Basically the same way people would digitally colorize a BW photo, WW2 in color style. To get extra fancy you can search alpha channels and color masks, to see how using the eraser/paintbrush to slowly change from one color to another can be done. Doing this you can apply color to only one layer at time. To select the layers go to the menu at the bottom right and select the images with the eyeballs next to them.

Layers can be raised or lowered, in order, or have different adjustments made to them. Otherwise the new thing will paste into the current layer. I mentioned that in the other guide, but it's a good one to remember. When you paste something into your image click the floating selection in the layer menu on the lower right, and choose "To New Layer" from the drop down menu to give it a home. If you need to bring these back in line clickħ4f71665-af8d-41ee-b5b9-b0231f7d99e8-image.png When you copy one image into another Layers at different sizes will show a yellow highlighted marquee where the edges are. To cut canvas away rather than extending.Į8d22bb1-e9da-42c2-8357-d8015df29db2-image.png This is also a quick way to control your crops by using the px entered.

You can also position where the new canvas will be by centering or dragging the rectangle in the mini. Here you can clip or expand the transparency. This can help later if you need to add a thicker contour or want to light the unit like with actual shadows, so you don't clip at the edge of the canvas. One thing I forgot to mention, basic but which is helpful is to leave a little room to play when you set your canvas sizing. It's nice to start larger, just cause it's easier to make out what's there and to apply transformations when it's bigger so you don't get too much fuzz. Or if the starting image has a very different look, you can also adjust opacity/saturation or add a quick contour to carve it out. The more visual information you find at the outset the more stuff can be noodled. But to punch him up you could add more colors, and really finesse the contour part, spend a bit more time blending or creating contrast and such.įor sure! If you got him that'd be fun to see the starting point.
