Halo effect around head (Photoshop tut)

[sms_solver]

*img220.exs.cx/img220/1362/mmeffect2a6xb.th.jpg

The color image at left-top is of a HW actress, which has been changed into other 3 images with different halos around her head.

This is the unique photoshop effect that I have developed while experimenting. I have not learnt it from any book nor got it from the net. The methods required are simple tasks and the application of the filter. So if anybody had already achieved this effect, then it will be the case of mere coincidence.

I've not prepared a tutorial for it yet. I will be posting the tutorial very soon. That's why the thread has title "Do u need tutorial for this (Photoshop)". If somebody think that he/she can achieve the same effect/result just by seeing any one of the three results: u are free to try. If u manage to get desired result do post your result and the process u have followed.

Until the tutorial gets its way to this thread, people wanting this effect for themselves can post their photographs or pm me.

Thanks!

Nice one.I want the same thing and even searched fir it on goodtutorials.

Anways koolbluez has done same thing to his picture but he used white colour for outlineing.

You masked the herione using various tools like PaintBrush or the Airbrush in QuickMask mode or Lassos or Pen tools.

Then on getting the actress selected, you made a layer via cut.

Then you desaturated the layer via cut and maybe did some color tuning to make it look attractive.

Then simply you used the outer glow layer effect with some contouring and other effects like spread, size etc. customized to get that outline.

Simple, ain't it???


Hey the girls really cute

I have given my way! Now see how it is different from yours

so, it was the neon glow???? I was surprised on how you got the inert glow on the girl.

The second girl's cute too

The outer glow method is better, i suppose..

Mix it with a suitable inner glow, and voila, all ur cutting mistakes r hidden.
