Sam's GIMP Colouring Tut.

[samster911]

Okay so this is my first tutorial so if i don't explain anything properly i'm sorry.
and if you have any questions just ask . =)
Only made one cause alot of people asked me to. :P
I'm pretty sure this is translatable to other programs.

We will be going from thishttp://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r305/samster911/newER/Untitledmil.pngto thishttp://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r305/samster911/newER/milestut.png

1. Crop your image how ever you like.
2. Do a channel mixer.
make sure perserve luminosity is on.
Red
190
-70
20

Blue
-60
200
48.9

3. Make a new layer and choose a colour you want to stand out more.
brush over that place with the bursh tool and set the layer to colour.
(As you probably noticed in the example, i did her lips).
4. Make a new layer and fill it with #4e1111 set it to screen
5. Make a new layer again and fill it with #d2e4e2 and set it to multiply
6. Go back to the background layer and duplicate it.
7. Set it to softlight at 56.7 Opacity and drag it to the top layer.
8. You can flatten the image and sharpen it if you wish.
