| Original Photograph |
For my Fantasy Avatar, I started with a
photograph I found online (I had hoped to use a photograph of my daughter, but did not have a good digital camera available). I found out later that this is a photograph of a Hungarian actress.
For the eyes, I followed the steps outlined in the Avatar Na’vi – Photoshop CS6 Tutorial, including feathering, moving the reference point, and increasing the size to 116% width & height. The nose was flattened and elongated using the bloat and warp tools. The color of the irises was changed by adjusting hue/saturation, brightness/contrast, and color balance. Her skin color and texture, lips and sparkle effect were also achieved by using the guidelines in the tutorial. For the markings on her skin I decided I did not want to utilize the same type of markings used in the tutorial, so I used a tattoo template, and modified it to remove extra components that weren’t needed. I added the tattoo below her neck as a final touch as I thought the composition could use a bit more detail. A photo of a rainforest was used in the background, with a dark vignette effect around the border. I’m not entirely satisfied with the transition around her hair - and need to hone my skills in this area - but overall I am pleased with the result.
