The first two in this series I did a little while ago, and had the accented colors more green and blue. This one abbove uses a bit more red, as you can see. It is fairly simple to tint images that Black and White, or close to it. I usually duplicate the first layer a few times, and name the new layers so I can keep better track of them.<br /><br />On the first skin tone layer I simply added red, magenta, and yellow to the layer (while it is in RGB mode). Then I use a layer mask to "paint" in the portion of that layer I want.<br /><br />http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3657/3592831789_0f72455379_o.jpg<br />http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3378/3592819377_23280cb3a6_o.jpg<br /><br />I added green to the Robe layer, and applied it as "soft light" blending mode, with some adjusted opacity. <br />http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3643/3592819283_b93d101470_o.jpg<br />http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2457/3593626652_298eabcda4_o.jpg<br /><br />I pushed the red alot for the Skin Tone 2 layer, and applied this as soft light, again using layer masks. I repainted the statues face. This is some thing I have been working on....this may help you with that.<br />http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3310/3592819139_a54673ef56_o.jpg<br /><br />I shot the statue in all kinds of angles, so it can be viewed in many different ways.
