I’ve been learning and practicing a lot over this last month so I decided to revisit an old ninjago shot of Zane and see what changes I can make. I was pretty happy with the original shot but at the time I hadn’t learned anything about photoshop. Here is the original image (for those who haven’t seen it on my instagram).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
My first job in photoshop was to select the eyes to really make them stand out. I used a colour fill layer to make them white, then added some gaussian blur (only set to 4). In the layer style options I added a glow to add drama to the image. My goal was to make Zane look more intense, as if he was riding into battle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
Next I placed a lens flare on the top third of the image. Initially it went across the front of his face, so I used a mask to remove that and make it a background effect. The original flare was a bit too blue for my taste so I used a hue\/saturation layer to make it a bit lighter and closer to the ice feel I was going for. (He is the ice ninja after all.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
Lastly, I needed so atmosphere so I used a sparks image. Again I used to hue\/saturation layer to change it from sparks to more blue and therefore ice. Using the black foreground colour I painted out the sparks on his face and – at a 50% opacity – reduced the sparks on his body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
I hope you like the final image. I like how some quick edits can give an old image new life. Now it’s time to play with Zane and take down Lord Garmadon<\/a>.<\/p>\n
