Step 1
Start by opening the photo in Photoshop.Step 2
Select the Healing Brush Tool to remove skin defects if they are present on the photo.Step 3
We need to reduce brightness and increase contrast with Image > Adjustments > Brightness/Contrast.Step 3
Create a new layer (Ctrl+Shift+N). Select the Brush Tool and press F5 to open the window with Brush Presets or go to Window > Brush. Select Soft Brush, 80px and 20% hardness. Change foreground color to #230b47. Choose Shape Dynamics option and update Control to Pen Pressure (if you have a graphics tablet). If not leave the Control option off and we will work with the computer mouse. Apply the brush to the photo background. Finally, change layer opacity to 70%.Step 4
Create a new layer above all other layers. Now we need to create the ear shape. Select the Eyedropper Tool and click on the face area to get the color sample. Now with the Brush Tool (soft brush) start creating an ear shape and use other colors and different brush sizes to get a more real ear.
Change layer mode to Soft Light.
Load selection of the layer with the ear (press Ctrl and click ear layer thumbnail on layers palette).
Select the ear texture layer. Invert selection with Selection >
Invert and press the Delete button to clear selected area. Remove
selection with Ctrl+D.
Change layer blending mode to Color.
Create a new layer on top. Set foreground color to #e8ddfc and with
the Brush Tool selected (soft brush, opacity: 10%) apply brush to face.
Change layer blending mode to Color.
Duplicate layer “hair”. Move on top of all layers and change blending mode to Overlay.
Select Brush (diameter of around 3-4px) and draw new hair with white
(if you have a graphics tablet use it). Check next screenshots.
Merge both “hair” layers into one. After that select the Smudge Tool
(Strength: 65%) and use the Spatter 59px which is one of the standard
Photoshop brushes to make the hair smoother and more realistic looking.
Duplicate the layer with Ctrl+J and move it a little bit.
Create a new layer again. Choose the Brush Tool (Soft brush with
opacity 10-20%) and paint over sections of the hair, where the largest
amount of hair is present. Once done, select the Eraser Tool (Opacity:
35%) to clear a little bit where the hair ends.
Create a new layer on top of previous layer and change layer mode to
Color. Select some very bright color for the eyes and paint slightly.
To finish off the tutorial we have to remove the button from the
clothes. Create a new layer and select the Clone Stamp Tool (select the
parameter Sample All Layers) and remove the button using this tool.
