part of the Layers panel to select Outer Glow.
We’ve got the next result:
Choose again the Ellipse Tool (U) to represent a small ellipse:
