![]() ![]() Grow the size by several pixels (50 pixels in the example) and fill it with a dark red (dry blood color). Select the draw (select the alpha then invert the selection). Then adjust the two layers opacity to get a dark result tending to the red.ĭuplicate again the Layer 1. Then blur it for some pixels (20 to 40 in the example). Select the "Copy of Layer 1" layer, menu Filter->Adjust->Color Balance, increase the Red and decrease the other colors for the shadows and mid-tones to get a dark red color. Right click on Layer 1 and duplicate the layer. To make it seem that the tattoo was done recently we will add some red skin effects. Select the color that is the lightest (the color selection tool can help) and the threshold that makes the dark part a bit transparent but not too much. The fake tattoo is done with dark ink, so the white is the skin. Now we need that this draw seems directly applied on the skin. When finished, select both the layers, right click and Merge with layer below. Repeat the operation until you get a satisfying result. Select the contour only again, grow the selection by few pixels (the order of magnitude of the overall natural draw blur), then menu Filter->Blur->Gaussian blur, and select about half of the selection grow done before. It's better, but this contour is too distinct. Select the darkest point in the draw with the Color Selector Tool and fill the new contour with it. Return to the Layer 1 and select again the draw (select the alpha, invert selection), go back to the Layer 2 and suppress the selection. You have to select the "Fill entire selection" in the Tool Options. Then select the Layer 2 and fill the selection in white with the fill tool. Then grow it by few pixels: menu Select->Grow Selection (2 in this example). With the magic wander, select the background then invert the selection to select the draw only. First of all, create a new layer on the bottom right of the window. In the current result we have quite a thin (even nonexistent) contour. To do a tattoo, first of all, the artist does the contour, then he fills it up. For this example I used simply strength=0 and smoothness=0. ![]() Play with the strength and smoothness to get a satisfying result. The tool I generally use, and that always gave me satisfaction for this kind of work, is in Filter->G'MIC menu->Colors->Metallic look. The easiest way to do it is to select the alpha layer background with the magic wander, then menu->invert selection. But G'MIC offer so many possibilities that you should find out the best for you.įirst of all, you have to select only the draw you want to put black and white (some tools turn the alpha layer to black or white). There are a lot of tools to make this draw black and white, and the example here might not be applicable to every draw. Remove everything useless until you have a picture similar to the shown one below. It represents the alpha layer which figures transparency in the current layer. Then push the "supr" key, a checkerboard should appear. Do not forget to deselect the anti-aliasing option in the "tool options" tab. Select the contiguous selection tool (the magic wand) and try to select the background board and everything you want to remove. This is the basics, one of the first things we try when we want to play with pictures editing. In this example we will start with two pictures: the tattoo original image and a photo of a back: Useful to get a preview, or to do some stupid jokes. This tutorial describes how to use krita to make appears a tattoo on the skin. I'll introduce here the various (only one for now) works I did with this tool set. G'MIC is a full-featured open-source framework for image processing, distributed under the CeCILL license.īy combining these two, you can get a nice alternative to PhotoShop, even if it gets less fully automatized tools, you can do everything with quite a user-friendly and complete interface. Krita is designed to be a digital painting application distributed under the GPLv2 license. ![]() Krita is a raster graphics editor based on Qt 5 and the KDE Frameworks 5.
