Awkward tutorial time 

Someone asked me to make a tutorial, so I’m gonna show you how to make this.

You should probably have a basic knowledge of blending and stuff. If you wanted to learn about that I’m not the person to go to.
I’m gonna be using this picture of Armie Hammer and this picture of Jennifer Damiano because they’re pretty, and it’s my tutorial so I do what I want. I would advise using pictures that are similar quality and coloring….ignore the fact that the two photos I chose are not the same quality and Armie’s picture is crazy sharp.

1. Open a new canvas. I’m using 500x500 but you could make it whatever size you want. Then position the photos however.

2. Take a soft edge eraser and erase the edges of picture 2 that cover up picture 1.

3. Make a new layer. With a soft brush basically just fill up the background. The color you use kind of depends on the picures, there was light green in Armie’s picture which is why I used it.

4. Take this texture, set it to color burn, erase the parts that cover photos 1 and 2. Take this texture, set it to screen, and once again erase the parts that cover the photos.

5. Take this texture and set it to screen. Erase the parts that cover their faces. I also erased the outer edges of the texture.

6. Next is the coloring. Some people color all the pictures individually, but I’m lazy and I just color the entire thing at once. To get the kind of “glowy” effect I copy and paste the entire graphic and duplicate it twice. The first duplicated layer is sharpened, set to softlight, and 50% oppacity. The second duplicated layer I did a gaussian blur and then set it to softlight.

7. Then you color it with whatever coloring you use.

8. Lastly is the text. I used LeviBrush and Pea Carrie Script. Then you’re done/
