Adding body paint or similar effects to a photo is frankly a doddle if
you use layers.
Step 1:
- Take an original image
- Create a new layer above it. You should still be able to see your original image
in the layer below.
Step 2:
- In the new layer, paint in black to create your new face paint.
- Because you are working in a new layer, you can remove any mistakes or trials
by simply erasing the offending pixels.
- I find working with the Wacom Pen Pad, with pressure sensitivity set to width
gives me greatest flexibility here.
- Now, what you'll see is that your new black paint is very obviously painted on.
You need to apply a gaussian blur to your new layer, just to fuzz the edges and blend
them more realistically to your photo.
Step 3:
- Final image looks like this.
