Warning.....Never sunbake on a road in winter. It is not a good place to sunbake. Wrong season for it too. If you do feel compelled to do such a thing, make sure you look out for stray trains which should not be on the snow covered road. (5 years and 245 days ago)

Pretty cool chop. Must have been a pain in the butt to cut out that train.

author says:

Thanks BWR. The train was not too hard to cut out using channel masks. Thankfully the sky and the top of the train had good contrast.
Channel masks are great.

Channel masks say the computer moron?! WOW will have to look that one up. I think this is a smack dab great entry on many levels. The technical is to my eyes very well done and I can see the shadow of hat on snow and it is correct. I also am taken with the colour palette, blue of course is cool and the icing on this well baked cake is that hat and arm....huh?! OUTTA place or what?!

Thanks Olga. If you are unsure about channel masks, check this tutorial....

Channel masks work best on images with good contrasting areas.

**MADE FROM SOURCE ONLY**.

Background was round brushes with some of the built in "Splatter" brushes in PS. Mountains are again round brushes that were blurred. Sky is also brushed. Snow made from several layers of white brushed circles. Some have Gaussian Blur. Some have Motion Blur. Some have both. Rudolf was made using the stuffed animal from the source. Rudolf\'s socks were made from his scarf as well as that "frilly" stuff on the blanket. The saddle/harness was made using the brown chair back on the left side. The built in "Hair" (or grass) brush was used for masking as well as some of the Splatter Brushes for the feet. Hope you like it. (5 years and 486 days ago)

Start with the snow background. Place snowy trees on another layer and overlay with 50% opacity. Cut out crow, wolf, costume, face and position in scene. Adjust colors, contrast, levels etc to make all the hues match.Merge all layers, use oil filter to give a painted look to the image. Add a layer of snow using snow brushes. Add text and text effects shown on the youtube tutorial. (5 years and 843 days ago)
