Description Friends and family, even random people, that seen my humble art, asks me how I do manipulations.
As an easy way, to show people that might not know how something that can seem really advanced can be done in 5 min, I decided to make tutorials. This way I don't have to explain several times
The tutorials might not be of the most advanced type all the time, and I think/hope i'm fairly good at explaining things.

Feel free to comment on it and say what I could improve, or even what my next tutorial could be about.

Thanks;
For The stock image ([link] ) that I used for the manipulation.

Om jag ska gå rent uppläggningsmässigt så vore det inte fel med lite mer strukturering på upplägget av bild och text. Hålla linjer och storlek. Men jag är ju lite arbetsskadad så jag märker av sånt där rätt mycket numer

Hmm, I do it a different way.
I guess that works, but wouldn't it be easier to go back and edit if you did ctrl/cmd + J and put it on a new layer and then just did ctl/cmd + U and changed the hue there?

you can also on a different layer pick the color you want then do difference clouds and then do a color dodge and it works

Yeah, ofc you can. I just made one of many many ways of colouring things.

Personally I don't change colour after i made up my mind about it. Since that's part of my experiments. And since people asked for a tutorial of how I make my pics then i did it in my way. If they want to read someone elses tutorial then they can do that Not forcing people to think that the way I do it is perfect and suits them best.
