Dr Who!

HELLO! *hug*

Another tutorial (This is becoming a daily occourance...) of David Tennant, playing Dr Who. In cool 3D glasses :D

Going from this to

Made in PSP7, not too sure whether it's translatable... (Any ideas PS/GIMP users?)

*sings*

Hello :)
Obviously, you need to crop, sharpen, blah, blah, blah...
Done? Good. :)
Now you need to Make a new layer, and fill with #0000FF ie, blue. Once you've done that tedious task, you need to get Mr Eraser Tool, and erase (surprisingly enough...) everything but the blue lense in his 3D glasses.
Do the same again, but fill the layer with #FF0000 ie, red, and erase everything but the red lense.
Right, got that? Hooray! Now you've gotta merge the layers together.

Now it gets a bit more compilercated :P
Make a new Colour Balance Adjustment layer. I suspect that this will need to vary depending on your image, but my settings are as follows... (I've always wanted to say that :D )

Shadows: 49, 45, -29
Midtones: 42, -24, 36
Highlights: -35, -26, 36

Right, complicated bit over. Phew *wipes brow*

Now, you've gotta insert this texture from confusedlunatic

Set the layer to Darken, and erase the bits of text on Dr Who with, again, surprisingly enough, Mr Eraser Tool.

Finally, insert a new layer and fill with #FF00FF. Set to Hue, and adjust opacity to 55.
Ta-Dah :)
Done :)
Comment and show me what you got! Coz you're wonderful like that :)
Oh, and if you got any quetions, ask away, my friend, ask away...
