I’m also adding a bit of grain that wasn’t in the original filter (but should have!). I got these birdies from Pixabay Desaturationįirst we want to increase the contrast and lower the saturation of the image.

So let’s start by duplicating the base layer ( CTRL+J) and desaturate it ( CTRL+SHIFT+U).

#Krita deselect freeįeel free to select any method you like, I used Min. Now bring up Curves Adjustment ( CTRL+M) to increase the contrast and squeeze them into an S shape. Below are the reasons your eraser tool does not seem to work in Photoshop: 1. Let’s also bring up the contrast in the original layer. You may have accidentally selected part of your image or forgot to deselect it. You may have used either the marquee tools, lasso tools, magic wand, or quick selection tools. Apply the same curves adjustment.įinally, enable the black and white layer again and lower its opacity to around 50% Hide the black and white one, and select the first layer. Now, let’s also add some film grain to give it a more vintage feel. There are two ways we can add film grain. The best one is to just grab a film grain scan. These are actual blank films, usually 35mm or 8mm.

You can find a couple of film grain scans here. Just download the images and drop them as a new layer in Krita. You can find more of them online, and there paid options too (mostly for film makers). If you don’t feel like downloading, you can try using the noise filter. This doesn’t look as realistic but it does the trick. Start by adding a new layer and fill it with black. Now go to the Filter menu, and then Noise. Apply the effect with the default settings. Finally, change the blending mode to Soft Light and lower the opacity to about 15%. Now it’s time to add that classic warm tint. Add a new filter layer and select gradient map. Change the colors to be violet ( #1e1224) on one end, and orange ( #dd6522) in the other. Click OK and set the blending mode of this layer to Soft Light. Let’s complete the effect with a vignette effect. In photography, vignetting is a reduction of an image’s brightness toward the periphery compared to the center. They are often added to an image to draw interest to the center and/or to frame the center portion of the photo.

You can use the Vignette effect from G’Mic ( Filter > Start G’mic QT) which is a one-click solution, but you would have to merge all layers first.
