![]() ![]() Click some times at the border of the skin to darken the parts evenly. Set the mode to “burn” and choose a brush in the size of his head. I have then worked on the layer with the man and used the Dodge/Burn tool to make the back of him a little darker. This does not have to be too exact, because most part of the hole is overlapped by the man anyway. Paint some shadowy parts on the bright ones to make these parts darker. Use the clone tool now to adjust the too bright parts of the sand in the hole which theoratically cannot be reached by the sun. Now make the layer with the man invisible (click the eye symbol). ![]() When coming to the first point complete the selection and inverse it (Selection / Invert) and delete the rest of the image. Select the climber by placing a selection point by point around his body. We only need some upper part of the image – I did this by just using the free select tool by havin zoomed in very much. Make the layer semitransparent and move the boy to an appropriate part of the hole where it looks good. This time i was searching for “climbing” and I thought the picture attached to the step would fit my needs. ![]() Next we’ve to create the illusion of a man sinking into the abyss that tries to hold out for help with his last bit of strength. Then set the layers mode to “Darken only”. Then press the canvas once to create a large soft black circle on the layer. Use the Paintbrush tool, use a soft big brush and black as foreground color. Create a new layer between the 2 desert photo layers To make look the hole deeper, more like an abyss ), we’ve to add some shadow. Now deactivate the selection by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+A and set the opacity back to 100%. Make a path around some part of the sand that should overlap (from the viewer of he scene) the sandy hole.Ĭreate a selection from the path by pressing ENTER/ RETURN – then apply a new layer mask by LAYER / MASK / NEW LAYER MASK: Choose “selection” from the pop up and add it. Now you should see the hole a little bit. Now move the underneath layer to the top and set the opacity of the layer to 75%. I’ve worked with the filter again – this time I used the “grow” mode and clicked the sand around the hole sometimes in a circle direction to get some small hills of sand around the hole. Take your time on this step – it is important! Maybe you have to reset the filter and try it again until the result is looking nice. Place the mouse below the chosen spot and hold the left mouse button while moving the mouse a few times from left to the right. Now find a part of the image where you want the create the abyss. The following values depend on the size of the filter window (under MS Windows the filter doesn’t allow resizing, isn’t it? – so for that OS you need to adjust the values (use smaller ones). We’re using the IWARP filter under Filter / Distorts / IWarp. The image was made by Pedro Szekelyĭuplicate the background layer and work on the upper one. Of course totally free and exclusive on )Įnough theory, lets get it on! Rightclick the download link at the beginning of this step and save the picture – then open it in GIMP. ![]() This is the actual work of the photo manipulation itself (steps 2-18).Īfter the main work the image is getting its final touch, like color corrections and adjustments, sharpness, noise etc… this is shown from step 19. I was again searching using the extended search for editible photos under a CC licence. This would be the step to collect all the images that are used for the editing. On I found this desert photo and when looking at it the idea of letting a man sink into a sandy abyss came up to me. In our case the idea came up when looking for a nice new desktop wallpaper. There the steps are separated in this way: The workflow of a good photo manipulation is somehow similar to video production. Category: Digital Paintings & Composings.We will let a young man sink into the abyss that tries to hold out until help is finally coming in form of a helicopter that whirles some sand when landing! The tutorial offers the complete workflow of a photo manipulation from idea to post-production. You could also call it quicksand, although real quicksand does not have such big and visible holes. Motivation This tutorial shows a way to create an abyss in a sandy environment. ![]()
