dark. jacob black blend
oh no not another twilight graphic!
dedicated to: jen, shae, kara and chloe.
note: i have not given any links to the pictures used in this blend, i would love it if you used your own. any problems with this banner pm me immediately.
we will be making: 
skills that are needed: the crash course. gradients. and other stuff.
1. The first step into making the Jacob blend is to open a canvas with 700 and 500 pixels, once you have your empty blend fill it in #000000. After filling in the blend it should be pitch black, then make a new layer (layer > new > layer) and use any kind of a background picture, but its better if its dark and paste it into the right side of the canvas. Mess around with the burn tool to make sure you get a gothic look.
2. Once you have the ‘base’ of the blend you can begin bringing the other pictures together. Open a new layer and take a picture paste it on the right side of the canvas, sharpen it and fade (Edit > Fade) to 45%, open up a new layer and paste another picture beside the picture you put in the right.
3. Now is the time I used the selective colouring.
WHITES:
Cyan = -27%
Yellow = +17%
Then go to Auto Levels (Image > Adjustments > Auto Levels) and then Auto Contrast (Image > Adjustments > Auto Contrast). After you’re done with that you can begin to sharpen the blend and fade it to 85%.
After that mess around with the selective colouring again.
REDS:
Cyan = -27%
Magenta = +12%
4. OK, when you done that you can open a new layer and make a gradient map, #6F4343 and #5643648 soft light 54%. When done with the open a new layer and use any kind of texture use the layer mask to blend it in. Then I used olho di boi, font size 300, colour # C6C2C4, fade it too 82%, then rotate the text (Edit > Transform > Rotate) and last and foremost use the drop shadow, multiply, 100%. And put the quote beneath the main font and do the same techniques for the man text.
With the finishing touches again selective colouring.
YELLOW:
Cyan = +19%
Magenta = -16%
Yellow = +16
Black = +13
5. And finally its finished >.< If you could show me your versions of the blends it would be dashing *waveslikethequeen* |
