Kakashi Icon Tutorial

Hello All,
So here i am attempting my first tutorial ^.^ (Plz be nice hehehe)
We shall be seeing how we make this lovely icon of kakashi 


Photobucket 

Step 1:
With the background layer, duplicate it.
Overlay the background layer copy.
Desaturate the original background layer.
I had changed the background layer copy to 92% Fill, however each image is different so play around until you get what think is nice.

Step 2:
Add a new layer and fill it with black.
Change the blend mode of the Black layer to overlay.

Step 3:
Duplicate the Black layer, change the blend mode of the 2nd black layer to normal. 
With the 2nd black layer erase some black around the area where Kakashi's head is, use the soft round brush (which is part of the photoshop brushes) so you can get a fading look.

Step 4:
Now for the text.
I used the font Tw Cen MT Condensed Bold, and wrote 'MYSTERIOUS'
And placed it at the bottom of the icon and cutting a bit of the text at bottom.
I also added some small text on top of the main text.
Basically you guys can place anything you want as the text ^.^

Final Product:

Here is the psd file if it will help ^.^

I decided to use an icon that was simple to do for my first tutorial cause i have no idea how to write one hahaha, so if there is any holes in here or something let me know.
