Simple edit #4 (Topaz+Sharpening;)

I’m always getting questions about my topaz settings, so I made a whole tutorial, haha.

Preview:

First, open your picture.  I got here for Jennifer and here for One Direction.  You’ll have to register for katniss-peeta to get the pictures.

Crop it how ever you want it.  If it’s one picture I usually use 500x600; 500x500; 500x400; If it’s for a photo set, two in a row, I usually use 245x245; 245x300;  The example above is 245x300;

Now for the topaz.  If you don’t have it, check here.  She has a download link plus how to install it with no problem.

Go to Filter>Topaz Labs>Topaz Clean.  Another window should pop up.  These are my Topaz settings.

Go to filter>sharpen>smart sharpen.  Click here for my settings.

For the sharpening, I usually mess around with the amount.  I don’t change anything else.

For the coloring, I used this PSD.  I used the color on Jen, and I used the gradient on Harry.  You can choose any coloring, or make your own.  I go to drunkandcoloring if I download any psds, or truesoulspsds.  I also make some, if you would like to check them out.

I also used a texture.  I used this one.

Just drag it over to the picture, and I set it to lighten.  If you set it to screen, that looks good also.

Finished product:

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask. :3
