1. Introduction: Hey guys, my name is Dmitry, and this cell already has heard class. And they will be dedicated to creating a cartoon effect in Adobe Photoshop. For this class, you can use just a regular photo of someone or yourself. Just make sure it's a good quality photo. You'll need an Adobe Photoshop CS free for newer for this effect. And as always, all the photos that were used in the glass will be attached. You can practice and it repeats step-by-step. I would also like to mention that all the photos I'm using in this class were downloaded from Pexels.com. You can search for images there and download them for free. One last thing I wanted to mention is that I have two other classes you might want to check out. I actually never expected that people who watch my classes. So thank you very much, everyone. And let's begin. 2. Creating The Effect: We're all born with this photo for a car to an effect. First of all, we need to remove the background. And for that we have a cool fewer shirt that was already used in previous classes. Let's select subject and masked it. As you can see, it does a great job. Next step is to make a big head. So it looks like a cartoon character. For that, we need to select their head and copy it and paste it. I will use LSAT for that. Make sure that current layer is selected because you won't be able to copy the head from the mask. So now we have a new layer with head, but we still don't need the background. Let's just do the same process and Select Subject. But this time, instead of masking, it will go just deleted. Let's object, so lets the head. So if you'll press Delete now, it will do it the **** to do it, everything besides the head, we need to invert this selection. Now you can press Delete and control D to deselect. Now we finally can make a bigger Control T to resize and ablaze the hat. There's not enough space for this hand, so we will also name this picture bigger using crop tool. Next step is to liquid by the face. So it's not just big, but also looks like a cartoon character. Liquefied doors indicates all the parts o to face and allows you to adjust those in size. I like to make big eyes and mouth and decreased and no size a bit. You can play with settings and see what works best for you. After it's done, Let's figure head selection because it's not accurate. Now we need to liquefy the body too. After liquefying the body, we've got those unneeded background parts into it, but that's fine. We can teach that in less than ten seconds, the same way, we delete the background from the head. We're getting closer to the end effect. And for that we need to apply an oil filter to the image. Once again, you can play around with the settings and see what works best for you. Now apply shadows and highlights to the head sold hair looks better. Now we need to apply the oil paint effect to the body too. And it's better to use the same settings you applied for the head. Now it's freedom much done, but we don't have a background. So let's make one. For this one, I will use a gradient effect. It's very simple, but in the same time, it looks cool. You can use any color you want, but I like to use colors that are already in there. So there's some logic and it looks smoother. Of course. Let's add a solid white. One last thing we need to do is to as curves. It's finally done. Let me show you the before and after. Now. I think the effect of severity, cool. 3. Conclusion and Project Gallery: Now you should be able to create a cartoon effect on your own. If you found this class interesting, I recommend you to go along with me and try step-by-step. As I said in the beginning, I will attach this image I have used in this class. We can try it yourself. And also, I would highly appreciate few uploaded your results in the project gallery. I will be more than happy to see your results and also, don't forget to share this class with people who are interested in Adobe Photoshop. There are so many good tricks you can do in this program. So let me know if you'd like this one and I will create more classes for you. Have a good day. Bye.
