Final Image Preview

1.Step

Lets start with the beautiful stock photo of a girl/model. Here I used the stock from shutterstock and cut out the model using Pen tool or using channel. I generally used Pen tool and then use channels for hair extraction. There are lots of tutorials available on the net for cropping, just follow any of them.

2.Step

Download some grungy backgrounds available on Deviantart and Sxc.hu, place them. What I did I extract the model and I use that background only. It has grungy texture.

Next I made a new layer and fill it with Diagonal gradient of colors: 621f80 and 00b4e5. Erase some part mainly the face and body and change the blending option to Soft light and opacity to 90-95%

Duplicate the gradient layer and reduce its opacity to 45%. Now it looks much better. You can use any of the gradient combination of your choice, it will give different results .

3.Step

Create a new layer and then apply image. Make another layer and use splatter brushes. You can find splatter brushes on many sites. I used Hi-Res Splatter Brushes by Bittbox. It doesn’t matter which color use now. Now hide this layer and make a new layer apply image and then unhide the splatter layer then go to Layer -> Create clipping mask or (Alt + Ctrl + G). What it will do is that the current layer will be masked only where is the brush. Now select Move tool and move the image

after applying the Glowing Edges Filter select the layer and go up to Image -> Adjustments -> Invert or press (Shortcut: CTRL + I). This should change the entire layer into white and black, change the blending options of the layer to Multiply or divide in CS5 lower down the opacity to 15%. It will give you more intensity to the colors.

Its time to add some circles to the background, create a new layer and grab your Elliptical tool. Draw a selection on the canvas that corresponds with the flow of the image. After you have drawn your selection go to the little half filled icon on your Layers Panel at the bottom and select Pattern. I selected a skew line pattern to fit into the motion of the image.
