Create a Horrific Flesh Eating Movie Poster in Photoshop CS6

Step 7

OK once we have refined and detailed our painting, lets bring in this other image to add some nasty rotting effect on the skin. Open it up, bring it on a new layer, then scale and rotate as shown here.

Step 8

Make a duplicate of this layer and scale it down as shown here

Step 9

Now we will do as with the texture of flesh, so grab the clone tool and this time cover the skin next to the flesh as shown here. Yet only for the hand and mouth. Then set the layer mode to multiply.

Step 10

Then lets adjust the color balance directly as shown here and create a mask for the layer.

Step 11

Then use the brush with black and mask off to delimit the texture only closest to the edge, then set the layer mode to multiply and reduce the opacity to 80%

Step 12

Then lets readjust the color balance a bit more to get this result.

Step 13

Now make another duplicate and scale it down; then use the clone tool again to cover the rest of the face as shown.

Step 14

Set the layer mode to multiply and adjust the color balance as indicated here.

Step 15

Then of course make a mask for the layer and mask of as shown here.

Step 16

Lets grab the original piece of skin and warp it a little as shown here.

Step 17

Set the layer to multiply and once again use the clone tool to fill up the rest as shown here.

Step 18

And as we have done adjust the color balance and use the mask to eliminate most of it.

Step 19

And finally grab all these three layers and merge them into one. And the resulting layer set it back to multiply.

Step 20

OK so now what we need to do is detail all the painting and mostly the edge to merge with all the textures and bring out some detail that is a bit hidden by the textures themselves. So just sample color as we have done and paint in the detail.

Step 21

Make sure you give some thickness to the skin as it doesn’t look cutout.

Step 22

And also adding some darker detail that goes into the rotting skin also helps blend everything.

Step 23

Yet very important be sure you work with the texture following the features it provides as shown here. And that is it, we concluded yet another section in our tutorial.
