Radiant Photoshop: Xmas Snow Miku 1:8 GSC?!

Almost every year, I take an existing figure, and turn it into a Christmas themed version using Photoshop. This year is no different.

I really wanted a 1:8 scale Snow Miku, but since that's probably never going to happen, I decided to make my own!

A youtube video of it being made:

Merry Christmas everyone!

      Thanks!

      All of it was doing masks with color adjustments. The masking takes a long time, since I'm painting the masks in.

    That is awesome! So, you made several layers and added a mask over it? :D

      Yeah. It's an "alternative" way instead of using adjustment layers. Some filters simply aren't available as adjustment layers. ^^

        I never ever tried adjustment layers before. D:
        I would normally cutout parts instead >_>

        I should really use Masking more often lol

          Adjustment layers and masks are SO useful. It's non-destructive, meaning you can simply delete the adjustment layer, or delete the mask, and your original image remains intact.

          You can also use masks to "un-erase" parts of your image, so to speak.
