Zombie-Laya

This is an image of me as a zombie. I created this using Photoshop. First, with the image I took of myself, I highlighted my skin using the Quick Selection tool. Then in the top menu I go to Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation to change my skin tone. Oh, also be sure to get areas with hair so the skin visible under the hair is also colored. I modify the Hue mostly to get a greenish-yellowish color. When I settle on a skin tone, I leave it alone. Moving on to the eye area, I burn the bags under my eyes with the Burn tool, along with half my face and the neck area.

For every added feature, I create a new layer and insert whatever mark I want, such as blood stain or cuts. For my neck, I snagged an image of neck muscles, and fixed it to shape my neck. I create a layer mask to hide anything extra hanging off or abrupts my jawline. I then use the Smudge tool to merge the end of the image with my neck. For the bite mark on the other side of my beck, I snag a picture of a bite mark, make a layer for it, and Darkened it to the background.
