I like the way you blurred the edges to add depth of field. That never would have occurred to me. Very nice!

I'm just saying, that's a pretty bad tutorial, considering the end result is not that good.

This is a great tutorial (thanks so much!) but I have a question:

How exactly do you adjust the colours to make it match? I can never seem to get it right.

BlazesStarGirl [2009-06-12 07:42:42 +0000 UTC]

oo i just discovered u and right before i go to sleep too!! wheeee lol um idk if you do the gaussian blur thing a lot but you can apply the blur, open history, set the blur action as your history brush, then click the action before the blur, and then use the history brush to set the blur where you want it and whatever opacity you want it just like a regular brush ^^ its quicker or at least with the latest version of photoshop it is... they took away all the short cuts and its .... yea... not happy lol

BlazesStarGirl In reply to Dreamer-Of-Fate [2009-09-07 19:53:31 +0000 UTC]

no problem! it works great but sometimes it makes it blotchy... havent figured out a cure for that except using the brush on the color setting
