Grey Wolf with Bright Eyes
posted by photoboy27
Create a nice grey wolf with bright eyes, perfect for your signature or banner.
1. Open your wolf image.
2. Take the Lasso Tool and make a selection of both eyes. (It is good to zoom in the image so you can make a better selection; also, to select both eyes, after you make a selection around one eye, hold the Shift key and make a selection around the other eye).
3. Now hit Ctrl+J (this will make a new layer only with the eyes). Now select your initial layer (click on it) and desaturate it (Image > Adjustments > Desaturate or Ctrl+Shift+U). Then go to Image > Adjustments > Brightness/Contrast and make the image more brighter (play with the slides until you get the desired effect). Here’s mine.
4. Your image will now look like this.
5. Now select the eyes layer and desaturate it also (exactly as you did in step 3. After that select the eyes (Hold Ctrl key and click on the layer). Open up the Hue/Saturation box and use this settings (if you play a little with the slides you can see you can get more nice colors, like red or blue..i made mine green).
6. And you’re done.
7. As I said at the start of the tutorial, you can now use your image for whatever you want. Here are some nice signature examples.
