PW121 - Tutorial 18, Chapter 3 - Draganize a Portrait

Thursday, April 15, 2010 at 9:42PM The final chapter of our Photoshop CS4 tutorial showing how to create a Dragan effect using a portrait. In this chapter we create the gritty high contrast effect so characteristic of Dragan's work along with some colour work to give the image character. We finish our work with a little more dodging and burning through the draganizing layers to get the precise draganized effect we're looking for.

Hi John,
would you mind sending me the original photo? I would like to try my take on it. It does not even need to be in a very big resolution.
Thanks,
Martin

Thanks guys - glad you enjoyed this one. Do me a favour - if you liked it please blog it/tweet it/pass the link on to your friends. It would help me out big time!
Martin - I'll get all the source files uploaded to the site for this and all the old tutorials soon. Sorry for the delay - this is getting pushed aside by the creation of new tutorials. :)
Hi Join,
great Tutorial, thanks so much for your work. I will do an article on our project-page for sure.
