rhythmworx Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Think you pretty much nailed it there, great photo and far better than what I could do. The only critique I can think of is to clone out the white bits on the left sides of the iris. Good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fimgirl Posted May 28, 2014 Author Share Posted May 28, 2014 Thanks for the feedback. Very encouraging. What I need to address, and hope someone can help, is a consistent workflow. It may well be that it's irrelevalent and all down to experimentation and adaptation to taste but maybe others have a process that they adhere to and apply to obtain some basic consistency. At this early stage I don't really know what I'm looking for but am curious as to what I may be missing. Hopefully the more experienced workers can come aboard.

sunshine51 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 FG... I was gonna expound on what MJP hacked in the above post however presets are rather personal. Have a go with this and save often. Then delete what doesn't work 4U in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tywais Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Had to look up grunge art photography. Looks like an interesting concept but my artistic skills are not, let's say, refined. May have to give it a go. For others who may not be familiar with the methods of doing it here is one video to give an example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fimgirl Posted May 30, 2014 Author Share Posted May 30, 2014 Interesting. In one of the accompanying videos it explains the use of the white and black brush to add and delete. The old Photoshop had a specific tool for this which is not in CS6. Finding this has really been helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhythmworx Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 (edited) FG I think a good thing to experiment with is texture wrapping/displacement mapping, here is an example I just threw together in about 15 mins if they were my own photos I could happily spend hours editing. OK, It's not grungy but you can use any texture you want eg...shoot the texture of a paving slab or a cracked and flaky painted door, the bark on a tree etc...it's quite an enjoyable technique to work with. After you have used the layer mask (in this case the eyes and mouth) add some Gaussian blur to smooth out the edges of the mask, use some desaturation on the mapped texture and also use the layer opacity on the layer to get the result you want.

MJP Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Curious as to how you've lit that. No lighting - I "painted" it in. Here's the original That poor woman. I hope she received proper medical care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
