January 28, 200719 yr I've just got Photoshop CS2, And after following a guide, I didn't understand :? , I started messing around, And came up with these two. It's also not me. Any advice on improving? Remember, It's my very first time. My dA account..retired, as of the 1st January 2008.
January 28, 200719 yr nice, simple. Remember to keep focus on the eyes - thus try to get rid of every other detail. 01 vet :)
January 28, 200719 yr nice, simple. Remember to keep focus on the eyes - thus try to get rid of every other detail. simple way to do that, duplicate that layer into a new one, do a 5-10 px gausion blur, then use a transparency gradient, with the clear part focusing around the eye. PJB21 100% my own work, i make my own brushes: set 1 set 2

PJB21 Gaussian blur :P I'd say select anything outside the face and Gaussian that instead, the faces are good enough. 01 vet :)
January 28, 200719 yr Author Dupe the layer of the eyes? Or layer of the face? My dA account..retired, as of the 1st January 2008.
January 28, 200719 yr either flatten or just the face, the eyes arnt going to be blurred in the final thing. ill do a quick example myself, will post the result =) PJB21 100% my own work, i make my own brushes: set 1 set 2
January 28, 200719 yr Author Ok thanks, Your going to have to go through it step by step :wink: Are you also using CS2? My dA account..retired, as of the 1st January 2008.
January 28, 200719 yr no, i use paint.net (see sig) this is what i did. copy the original you posted into the program, duplicated the layer twise, un-ticked the top layer, 5 px gaus blur on middle layer, gradient tool, transparency setting, circle gradient, started in the middle of face (eyes) and went out a bit, ticked top layer, did 30 px gaus blur, again transparency gradient, but wider this time. im sure you can do the same thing in cs2, i just dont know how >_< PJB21 100% my own work, i make my own brushes: set 1 set 2
January 28, 200719 yr Author Oh wow, I love it. I'll figure it out, I'm no expert, But I'm getting there.. I think. My dA account..retired, as of the 1st January 2008.
